....we replaced blades in a razor instead of throwing away the whole plastic razor just because the blade got dull.

I had an uncle who had mastered the art of re-sharpening razor blades on a piece of "sea glass". How many other skills have been lost to time, along with common sense and imagination

At sea when doing weather reports to radio in we used a book containing pictures of clouds so we could give a more accurate description, a better guess of the cloud height etc. A lot of the photographs used had been taken ashore and featured chimney pots, rooftops and other non sea-going items. It was amazing how off-putting these were where there was no horizon.

When we were kids if a cat had unwanted kittens there was always some one with a bucket of water to drown them. This was usually done before the kittens became "lovable". It was surprising how many of us would magically appear at a drowning. The only cats in our neighbourhood belonged to somebody and we knew whose cat was whose.

I see the RSPCA, has an advertisement on this web site, but cant really see the point, I will explain.

With the ever growing numbers of dogs being discarded I see no point in the advert which says "We never put a healthy dog down" Why not ?
Surely it is the kindest option, if no one wants them. If I wanted to feed a dog (or any animal) I would have one. The daftest adverts are those saying adopt a polar bear etc. How do I know which one is mine?
Excuse me while I go out and hug a tree

Do they use staple guns then?

Yes they use a staple gun type of gadget.

I did apreciated them cutting around the navel, a friend of mine just had a cut straight across his in a downward direction. He still felt discomfort with it months and months afterwards.

God bless the NHS and all who work for it
