The church is made from ashlar faced sandstone.
The final piece in my new website jigsaw (at least for now) has been fitted, so to speak. The British Waterways section of the site is a companion to my waterways blog and will go more into depth* on the subject of Britain's canals with maps and historical information as well as photos. Go check it out and do some gongoozling!
* No pun intended!
This typewriter is similar to a few others in the collection, including the Silver-Reed Silverette. The Seventy is a nice compact little portable typewriter that is in remarkably good condition. When i first received it i thought it was brand new! It was only after a closer inspection that i could see there was a little wear and tear on it here and there, though not much. The typewriter looks like it has not been hardly used, if it has it has been, it has been very well cared for.
The Seventy types pretty well, a couple of keys on the fringes are a bit awkward but that might just require a little correction, usage or lubricant to loosen them. The Seventy only types in one colour (black).
The Seventy is one of the favourite typewriters in my collection. Indeed, a while ago on my old blog i listed the three typewriters i would take with me to a desert island and the Seventy was my third pick!
Yesterday, i returned to the east Midlands but this time went to Market Harborough in Leicestershire. I have been to the town once before but didn't visit the Grand Union Canal that time. My main aim on this trip was to rectify that omission and you can see my canal photos here. Other photographs of this pretty town can be seen here.
