Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

[kev]

I had an old carpenter friend who worked on the Anglican cathederal ,he knew masons who had worked their whole working life on that one building ,have you ever seen the carved mice in there ?

Have you ever read 'The Rolling Stonemason' an autobiography by Fred Bower?
A fascinating book.

I don't know if I do cope Fred It affects me mentally quite badly but I'm not taking myself out of the game just yet, it is hard I'll be honest. I just can't do anything about it so I try to let it affect me as little as possible as far as stopping me doing things but it's draining and does get me down.

Hello all. Greetings from Pizza Hut on the Mersey Retail Park, Speke. Quick lunch stop on the way to Dad's. @Gwladysover that is the sweetest thing I have ever heard. Enjoy the party. @Bluerover I'm very interested in your sstudies. I did a law and political theory module in my law degree. St Thomas Aquinas featured prominently. I'm also inspired by you @Terrarian llearning about history. You're both making me want to do something. I've always wanted to do an English A Level so I might sign up in September. @Armaghtoffee How's your back? I might try and join the GIF club later!

This is what I love about this thread ,it is a coffee house .I have not heard that story and was intrigued but of course as in any coffee house it reminded me of something .
The burying of the box and one previous topic which was about our contact if any with other beings from another planet .
I menioned at the time that Dave Allen had done a science based study on how many other planets "could be " inhabited by "humans " ,to cut this quite short they decided that there very well could be thousands but that even if they spoke a language we could communicate with that there was a 200 year window or that they may not understand .
Now to the point , they sent a box up in voyager in 1979 I think ,with a hieroglyphic showing our sun and nine planets and some way of identifiying Earth ,just a few years later it seems that Pluto is no longer a planet so that renders the drawing useless .
