    Foyle's War UK WW II period police drama

    My local public library has been getting episodes trickling in on DVD. I have them on hold before they even hit the general circulation. Just watched the Nazi sympathizer episode last night, GREAT show.

    I really needed to do it for ins. purposes anyway, as I misplaced the information when I did it last when I moved.

    Let's See Your Watches! The Vintage Watch Thread.

    Just went and pulled all the case backs. The pie-pan is a 1966 (assumption as it is a 24,000,000 SN, buth with a 561 movement) The chrono stop is a 1969 serial numbered 920(got that one right from memory) The Seamaster is a 1966 serial numbered 550 The bumper is 1944 serial numbered...

    You would be correct. The pie-pan is a 57 IIRC from the SN on the movement. The one on the right is a 42 IIRC "bumper" movement.

    Repro Toasters

    You don't have to be a rocket surgeon or a brain scientist ;) to rewire a toaster. They are about as simple a device as you can imagine.

    I'll dig them out when I get home as the proportions of ingredients eludes me W/O having the recipe in front me. The corn cakes are absolute CAKE to make, quick and easy. The spicy mayo is cake too. The tomatillo salsa is a bit more of a pain, especially if you don't have tomatillos fresh...

    Vintage Ice Cubes

    No kidding. I don't presently have an icemaker at my 80-year old home because I haven't bothered to buy a fridge with one, nor run a ice maker line, but that is both easy, and the 20-some years I/my family had fridges with ice makers, they never once clogged up.
