Hello John & GM Gadge
This has been a fascinating read.
Many thanks for the great images - they help explain how these beasts
worked.
I have written about how the lawnmower contributed to the great outdoors -
by making many sports possible and popular ... and the recreation through
public spaces and parklands. The great outdoors.
But food and fire bring aesthetics to the great indoors.
I have fond memories of my grandparents' wood stove, and my uncle's
coke(?) powered job. The food always tasted ... 'different'... better.
I guess things do go better with coke ...
Many thanks to you both for your vast knowledge and links.
I'm sure members will benefit.
