DIARY  3rd December  Dick reminded me that there is a Holts sale coming up soon, and his catalogue is 5. Ill have to have a look. Holts got kicked out of their Hammersmith venue Ive heard two stories, one that the young Duke of Westminster wants it for a flat, and the other that the regiment that used it has amalgamated with several others and needs it full time. Anyway the next sale is at Blackheath,  to the South East of London more or less on the M2. I will have to remember to prepay the Dartford crossing fee   I went in to Screwfix Manor today for a bit and ripped out most of the wiring that is redundant or will be replaced the pile in the photo is about 23 of it   Ill have to start putting it back next week when a bit more painting has been done Giles is busy with that every spare moment. I found a horrific piece of electrical stupidity today There was a cord pull switch in the bathroom as there should be but obviously at some time the switch had broken, as they do fairly often, so someone had carefully wired a torpedo switch on the end of a cable across the original contacts, so you now had to grip a small switch with live wires inside while in the bathroom. The appalling thing about it was that the workmanship looked professional December  Another month gone, and still labouring on the flat, which should now be renamed Screwfix Manor on account of the amount spent at Screwfix on an almost daily basis  Anyway I did have a couple of days off last week for the Bonhams auction. I bought a John Manton double flint gun that was listed as a reconversion, as it looks as if it will make a fine shooter. I had had a good look at it and decided that there were more questions that answers concerning its various bits, but the barrels had a lot of meat, and the locks were strong, so it would do it has a case that is more or less right and a trade label for John Manton that is a few years later than the gun. Looking at it carefully I see that the cocks are very slightly different, and the lock plates were engraved by different people, so I cant be sure the locks were not remade, probably using original tumbler, sear etc. We shall see how it shoots when I get a chance to try it. Whoever remade it did a rather good job not just on this gun but on many of the guns from the Paul Murray collection in Thursdays auction. I had a muzzle loading shoot on Friday near Sudbury with 7 other guns which was most enjoyable, the weather holding off and not getting really cold until the last drive. I realised that my success rate at partridges French  is substantially better than at pheasants Im not sure why, but it may be that generally pheasants  announce their arrival and give you lots of time to shoot, whereas partridges seem to be on you in a flash, and the less time I have to think about it the better I shoot. There was one strange problem on the shoot one percussion gun failed to fire its caps the nipples were rather large and the caps didnt fit very far on, but the cocks didnt seem to push them down fully. The mystery was that this gun had been regularly used in its present form on many shoots without a moments problems. We tried several makes of caps but it didnt make any difference we didnt have time to make any detailed diagnosis before the second drive, but fortunately I had a couple of normal 14 BSF nipples and a nipple key in my bag, and that solved the problem but Id love to know why the problem arose   Next week is a big push at Screwfix Manor as Giles wants to be able to move in, at least partially, by the middle of December, and I am under notice that I have to be available for more mundane get ready for Christmas duties at home although to be honest I think a couple of days should be enough for that, but I darent say so. At the moment all the wiring in the flat is hanging down as the lights and trunking are removed of course technically it will all be the original wiring replaced, with just a few extensions to the ring circuits as permitted under the regs    Onwards and upwards, no peace for the wicked.
