Dear Members of the Sundial email list
I am Anthony Eden's elder daughter, and write following the email sent to
you by my sister in June telling you of our father's death.
Would you be kind enough to remove his name from your address list
now. We hope that we have kept his contact open
John,
Longer ago than I care to remember I attended lectures on building construction
and
remember that the fall needed for drainge was 1 in 400 for surface water, and 1
in 40
for sewage.The greater the fall the faster it drains, and I suspect the
figures I
have mentioned are minimum.
I
Pilkington and Gibbs Heliochronometers.
Yes, I am making a replica of the P G
Heliochronometer. In fact I have been making it for about four years or
more ! The trouble is that I have done all the easy bits, have been
in and out of hospital a few times since I began and am rather stuck
Tom,
As an old old timer I cannot resist the temptation, with tongue firmly in
cheek, to take you up on the meaurement of the diameter of a rod. Whether
it is accurate or precise, I do not know, but to me a rod is a lineal
measurement, and does not have a diameter.
