A factory on fire? No just the Nescafe works at Hayes having a brew up.
It's a good job the coal boats were out and busy last week or we might have run out (of coal not coffee). They're doing a roaring trade in this freezing weather. We had the stove running 24 hours a day to keep warm in Paddington. Still, we were able to save battery by switching off the fridge and putting milk etc on the outside deck.
As ever we had a good time in the capital and deployed our bus passes to the max. I'm now getting quite expert on London buses and can't remember why I used to prefer the tube. A year or to back, if I was asked "What's the best way to Turnham Green?", I would probably have suggested a felt tip pen, but now I know it's a 27 bus :-)
Anyway, here's a puzzle for you. What is this object seen in the British Museum? 
Not a real camera obviously. I'll give you time to think and post the answer tomorrow.

First digital camera? Oh, wait, you said it wasn't a real camera. Hmm.
I think it should be pointed out that it is bigger than it looks. Much bigger than a real camera.
Kath
projector?
film prop, of some description?
Is it something to do with a remote island cargo-cult?
I can remember hearing somewhere about some remote islanders, who visited by explorers for the first time, made models of the previously unseen technology such as radios.
