Just in case you wanted to know the story of how penicillin was discovered. after being horrified by problems with infected wounds in WW1 Alexander Fleming was researching a type of bacteria called staphylococcus. When he went on holiday in the summer of 1928 he came back to his famously untidy laboratory where the lid had come off one of the plates on which he was growing some staphylococcus. He noticed that it was contaminated by a fungus, (later thought to have drifted into his lab from another one upstairs where they were working on these fungi) and around the fungus was a clear ring where it had killed the bacteria. He eventually isolated what he later called penicillin, but it was largely ignored until 2 other scientists (Florey & Chain) took up its development in the 1940s funded by UK & US governments to treat injured soldiers. It was reserved for military use only and was only publicly available after the war. You can go and see his lab - which has been preserved as it was - in St Mary's hospital, Praed Street, London (well worth a visit. Thanks for the great videos - keeping me sane, motivated and inspired while I'm off work recovering from a serious hand injury

: ) a mans hide away perfect when you want to be by your self -in other words a man cave so to speak. if you were going to live in though you would need to put in a small space for clothes. when you first started building it I was thinking where is the rack for at least a few clothes -since you have a hanger all ready for your coat. So I been watching this video and seeing the tools you were sent and all I can think about is that bare wooden bed, do you plan on living in the little house? if so you will need some warm bedding for the winter time? I do remember you typing in the first video at the end that it was just made for to spend time with your dad which is so cool. How ever that bare bed is driving me crazy just thinking about it. Do you plan on using it for a hunting cabin or do you not hunt?

That is a snowstorm in England, is it? Sorry, I live in Canada, on average we can get as much as 2 meters of snow in a season where I live, sometimes we have to climb out of the attic and slide down to shovel out the door. Vancouver and Victoria get similar weather to you guys and for the same reason, ocean moderation. They too freak out over an inch or two of snow and it always makes the rest of us laugh. In my Best Crocodile Dundee imitation: That's not a Blizzard. THAT'S a Blizzard LOL I'll trade you a Canadian winter for a British winter any day of the year.

With swords 90% of the time the last third of the blade is what you're cutting with, so they started deliberately making the part closer to the hilt dull so the blade wouldn't get damaged as easily when blocking, parrying, riposting etc. As for the kind of sword that is, I think it'd be classified as a broadsword because of the basket hilt and the straight blade, though I'm not the say-all be-all of sword aficionados. At the time it might've been classified as a military saber, I don't know for certain, but sabers usually had a curved blade.

sword not as old as you think George V was King of the United Kingdom and the British Dominions, and Emperor of India, from 6 May 1910 until his death in 1936. Born during the reign of his grandmother Queen Victoria, George was third in the line of succession behind his father, Prince Albert Edward, and his own elder brother, Prince Albert Victor.

I know this is an old video, but what dd you ever find out about that sword? My first thought was still in the youtube realm, They should show it to Matt over at Scholgladiatora. He's another Englishman who i enjoying watching. Not a logical jump to make, I know, but hey, why not try to connect all the folks who are well versed in my varied interest.

I don't know the exact style of that sword but it was definitely made specifically for thrusting so probably from an era where full plate suits of armor were in use. If you want to know more I would suggest a youtuber by the name of Skallagrim Love the videos and look forward to many more, Cheers

Your Dad is amazing, I love people who grew up and never got the habit of being too cool to be enthusiastic. He's like a little kid and I bet that keeps him going for a VERY long time. Great Father/Son relationship, do NOT take it for Granted.
