"‘Tin Tin’ Receives Exclusion Notice From Police Banning Him From Newcastle City Centre!

Why was a Community Protection Warning issued?

The warning follows an accumulation of reported incidents and evidence concerning a pattern of behaviour towards members of the public, including alleged harassment, intimidation, threats of violence, bullying, and the mocking or exploitation of vulnerable individuals.

This is not simply an issue of filming in a public place. The concern is the conduct associated with that filming and its impact on members of the public.

Away to a weekend event in a couple of weeks and started the beer fund today

From my dumpster diving and scrapping activities built up around 3kg of lower grade scrap copper and brass ready for a smelt on Sunday if the weather stays suitable to work outside. Will most likely end up as bars/bullion. Meaning to have a go at sand casting at some point but wonder where people are getting their patterned bullion moulds from as having difficulty finding similar here in the UK?

Pics of early attempts and smelter before I discovered it's a really good idea to smelt outdoors yo avoid fumes and pissing off the other half 😉

Spotted a guy painting a picture of one of the houses opposite The Cafe under the spire.

Been thinking of having a go at smelting but never had enough for a smelter until today I was browsing around the local car boot sale and saw this.

£25. Had to have it.

Honestly at that price I'm kind of surprised it worked. The guy selling it said he'd tried ewaste gold and silver recovery but rapidly lost interest.

Just had a quick go at making my first Ingot out of a bit of old aluminum I had lying about and I'm over the moon with it.

Tomorrow I'll try some copper but it's definitely an out door activity as my good lady has pointed out due to the smell 😁

Just seen this while scrolling Facebook

Usually find a couple in the skip when I'm digging for no.1 started saving them to dismantle myself as they have a little copper and brass in them but now found a yard that buys them as "dirty aluminum". A few people have said sell them as they are however as I'm taking them out of a skip, I've no idea about testing them and they're a safety device wouldn't want the hassle

Wish we knew when it was from

Spent a few hours stripping with before and after pictures. Final weight is just the wire I picked up yesterday not including a bit of copper pipe and brass

Spending a few days in the lakes with family.
