Round Table Revisited

[just_me_karen]

And so Lord of the String said unto the peoples, "Go forth anew. Seek a land you can call your own."

The people saw it was good.

So, on the last day the people said their solemn goodbyes and began the long journey to the promised new land.

And so began the new land and its people were joyous!

Welcome, to the Return of the Round Table known as...

"Round Table Revisited" (RTR)

Mortar from oyster shells? That sounds interesting. Morgan Freeman is tracking down the kidnappers. Wish he'd hurry...I know he'll catch them in the end.

What they did was boil oyster shells until they changed into calcium/lime, then mixed it into a paste with water added sand and it held bricks together.

Wow, that's amazing, I didn't realise oyster shells would disintegrate.

Good evening Stringers 

Imagine how many oysters you would have to eat to get enough shells to tuck point a whole house

Now only a practical Aries would think of that LOL LOL

Looks like we might have our very own Stringer Imelda 

Hope you all had a good day - ours turned out to be very productive and it was such a beautiful day too.

Warning to all you t'othersiders - more of the hot stuff coming your way soon (sorry Prim)

Laney it looked as if one oyster shell was enough to make mortar for one pair of bricks. You can't help wondering how someone came across using the shells for that

[mtnlane]

I bet you thought of it too Prim lol lol

[mtnlane]

Back when they were using them Deb they would have to have been very inventive and willing to try anything I guess lol

[debra9275]
