Day 65

Still feeling rough, apathetic and uninspired.  So no stories and just one contrived indoor photo.  I read about this effect on a website today so had to try it. It utilises the effect of polarising light & is quite dramatic.

Ah! I have had a second wind and taken one more photo. Our Daily Challenge was "aged" so here is my oldest book, a medical dictionary printed in 1757.  As well as medicine it includes bits of physics, natural history etc.  Needless to say it contains some very interesting snippets.  As a teenager I avidly read the entry entitled  "Generation, parts of, particular to men " In the second paragraph of which, it mentions "the penis, or yard" !!!!! Men obviously aren't what they used to be!

Final comment on this.  I've just realised the printing of this book was before Captain Cook discovered Australia & before the US Declaration of Independence! Impressive? Yeah!
