Girding your loins, a few tips.

Post by Airspeed »

Preparation of Girding Iron after prolonged storage.
Do not commence this task without a well-nuxted grinter lamp; this will avoid a lot of merjouning and flaxilation later on.
Lubricate the fadding bar with a little chastised horswimple grease, available for a few pence from your local crowswindler's. Unfortunately, ours is temporarily closed due to a fire in the turking yard.
Using the blunt end of an old nipplegrater, nudge the panwheel tight against the truculent washer.
Mind that you do not catch your fingers on the serrated edge of the tyneside strap
Buff with exacerbated transgression oil, and your girding iron is ready to use.

I'm reminded of Professor Stanley Unwin's Worms of Wisdy.

Deep joy.
