The accidental finding

Pipe of peace inhaler

Snapped at the museum, in the medical section. Although Sir Hiram Maxim is most famous for having invented the machine gun, he also helped countless people who had asthma, emphysema and hay fever, by inventing this early form of an inhaler.  See description here. http://www.sciencemuseum.org.uk/broughttolife/objects/display?id=5964

Thing is, we had gone to the museum to see some illustrations. What we actually saw was more like a pop up shop event, very busy and commercial. We couldn't really get any good shots there, so had a quick tour of our favourite parts of the Stroud Museum, before going for lunch at the Old Fleece.

Steve has now succumbed to the cold virus, and is lying down. Im not getting on very well with a jigsaw, and catching up on old episodes of This is Us. I've sort of lost interest in it. Also watched a DVD of My Sister's Keeper, which I did find more engaging. As I had not read the book, I was not worried about the ending being different!
