56

why am i writing about a number ,well carry on reading this post and you will find out more .many moons ago i lived in ilfracombe near barnstaple devon and to get a little extra cash i went to garages and various other places picking up scrap iron with a friend .one whilst awaiting items to be weighed at barnstaple scrap yard i spotted an old 56 lb weight may have been used to weigh potatoes -so i put it inside the front of van and from that day i have used it in every home weight routine and would hate to depart with it -how sad.so i bet your glad dear reader you stuck this intesting post out -ha.
