Welcome to Wuwu

The name started as a private shorthand between ourselves. Have you ever watched the TV news and seen an item about the local haunted house, or a ghostly horseman who can be heard riding at the dead of night? Invariably the item has "spooky" sound effects, ghostly sounds and all the rest. What do ghosts do? they wear white sheets and make "Wooooo Wooooo" noises!

And that's how it started. Anything on TV which is about astrology, crystals or crop circles, the I-Ching or Tarot, or just about anything that isn't vanilla-flavour everyday reality is accompanied by the same spooky sounds – wuwu – as the ghosts would say.

In its broadest sense, wuwu describes any spirituality or belief systems that are marginalised by mainstream thought.

Bored with looking at this same old home page? So are we. We've added a few links to other stuff (mainly pictures), whether you find it interesting is another matter!

Dalton Lathe gallery - too knackered for Africa! Donated to TFSR, I started to overhaul this lathe ready to send, but it was far too old and worn out, and in the end I passed it on to an enthusiast to restore. (Are you a lathe enthusiast? Try the Home of the Dalton Lathe, or the cornucopia of machine tool information at lathes.co.uk – oh, wow!)
