  1. It's 10PM and so far today we've used £4.89 of electricity. That's cooking all meals on electric plus the computer on all day with two 32" monitors. The computer is in the garden office which is heated by electric and it's been cold today. That chicken must be glowing!
  2. I'm reminded of French woman Solenne San Jose who received a phone bill for just under twelve quadrillion euros. When she called the phone company to complain they offered her a payment plan...
  3. Sometimes it's uncanny. The day I joined it suggested my dentist's wife.
  4. Of course when it got _really_ stinky for them sitting inside, something finally got done. Bazalgette etc.
  5. This'll give 'em a stroke!
  6. Meanwhile Facebook has started showing me things from the 'Enoch Powell Appreciation Society'. Bloody hell.
  7. I doubt you could do anything more than isolate the sections so that only the impacted one comes down. There are probably many engineering reasons why even that is impractical.
  8. I loved tennis at school. The courts were by the road and the school was on a hill so you could wap the ball over the fence and down the road, then spent the rest of the games lesson 'finding it'.
  9. Not sure there are any spoilers. The plot's a lightweight McGuffin to give you an excuse to ride about on robot dinosaurs a bit more.
  10. Liechtenstein has been invaded by Switzerland on several occasions. By accident.
  11. After the hexamine fuel shenanigans Mamod are now supplying models with gel fuel (except locos which are gas) and having a 20% off site-wide sale. https://mamodspares.com/
  12. The BBC has commercial activities around the world and isn't funded solely by UK licence fees...
  13. Meanwhile Musk is bragging his forthcoming car will have a sub one second 0-60 time.
  14. A stomp on the throttle and away the back end goes… If you look on YouTube for things like ‘supercar fails’ you’ll come across people binning Ferraris pulling away from traffic lights. All the gear and no idea etc.
  15. Warm school milk 🤮 I mostly managed to palm mine off on someone else.
  16. IIRC the Soviets built DC3 aircraft under licence. The US design was in imperial units, but the Soviet one had to be built using metal stock in metric thicknesses etc. Cue lots and lots of design tweaks.
