Thank you. Now I am wishing that I did not click on that!

Not true. I used trigonometry to correct the camber on the rear of my rally Mini without needing to buy expensive (and possibly more fragile) adjustable brackets

I would have thought that you would have used a wrench.

Well I did warn you

I confess, that means absolutely nothing to me; it must be a location thing.

That reminds me that a friend's son is required to take trigonometry this year during his senior year. Trig for gosh sake is totally useless for daily living. BTW, his entire class failed the first test!

Pretty sure the last one isn't the correct answer...

Unfortunately, this is the closest the I got to it, still about ten miles or so away :

If all goes well, I will be out there in 2021 and will go visit it.

In the same vein, the price for these:

Is simply eyewatering.

It looks like the listing is for six of them. That does not seem too high for them at about twenty pounds each.

Considering the fuss around the broccoli/florets joke that the Tourette's society made, you'll probably have some comments from people with speech impediments now. Personally I thought it was funny

I do not know about comments from people with speech impediments but here is a comment from one without: "I had broccoli for lunch today!"

I have bought several items (Bachmann OO Class 66s mainly) from ebay.uk and all have arrived here reasonably quickly and in great shape via Royal Mail small air parcel. They took from ten to fourteen days.  I agree that the RM does quite well. I also think that the USPS is the best over here.

And some more on the next pylon heading north.

There must be something about birds and power poles; a crow on a pole in Lake Worth, FL:

There are a number of large used book dealers (at least here on ebay us) that I have dealt with; betterworldbooks (my favorite), thrift.books, and a couple more. All have performed very satisfactorily. Most of mine ring up at $3.99 or so with "free" shipping and an added 15% or so discount if one buys three or more books.

P1ssing love this one:-

They might just be photos from Noch's figure range!

It took me a few moments to get this one! At least until I looked more closely.

Don't most people call a plumber and have one installed??

A lot of thought and "imagineering" went into that. I am impressed.
