Whilst we are on the subject, My wife’s grandparents were coal merchants working out of Upton and Blewbury on the Didcot to Southampton line. They had a conveyor and hopper arrangement to load their lorry’s which is just visible in this 1962 Postcard behind the station. If anyone has any other images or details of how it work I would be interested, what has thrown me is apparently it’s conveyor started under the siding track.

God forbid they ever get a job in a factory where they have to remove it to avoid it getting caught in tools/scratching the product/food hygiene requirements….or any of the other reasons mere mortals have to take them off in their working day…

Maybe he’s trying to promote reasons to visit, imagine how much it could be worth to local businesses in refreshments, parking and eggs if it takes off….

I would suggest you take a detailed look at how REACH works for proposal, consultation, decision and implementation of substances. There is almost as much room for industrial lobbying, as there is science on both sides of the channel.

Com port changing is often simply a sign you have used a different USB port to the previous occasion (for any device, not just a sprog).

Probably cause this is one of the first major deviations of the uk and EU’s REACH regulations (which previously were identical/aligned) at a retail level since brexit and people are human…

It was a bit of a puzzle how the simply BLT sandwich could be so good and the coffee so incredibly S*£& Having not been before It was nice to see an exhibition with such a variety of large layouts to allow long trains or decent shunting manoeuvres. The layouts all seemed to be to a very high standard and even on the Sunday all the operators seemed to be enjoying themselves, not a bad thing on a three day show.

Reminds me of a major software update on our accounts software/ERP once, shot up to 98% in an hour and then sat there for three days….the release notes had been clear about not interrupting it….it was just luck I had chosen the afternoon before good Friday to implement it!!!!!!

Frankly if they just went names out of a hat to set an order for a single hot lap it would probably be more interesting (for the tv audience at least).

Does your mobile reach it if you turn WiFi off (or go out of its range) and use mobile data?

Might be worth rebooting your router as well, just in case that has cached something.

The p-way gang my dad worked for apparently knocked some sort of signal bonding wire out of place, turning a green straight to red directly in front of an HST on the GWR mainline at one point (would have been late 70’s/early 80’s). Apparently it took the brakes a while to cool off and the driver wasn’t very polite to them….

Looking at the constructors standings and reminded of Aesop’s tortoise and hare, not sure why…

How much salt in the air would the chassis have been exposed to when shipping from Japan? -
Can I ask what size solar array and batteries you have? We are due to move soon and I am hoping to get Solar installed in the new property but not sure how much battery capacity would be worthwhile.

When the sky deal expires it will be interesting to see what online options are available in the next licensing arrangement, apparently Bernie didn’t see it as an important growth area and pretty much gave said rights to Sky for the uk market…

Parcels couriers - what are your horror stories?
Jonboy replied to Captain Kernow's topic in Wheeltappers
Half the problem is that sending companies try and shift their responsibility to the customer, here’s a tracking number, sort yourself out with the carrier. If they all had to take proper responsibility for their contractors actions it would likely improve the communications dramatically. -
Am I right in thinking Monaco is the only circuit that don’t pay a fee to F1 to host a race? scratch that, it’s the lowest fee on the calendar https://racingnews365.com/how-much-each-circuit-on-the-calendar-pays-to-formula-1

The problem is you really need a mix of incremental and complete as incremental don’t always work when you hit the restore button on line databases…

Hi @AY Mod Likewise mine seems to have disappeared and I would be grateful if you could add me to the list when you get a chance to look into the issue. Thanks Jon -
Competitor decides how their fine is spent… not necessarily a bad cause but again the F1 tail wagging the dog when it comes to the rule book… https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formula1/60800976

Given their dominance in the ownership of uk container ports it is likely a third of all imported goods put money in their books (even if only a few pence per item)…
