  1. PLEASE stop using Status updates as a Tinder site. I want to know about White Rabbits and folks' Cats.

      At least it's only Tinder and not 'Only F***', whatever that is. Not sure they have cat updates on there.

  2. To make a fridge colder do you turn it up or down?

  3. Why am I seeing TV adverts for Northern and Transpennine Express in Devon?

    1. vaughan45

      Much like we get South Eastern Railway adverts in Norfolk...

  4. Inappropriate hold music: calling a bus operator to advise them of a defective vehicle to hear "Take a chance on me".

      Like much of this country in seems unfortunately...

      Not too sure about the character in the Town Hall - are they a wise owl or a cunning fox? Also not sure what the cat in the window above the cafe is advertising - or am I over thinking this?

  6. Could someone kindly tell me what a 'vegan friendly' mattress is?

    1. vaughan45

      vaughan45

      A bit like vegan friendly leather, which often has a plastic quotient which is oil based so not very eco friendly!

  7. I have seen it all now, an advert just flashed up on another site advertising workshops for parents to sign up their six to eleven year olds up for to train how to become successful YouTubers...

     

    I despair...

      I've seen a similar course for those 18+, but that used the 'Only Fans' platform...

    War in Ukraine, Energy problems and inflation - I thought it couldn't get any worse in 2022.

      Part of a periodic national testing programme I believe.

  9. Why on Earth was the heating on full in that class156? (At least it made it though!)

      From a driver on UK Rail Forums 'Pacer and Sprinter series trains have their heating supplied by waste engine heat by passing the coolant around the heating system for the saloons, this is 'topped up' by an Auxiliary (webasto) heater which burns diesel to supply heat and also a pre-heater for the engine in cold weather. The system is set to maintain a constant temperature - 20c if I recall rightly - and on Sprinters there is nothing to allow the crew to switch it off except for tripping the fans much which is frowned on'

       

      Probably just the waste heat from the engine, if the control thermostat has failed and providing a way of 'venting' the engine heat in extremely hot weather to assist the unit completing it's journey.

      Initial boil followed by a slow simmer lid on, liquids being topped up as necessary.

      I thought Turdus Merula was the preferred term these days...

  13. The Bachmann Double Fairlie - was there ever a greater distance between 'need' and 'want?'

    1. vaughan45

      An argument that apparently derives self-contradictory conclusions by valid deduction from acceptable premises

  14. Steam coming out of cooling towers? Is Ratcliffe about to generate?

    1. vaughan45

      vaughan45

      Think this may be related to the contingency plan, if there is insufficient gas to supply gas fired generating sites

      Which one do you use as many of the free supposed ad-blockers contain a variety of threats that embed into your system?
