  1. Its because that the positions and points will stand so that MV and/or RB can keep the points. Cynical, moi?
  2. Entomology and meaning? And in what situation is it applied.
  3. A tip about using an air fryer, do not put anything in it wrapped in metal foil or in a foil container. The foil absorbs the heat and the contents end up undercooked. I found this out the hard way when I done a pie and chips and the pie was in a foil container. Also when doing chips its best to split the cooking time, put them in for a couple of minutes, wait a minute then heat them for the rest of the recommended cooking time results in the chips being crispy on the outside but still moist on the inside. Cooking chips in one go tends to dry them out and this is one drawback of air fryers in that they can make food dry. I'm thinking of replacing my elderly air fryer with one of these. https://ninjakitchen.co.uk/product/ninja-foodi-dual-zone-air-fryer-af300uk-zidAF300UK?utm_source=awin&utm_medium=489797&utm_campaign=Immediate+Media+Company+Limited&awc=8059_1664789598_cdeb29e03e73d5313815d5114666928b
  4. Quite so but it was never a tube line as such, it would be more correct to describe it as an Underground station. It could be on the Metropolitan line which started out as the Metropolitan Railway had main line aspirations. The Metropolitan Railway once stretched out into Rural Buckinghamshire as far as Verney Junction. http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/v/verney_junction/ With a very rural branch to Brill. https://underground-history.co.uk/brill.php The line has always been operated by surface stock (which is of similar profile to main line stock) and was built as a steam railway. It is currently operated by S class EMU's. The term 'tube stock' should only apply to the low profile stock used in the deep tube lines under central London.
  5. Just needs a couple of sparrowhawks to get the pigeons to move on.😁
  6. I wonder how many people would admit to living in Uranus?
  7. Morning all from Estuary-Land. Would you like to live in this house? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-england-kent-51635511 Walls, floors and ceilings covered with doodles, even the furniture and kitchen fittings (they didn't show the bathroom). Even the guy's clothing was covered in doodles.
  8. Evening all from Estuary-Land. I was about to write this an hour ago but while I was upstairs I decided to lay on the bed for a couple of minutes. Arthur Itis is very quiet at the moment and I hope he stays that way. Now to catch up on Farcebook.
  9. Prior to the mid thirties when Hitler started annexing the central European states (Austria, Czechoslovakia etc. Those countries that were part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire all drove on the left.
  10. Afternoon all from Estuary-Land. Been sorting out some items that run on parallel metal strips, one is in pieces which someone has offered to put back together for me. My maternal grandmother only discovered that she was a year older than she thought she was when it was time to receive her state pension. How it happened was a mystery until we discovered her baptismal certificate which showed she was baptised on her first birthday.
  11. Morning all from Estuary-Land. A few tweaks from Arthur Itis this morning but a brace of Nurofen sent him packing. Not much to do today, or that I can do.
  12. Evening all from Estuary-Land. Arthur Itis is making himself obvious so more Nurofen is about to be taken. No surprise really as I've been on my feet for much of the day. I'm not bothering with Farcebook this evening, just a quick look in.
  13. Bohemian Rhapsody by Flash Mob.
  14. This one? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UsbhZPGfGk
  15. It appears that for some reason the third ventilator and door from the right has been moved to the left to make way for the grill visible in the photograph.
  16. Another take on Bohemian Rhapsody (piano/violin duet + string quartet).
  17. You can get battery operated LED fairy lights and once C********s is over the LED's can be put to good use on the layout.
