Temperatures somewhat above the seasonal norm......

I think you're right- the gulf stream may well move or stop- compare the climate of the Isle of Lewis to Churchill, Canada.....same latitude..... that's what we will lose.... -

I was monitoring my local Weatherunderground stations here in Milton keynes, and they all read 42˚ plus, but where not listed as the record, so they must be inaccurate, but if they are, then why do they post results? -

Why are they so restricted? Is it still covid-related? -

Reporting a breakdown to RAC without smartphone
blakeyboy posted a topic in Nothing whatsoever to do with coins area!
Anyone tried to do this? We lost a clutch in London last week, and the voice recognition software couldn't make sense of our address, and it texted us, so we replied with the correct spelling, thus, on a dumb phone, cutting the call !!!! And round you go again..... I fired of a query to the RAC about a number to talk to a human, and I just got a reply that only hinted at a solution, and, hilariously and ironically, the letter proved their non- understanding of the situation by telling me I could always "use the RAC App" !!!!!!!! What a bunch of useless morons run most of this country's customer care. The respondent -always- has a foreign name- are they not even in the country? -
Couldn't get to the top spot because of bloody Joe Dolce....

Mea culpa.

Riishi and Liz chatting after the election?

......got carried away with the DJ 'feel' of "It's been up there as No.6 for a few weeks"...... ...maybe I should have gone with the Prisoner theme and claimed I was a free man...

Nor me- I passed on it since it's nowhere near as nice as my current example. Just kidding...:-(

I once wrote to Jim to ask if he could fix it for me to be on 'It's a Knockout'. Seemed a good idea at the time.... -

.....this is in the 'Stuff to Make us Laugh' section, after all....:-) -
I agree - just the word order threw everyone....shame. Mind you, "and were your from" was ignored....newbies scrutinised, regulars' mistakes disregarded? The normal human condition?

Ok- this sent by a client in Ontario. I'm still laughing. Don't watch if you can't cope with swearing.... Bye Bye Boris - YouTube.webloc -
I'd say it was found in the road, after having been driven over many times, by the look of the damage...

Oh right- now I've got to look at all my 1929's and 1861's again...more varieties very day!! -
I wonder if anyone on here can answer this question.. Have there been cheap digital cameras that have the ability to output video all the time, and have a wired remote input so, for example, with it on a telescope, or facing a bird table, I can check what it's seeing remotely, and take a picture remotely, and without any shake....? I don't want to get an expensive one and expose it to damage- I want to mess about with a cheap secondhand one....

Digital camera question

My phone runs on logs. -
I didn't know Rob had a large library and sells books either.... ...that's useful info. Are the sales just on this forum, or does he have a website?

Digital camera question
blakeyboy replied to blakeyboy's topic in Nothing whatsoever to do with coins area!
ah...I'm trying not to use a laptop or smartphone as a remote, and I'm not bothered about the storage size- I just want the video to 'loop through' the camera into a remote monitor, so I can monitor continuously... Maybe I'll find that the first problem is stopping the camera going to sleep... -
