If you stick your phone on a three second exposure (or more) and point North, you may get something. I'm near Dover with fairly poor seeing, so if you're up much further North and it's clear, you may have got a full, spectacular visual display. We had a good view here in Bg,managed to sleep through it tho.... GrumpiusMaximus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOtherStu Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 So completely under the radar, 30,000 people in South Hampshire lost their water on Thursday night and it never came back until Sunday. We're told we may well have more outages. But because we don't have lots of MPs living in our area and being the scumbags that we are, it barely got a mention on the news, unlike a few thousand folk who lost theirs in leafy Surrey for 24 hours and suddenly it's a "Major Incident". Anyhow, we turned that into a benefit. To avoid the outage, we booked a last minute holiday to a holiday park on the other side of the New Forest (who did have water). Was dirt cheap and turned out to be made up of brand new static caravans that were very clean. And the best bit is that it turns out we get £30 compensation for every 12 hours we're without. As that was 6 of those, we'll get the holiday paid for too! High Jetter, Tickman, GrumpiusMaximus and 11 others 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No and calling them bullet trains is oh so wrong. It is like calling all buses with a platform a Routemaster. The express train services in Spain are called AVE (it is on the side it is on the website) AVE is Alta Velocidad Española. In Spanish Ave is a bird. It is a play on words. The train in the image is a S102 and built by Talgo or Bombardier.

Rustybullethole Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Been out in the cold doing groundwork all week for a granny flat house build so feeling pretty broken. Came home to a greeting of my cars making (another) funny noise. Here we go two three four. Took it for spin this morning and yeah the drive shaft is still grumbling though thats not the noise shes on about that gains with speed. Come home het the jack out all tight apart from said shaft. Whats this though Bumper repair worn down and doing the impression of a raleigh griffter with a playing card taped to the fork leg. I like repairs like this. Driveshaft can wait till i'm less broken.
