warren t claim Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 I'm quite surprised that Norm hasn't added some lyrics from the J. Geils band to the PU51 thread. That's because I beat him to it. Deleted the post now though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Do you aim a stick at the top of the flagpole, measure the angle between the stick and the water and the distance from the flagpole then use trigonometry to work out the height? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seth Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 That's what I was thinking. Just need a shiny surface/mirror though not necessarily a bucket of water. However I suppose water guarantees that the reflective surface is horizontal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scaryoldcortina Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 A team of engineers were required to measure the height of a flag pole. They only had a measuring tape, and were getting quite frustrated trying to keep the tape along the pole. A mathematician comes along, removes the pole from the ground and lays it on the ground, measuring it easily. When he leaves, one engineer says to the other: "Just like a mathematician! We need to know the height, and he gives us the length!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M'coli Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 I'd suggest hoisting the bucket up to the top and letting go, whilst timing how long it takes to descend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobblers Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Ran out of petrol today, even though I put a tenner in yesterday and I've done 39 miles since in a golf. I've got a petrol light which came on about 15 miles ago, but went off a few seconds later so I ignored it. Guage was pointing above nothing unless I turned right for a bit. Finally spluttered to a halt about 400 yards from my mates house and dragged myself there half on fumes and the other half on HYBRID PRIUS WIND FARM NIMBY STARTER MOTOR POWER. I was hoping to just syphon some stuff out of his old bike (premix 2 stroke but I'm not shy) but in the end he was happy enough to run me to the pez bar. I managed to fit 9 quids in a jerry can though which makes me feel old cos I can remember filling one to the brim to put in a plaggy 90 when I was at school and it being about 3 quid.

Yeah actually when you work that out, it's probably about right - I must have been not far off fumes when I topped it up before. suppose the £25 lambda sensor I've been putting off buying for months wouldn't go amiss. And I need to stop driving like an Iranian policeman too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gompo Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Jealous bitch, admittedly I doubt the Pug was the boyfriend's pride and joy but if a bird did that to my favourite trainers or CD she could fuck right off, nevermind a bloody car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
