A concerned look came over Eddie's face and he turned to Walt and said "see, our howitzers are 30 yards short again. Do you see that Walt?" 'Not really' said Walt. "Nor moi" said Captain Leon directing the fire. "Have a look through my telescope then" said Eddie " it was a gift from a drunken...

In medical Science too Craig. My now elderly Japanese-Aussie sister in law worked as a medical researcher for Sydney CSIRO for many decades and was involved in Epigenetic research from its early days. Like with Sport, we punch above our weight. Not sure if it's an Aussie wonder but I hear...

Riding towards Lowell manor were Corporals Milli and Bonaparte, 12 horsemen and their captured angry Redcoat Sergeant hog tied naked to his wounded horse. Milli had removed the greased feather. Taking back tracks they had to cross a major track when they saw a group of forty Dragoons in the...

Try resizing them down with a photo editor Craig, that works.

Great clips Thomas, thanks. The driving technology is certainly getting much better in so many ways. Everything is getting automated which I'm fine with, to a point. I still love my old 6 speed manual Corolla I put 98 Octane petrol into. I wish I had a reversing camera though. That's an...

I am a good driver but poor at parking. I take my time looking out the widow to see better. Reversing out of my place is easy. What's tricky is reversing a caravan into a camping berth.

No, it's not a post box, but it does also serve an important function. 🚗🚕🚎🚐🚙

Opps, sorry Craig. Neither of those two. Getting warmer though with those guesses but not so big and more commonplace. I saw lots today having a 50km ride on my new motorbike.

A physicist/ biologist/chemist who bonds together atomic sized particles, chemical or biological?

No getting cooler, not clouds, something solid built into the ground, like your Telegraph poles' guess. Most of it is in the open air but built into the ground, like a telegraph pole. I bet you've seen lots in your work. 🚛

Look forward to those Egyptian pics Craig. No worries about your numbers. I lived and breathed them in my Surveying and teaching Maths. Like how many links in a metre. There's at least hundred links in a chain to keep it a bit simple. They were all made of metal those real chains with links...

Similar indeed but not Telegraph poles Jessica. You probably see lots. :rolleyes:

1 metre is 3.281 feet. 115feet÷3.281= 35m agreed Craig originally said the wave was 300m high. 300m×3.281= 984 feet~ 1000feet That's high enough to wipe out New York like in the movie 'Deep Impact'. That picture scares the hell out of me. My father left the Royal Navy as a Commander in...

Mostly in the open air Richie and a bit underground.

from the net Craig: The tallest wave ever surfed was 115 feet. That video of Sebastian's wave broke the internet. Only, the wave wasn't attributed to him, it was wrongly attributed as Rodrigo's and touted as Koxa's 'record breaking 115 foot wave. ' To this day, it is still living life on...
