Good on you Mick :D That bee will have been very grateful...

I was very pleased to see one of the riders in Sunday's TT race wore his number 13 bib in the correct way :)

Mine is still up and down and drops out frequently.
Ookla speedtest works but BT's own doesn't and I get a message to phone them. Like that is going to happen :(

Mine on TalkTalk has been pretty faultless for years now, today's test shows 69.2mbps down and 18.6 mbps up. Can't remember the last time it dropped out.

Well, in the 2nd one you've done 161.8 miles since the first was taken, the engine has warmed up from stone cold to operating temp, the day's warmed up from 14 to 16 C, and there's a bit more fuel in the tank. In the 2nd shot, the driver's door's not open, however the lights on the instrument panel appear to be saying that there's a door open on the passenger side (in both shots), and that someone's (driver's?) seatbelt isn't buckled (both shots).

No doubt I've completely missed what we are supposed to notice :roll: - apart from it not being the instrument panel of a French car...

Oh - whatever car it is, it's a manual!

Excellent observation and interpretation Alec, now you just need some Sherlock like deduction to postulate what is going on!! :-D

We had a massive fog this morning - the 6:30am flight to Sydney didn't leave until 10:30am (and they cancelled the scheduled 10:30 flight altogether, so no doubt it was bucketloads of fun at the airport this morning).

Didn't think to take a foggy photo, but here's one of some autumn colours.

That's lovely Alec and sorry to hear of all the delays... Hope it all worked out in the end OK...

By way of contrast, early this morning in the UK late spring...

I can see one castle growing - do you find many seedlings in the grass? I imagine it would hurt to trip over them...
