An easy place to get Buried!!

Mud, glorious mud

My shoes during running the Bury Field parkrun Event Day Course Check - a mandatory requirement..

Ran in the pouring rain before nipping over to the nearby Linford Wood parkrun to timekeep.

Timekeeping at parkrun is via a mobile phone app. Rain falling on the screen can cause phantom times so I keep my phone in a big plastic bag when it's raining. Works a treat... My phone stayed a lot drier than I did!

A proper fun morning and massively enjoyed

Steve, that's absolutely fantastic

He has done well and has an 'ology' now

One of four decorative blue sunburst stained glass panels on an old door

I like the colour and the pattern

I would regard these as old fashioned paper decorations, but full of nostalgia and colour

Flex a bit boring in general, but nice colours on this retro stuff.

My hall radiator earning its keep:

Drying wet running shoes gently... And boy are these wet after running through foot-deep floodwater today

I chose the design of the radiator especially for this task

And yes, I know it may suffer rust and live a slightly shorter life than it may have if pampered but if so, I'll just have to get a new one and fit it. No big deal against having nice dry and warm running shoes to wear next day

Think i know why my freeview box packed up overnight..... i might just test it with my meter as the uF markings are on it but ive already ordered a new box, i probably could fix it but i never did like the EPG on it.

I was looking in detail on the crapacitors on the 50+ year old generator gubbins that I posted the other day on a different thread. They helpfully said that 'Black is negative' (or somesuch). Unfortunately, absolutely no part of any bit of the capacitor or its wiring or the board were black

[quintet]

Maybe "black is negative" only after it's been incorrectly tested and thus fried

[Armidillo]

Or maybe a description of it's attitude or mood rather than it's polarity? All capacitors are of course bi-polar, so may be expected to be a bit down (or even deeply depressed) from time to time...

Here's a random horse photo - just testing a lens I haven't used for a while....

The pile of timber in the background is the remains of Radiata pine trees that died in our 2019 drought.
