  1. I’m sure god sent mC and Francie to torment me and test my resolve, much like he did with Job in the Old Testament Cheers.
  2. Hey you ! My mate mC reserves the right to metaphoricaly slam on the hand brake, do a 180 degree turn and hurtle off in the opposite direction on any and every subject and I fully support him Its what keeps me amused, better than the telly Cheers.
  3. Francie, thought you may be interested ; Artemis has just sent a photo of the full earth Please don’t tell me it’s CG Im starting to believe Sheldon Lee Cooper where there’s an infinite number of universes, where everything possible is impossible , and everything that’s impossible is possible, where an infinite numbers of chimps banging away on an infinite number of typewriters will eventually write the complete works of Shakespeare f**k it, I’m going to pour a gin and tonic All the best, pal. Cheers.
  4. OK. I know that , but I said “ if that’s what you mean” as most Apollo conspirators usually use the VAB as a reason why Astronauts can’t go to the moon. Cheers.
  5. Francie, the easiest way to describe the Van Allen Belt is to see the earth as a bar magnet with a north and South Pole, this diagram shows the magnetic field around a bar magnet, much the same as the Van Allen Belt around earth; Cheers.
  6. Way above my pay grade mate But if you don’t believe it, that’s your opinion and I respect that. If you mean Van Allen’s Belt when you say the earths magnetic field , yes space craft and astronauts can safely pass through it. VAB isn’t uniform around earth , some parts are much weaker and less dangerous, and spacecraft traverse these parts. You allways seem to be searching for why things CAN’T be done, I’m the opposite, I look for how things CAN be done Cheers.
  7. Sounds like it was an F15 as one pilot rescued and one missing. Cheers.
  8. Honest answer is I don’t know , but I’d assume they all go into orbit, but I’m an Aero Engineer , not an Astro Engineer You are sceptical or don’t believe, I’m a firm believer but I respect everyone’s opinion and I’m not going to trawl the internet to convince you As I’ve said before, I’ve worked with people for Lockheed who were on the Apollo Programme and I believe them rather than the conspiracy theorists, and try to limit my opinions to personal experience as far as possible Cheers.
  9. Yes, that’s how you tell a first crosses from a second cross. Cheers.
  10. Here’s one for you mC , many years ago on here a lad put up a pic of a Saluki/greyhound for sale and said it was a first cross. All the Daywalkers savaged him because the dog was heavily feathered and according to them, first crosses NEVER throw feathered Now I don’t know if that’s true, fair enough, of the limited number of first cross saluki/ greys I’ve seen, they were all smooth. I actually contacted an animal genetics expert for his view, he said probably the greyhound coat gene was dominant, but that didn’t necessarily mean it couldn’t happen. Your opinion please Che
  11. Iran saying it’s an F35 but “experts” looking at pictures of the wreckage the Iranians have posted say it’s an F15. Cheers.
  12. We aren’t talking about saluki or collie crosses, we are talking about deer/greys and the first x throws true to type almost without exception.. Some of the dogs in those pics have been stripped out some haven’t but they all have similar coats. Ive seen parti-coloured dogs that were supposed to be first crosses but it always turns out there was something else in there . The two bitches in this pic, the one on the right only had about 1/4 deer in it, the other was sold as a first cross but, but it only made around 24”, when the breeder was questioned he admitted it has “some coll
  13. Don’t be silly , genuine first cross deerhound greyhounds are like clones You obviously haven’t seen many first crosses. I was in Ireland and two lads came up to me and said “I bet that’s a first cross Doxhope deerhound x Greyhound” . I said how do you know, he said “ they all look the same !”. All from different litters; Cheers.
  14. Sop it, please stop it My young pals heads about to burst, trawling through Google to find something to refute what you’re posting Cheers.
  15. I prefer genuine first cross, you can almost guarantee what you’ll get. I don’t know if Platts dogs are tested , I’ve never seen one run. I know he bought two deerhounds off my mate that had Doxhope breeding in them. To be honest, I’ve never heard any one say Platts dogs are great or shite, but I laugh at this “English Deerhound” nonsense, it’s just a sales pitch, lads have been using deer/grey crosses up here before I was born, The Slack’s and Doherty were winning comps with them before the saluki cross came popular. Its all down to personal preference Cheers.
  16. Isn’t that what Platt does ? Cheers..
  17. Rubbish ! It’s always dark on that side of the moon , how would they see what they are doing ? Cheers.
  18. Yeah, I’ve spoken to hm many times. A very keen lad .He asked my advice about breeding his deerhound and I have him my opinion for what it’s worth. Ive seen vids of it on deer and its hearts in it but it needs speed putting in, like most deerhounds really. At least he’s out with it giving it a go Cheers.
  19. Is that Euan, I think his name is ? Cheers.
  20. I’ve spent far more time in London airports that London itself so I can’t really comment. I went to a meeting in Southall back in the 70’s and it felt very “alien” to me, not what I expected. I was on a course on Tottenham Court Road, near “Theatre Land” one time and the demographics were completely different to Southall, As for my own patch, Newcastle, I can walk from Darras Hall , the millionaire footballers preferred location, to the West Road , which is almost 100% Pakistani. I guess all cities have their different cultural, religious mixes these days, especially the big cosmo
  21. I’ve travelled the world and Texas is one of my favourite places , although as I stayed in the Presidential Suite of the Dallas Hilton, a walled and gated community in San Antonio, and at a log cabin belonging to President Johnson, I may be more than a little bit biased ! Freindly cosmopolitan people, and in some parts, yes, red necks, and other parts far more “Mexican” all taco’s and mariachi bands I did all the tourist bits, the Kennedy Assassination tour, the Alamo , the San Antonio river walk. Spent a fortune in Schepplers, the biggest Western Store in the world . The fr
  22. At 5 he could name all the planets in the solar system and assign them a colour, mars red, earth blue, Venus silver, etc. At 8 he told me they were doing science lessons and he knew the difference between kinetic and potential energy. He is fluent in English and Arabic and has conversational French at 11, his mother told me he has changed the language on his iPad to Japanese as he wants to learn it ! His school teaches critical thinking ; HOW to think , not WHAT to think, and there’s absolutely none of this D.E.I. woke nonsense and any teacher talking about Trans rights Homosex
  23. I haven’t got one mate. I was thinking of buying a decent one for my grandson. He’s very interested in space and science and the skies are a lot clearer in Saudi as less light pollution Cheers.
  24. Those sneaky chinks have sent hundreds to the dark side of the moon where we cant see them and are building skyscrapers. Cheers.
  25. Simple fact is there’s a rocket on the way to the moon right now, being tracked by every space agency and observatory in the world, but mC doesn’t believe it’s possible, or he does believe it if it’s the Russians or Chinese,. Cheers.
