Why aye lol.I passed a place in Geneva a couple of weeks ago where you could go in and make a Swiss Army knife to your specifications with attachments you choose.

A submariner being interviewed on Sky news just said if the vessel is on the ocean floor it’s less than 1% chance of rescue,if it’s bobbing around somewhere on the surface it’s 90% chance.The sub can’t be opened from the inside,the hatch is bolted from the outside.

Space flight would be incredible,a billion would buy every experience you could imagine.

Sunny Surrey except it’s currently raining.Off to the states in a few days for a wander. -
At that depth the sub imploding will have been like stamping on an empty aluminium coke can,hopefully they didnt have time to worry about it.

I am quite adaptable,been in genuine wilderness many times,but I also like people watching,I am sure NYC-LA overland will be interesting,I could have just flown direct but feel like a walkabout.

I lived in a caravan in Docklands for a year and a half,loved it to be honest,and lived in Hong Kong which was as densely packed as sardines in a tin,I quite like cities and people.

Had a walk around the park,had breakfast in Kingston,Mrs Mack’s breakfast,she is a real carnivore (I had yoghurt like a soy boy).

Is it the geothermal place on north island?

No,it’s ten minutes from home,kempton steam museum,the engines are similar to the Titanic’s so they have a small display in there.
-
How deep underground?Would have liked to have a chance to do that.
-
Two identical engines in there,used to pump London water between 1929 and 1980,enthusiasts maintain it now,open a couple of weekends a year,the engines have featured in a few Titanic documentaries.
-
Had a good morning and a very interesting tour,the engines are very similar to those in the titanic,I was surprised at how quiet they actually run.Met a guy who came from Australia to see it,I travelled ten minutes.

You have a vocab akin to my own,start using it,jazz your posts up a bit,there’s a new “Are there big cats in the UK” type podcast on YouTube,I will post it later,there’s a short section about cat cultists,in both your and GM’s words it’s “very telling”.

Good man,sounds good and I know you learnt a new word today,I have a tour booked tomorrow of the worlds largest triple expansion steam engine,life is measured in family and experiences not time.
