Maybe someone else will know, but looking at a map I've seen AWACS doing the same as far from Waddo as the Rivet you saw. I'll take a shot and say it landed there. I know a man who will know for sure mind....
-
Waddington is base for all the RAFs ISTAR stuff to my knowledge. I often see AWACS circling readying to land there and I'm usually miles away to the south and west.

Okay I admit, it was me........... i find the sight of the soulless b*****ds very disturbing!

From what I've seen their best use is within city limits on a small scale. I can see this increasing, but replacing the general car I just can't see it myself....When I was a kid we thought we would all have hover cars now!...haha Modern electric cars are getting ranges of 3-400 miles now, that sort of level will make them very practical for everyday folks. Further improvements in battery tech and production I can definitely see them replacing the internal combustion engine. I am seeing more on driveways with the cables running through the house windows on charge. I think that will be the o

Battery tech is the barrier for moving away from hydrocarbons. The industry has legs in it yet, at least until I retire. f**k me is that me accepting this shit for the next 40yrs? LOL Even if you knock a lot of oil services on the head, there's still the need mineral commodities and 100 yrs into the future rare earth elements mined beyond this Earth.
-
That's what I keep getting told but we'll see. Interesting times for those that are left. Iron ore/mining is another thing I have worked on and that f****r dropped like a lead balloon at the same time as Brent, LOL.

I think the oversupply is bigger than that but it's the inventories that are the problem. It's going to take a while to bring them down. I swear to god I could almost cry if this happens. I didn't work for 8 months of this year, we've taken pay cut after pay cut for the work we do, most of our clients went bankrupt, I know loads of people who lost their jobs hell I even had to sell my house although ended up somewhere nice because of it. It's been one hell of a couple of years https://www.iea.org/oilmarketreport/omrpublic/ I had a look here earlier at the market surplus. S

LOL, been watching this for a while! My employer is in such a shit state I'm not sure the Brent price is even relevant! LOL A steady $60/bl wouldn't hurt things though. They're talking of 1.2 mbl/d OPEC cut and a further 600k non OPEC, but the oversupply is only, what, 250k?
-
I'm utterly intolerable if you try to feed me tomatoes or custard! It's the skins on tomatoes that make me want to gip and custard is just vile snotty slime.
-
That Frontier sounds interesting, thanks for the heads up.

-3 to -4. First proper frost and by chance took a detour on the way to work across the Wolds. Absolutely beautiful single track road thick with frost with the sun rising brightly. Would have been a photo moment was I not f***ing late! LOL

Because once people seed they can lose their jobs just by voicing an opinion they will start to toe the line....partly explains why our media never seems to question anything anymore. I much prefer argument and debate to censorship A free Press means not regulating and restricting their actions. It does not mean regulating them from managing their staff how they see fit. I would consider that the complete opposite of freedom. Having a free Press and freedom of speech does not stop lies and deceit, it simply maintains the diversity (through freedom) of the voices and therefore

I'm not exactly an optics guru so what I say might not mean much. If I was minted then I'd go out and buy a 2 grand pair of Swaros but seeing as I'm not my Vortex Vipers really are as good as I could ask for, I don't feel under gunned with them and am very satisfied. Maybe the Razors are on par with the premium brands, I don't know.
-
Where do I sign up for a job like that? That Donnie Vincent does some good stuff. All very raw and passionate but a bit of a leap from shooting pheasants or chasing foxes, lol. Kristoffer Clausen does some decent stuff as well, though not quite all deep and emotional.

Black Sails! Between seasons right now but I really rate it.

Fukcing blinding idea ... extreme cockney survival ...... Survive the Squirrels!

While all us cool people (not nerds) are waiting for Game of Thrones S7 to start what's everyone watching? I'm quite into Blindspot and Lucifer right now. Been watching Blindspot since it came out but started Lucifer on a tip off and binged the hell out of it. Really like it!
-
The one for me for Nott's folk, particularly those north of the city is calling everyone 'youth', only you have to say it in a strained way as if you're forcing it out with your diaphragm. For Leicester, just say Les'staaar. Like a right f***ing chav and you've pretty much mastered that accent. LOL
-
Then you'd end up getting prosecuted for assault with intent to rob or some such. Absolutely warped country we live in.
-
If she was on private land when taking these pictures then isn't that a offence? I'm not sure if it's just the civil offence of trespass or if it comes under some Human Rights Law regarding privacy or even aggravated trespass.

Unless you sound like a member of the rolling stones, the Royal family or an extra from Oliver Twist, all Yanks think the English are Ozzies! LOL

Instant coffee, any brand I'm not fussy, shake some into a mug pour the hot water in and add milk. Apparently I'm a feral Heathen that needs civilising?
