Re: Oh Deary Me....I'm truly Gutted!!

Do you live in Gay Street, Nigel? Have you ever bought a Gaytime ice cream on your bank card?
Reminds me of the tale of a Yorkshire chap being bothered by Farmer Giles. He went into a chemist's and asked "Does tha sell a*s* cream? and the reply was "Aye, lad - Cornetto or Gaytime?" :hide:

Re: MikeW (emfrat) Queensland floods???

Thanks Ben. The area flooded is larger than the state of Victoria, where airspeed Mike lives. Victoria is just a tad less in area than the whole UK.

Re: MikeW (emfrat) Queensland floods???

Cheers Mike - The flooding is a good 4-6 hrs drive further west. We got some of the rain, and I see on the radar a bit more to come, but nothing like what they got. Absolute disaster for livestock, many graziers facing financial ruin. 350mm in a few days when your annual rainfall is barely 100mm ...

Oh.. Is that loc-ness? I tried zooming in but it's low-res.
Nah, a bit further away than that. I set Birdcam03 to 5MP but there was/is some rain on the lens :cheers:

It got a bit damp this morning - looks bad, but it's only shin-deep in my yard.

Re: Keep safe MikeW (Tropical cyclone Albert)

Bit of a fizzer here, really, but northern NSW copped it again and there is some damage in the coastal suburbs of Bris and further south.

Re: Keep safe MikeW (Tropical cyclone Albert)

Thanks Mike. Pretty sure we'll get wet, but it looks a lot better now than three days ago. Alfred might head off south, to find who is calling him Albert

Re: Oh dear, there goes the neighbourhood

Hello Ben - At present I am running AFS4 on a pretty modest Win10x64 machine. Very smooth performance, even in 'busy' scenery locations. It is not an MSFS clone, but the small dev team do great work. New stuff just works, without an endless series of updates and hotfixes. You can do fully-planned ...

Oh dear, there goes the neighbourhood

Hello Mike - the Outhouse has been a great resource for years, but since I am using Aerofly FS4 and working towards a Linux environment I only visit to see how they are getting on. Still a great forum, but they just don't cater for my preferred sim. :cheers:
