Re: Northern Lights

Hi again Garry, :hello: I'm truly glad your skies are clear, and you can see all that stuff. I'd heard that apart from airborne particles, light pollution takes a heavy toll around Britain these days. I've found a whole discussion in flightsim.com, from which these two are copied, one by a gentleman...

Re: Northern Lights

Thanks for sharing those pix, Garry! Very atmospheric. Regarding the comments about FS9: I feel sorry for you guys in the polluted parts of this beautiful planet! In The Lucky Country our skies are clear enough to actually see the Moon, planets and stars, so we know what they look like. The Moon is ...

Re: Movember

Hi Guys, This is evidently world wide, as we have it in Australia too. I can confirm what Derek's told you. I've had elevated PSA for a few years and they check progress by blood test every few months. I have had two biopsies, which are done while you're fully awake. If your mind tends to wander, th...

By email, I berated the maker of a TV aerial wall plug, which broke while I was turning a screw to attach the wire.

Re: Come the revolution...

Just a few words, Dave: The law is an ass. Courts enforce law, not justice. 60 years ago, the Australian Tax Act was smaller and simpler than current telephone bills. Now it's more like The Lord of the Rings. No matter where or how you change, remember The Hitch-hikers Guide to the Galaxy: "Res...

Re: Fraser's Vanguard panel - an 'enhancement'

Hi Davem2004 :hello: You said: "I've taken the liberty of making a little adjustment of the Panel.cfg that I thought I'd share:" Thanks, Dave, that gives those of us who don't have a degree in FS a look into the machinations and hidden mysteries of the secret scriptures, and may well inspi...
