Rain, overcast, ceiling 1000 feet with embedded Cb's locally. Warmer with rain and some more gusty wind forecast all day.
Ra is not in his heaven, and seems to have taken the last train for some foreign sun kissed coast.

Re: Formula One
I was apt to think of the other great German team, Auto Union of the pre-war year when my son sent me this photo of a report of the Grosvernor Grand Prix held at at the Pollsmoor track (now a notorious prison) in Cape Town back in 1937. Auto Union - Polsmoor.JPG http://8w.forix.com/au-sa37.html A f...

Re: Formula One
In a moment of misplaced enthusiasm, I paid to watch the Bahrein GP on television last Sunday, and almost immediately wished I hadn't as the Red Bulls were dominant as usual at almost a second a lap better than the best of the rest, the rest in this case being Alonso in the Aston Martin. While it wa...

Re: Barking Mad's Australian cat thread
On the subject of cats, my favourite cat name, was given to the swine Mancunian Dragon Li half breed, named "Chairman Meow" that used to bully my better half's sister's moggie!

Re: Elon Strikes Again
Little Elon, the poor bruised, maligned, Bryanston boy, bog washed and bullied, now needs his own bouncers to protect him from his own IT staff, generally uber nerds (the staff, not the close protectors), and the nerds, the most pacific people in the quantum universe! No wonder he feels he can bully...

Re: The really boring and totally pointless snippets thread V
Listening to "music" and chatty self-promotional exhortations from the insurance company while I'm on hold, waiting to make a claim re car windscreen... How long have you had to wait thus far Karearea, and was the music (or muzac) worth the wait? I guess it depends on the quote or offer in the end....

Re: The really boring and totally pointless snippets thread V
Complete failure of all rail transport across Sydney yesterday, due, apparently, to failure of network communication system between drivers & controllers. Of course, it caused chaos with people trying to get home, school students coming out at the same time and temperatures over 30C. However, repor...

My SA teacher friend sent me this image of the view outside his new flat in Moscow this morning. He starts work tomorrow. He arrived in Russia two days ago.

Re: Barking Mad's Australian cat thread
TGA, I''m not sure why Myxo would be lumped in with those failures. Although it didn't eradicate rabbits, it substantially reduced their numbers, which were in plague proportions. Unfortunately, the report in the daily mail quoted above is, perhaps unsurprisingly, a complete load of bolix. There ma...

With respect to the Australian cat curfew conundrum, I did see this device suggested as the basis for allowing one's feline friend out....
