Picture(s) of the day....

Maybe a thread "one for the Air Buffs" would attract a few contributions, one for the Train Buffs is pretty active.

Thought that pic looked like what it is, and of course a little more research led to this, glorious in its insecureness (having an http:// reference) but lots of info on the subject matter. The BA versions remaining are in museums in far flung places. Barbados, New York, Seattle, Heathrow, Manchester, East Fortune in Scotland, and Filton.

Guessing that is the model at Brooklands Museum edit... Brookkands do have a big one too! part of the Development

A riverside sunrise scene during my Monday morning run

The perfect start to the day

And this is what counts for a "window seat" !?!

When the FCF has a brand new thread called "One for the Air Buffs" , in its early days looking for contributions to establish itself, your window seat photo would be a welcome addition, or indeed any others you may have taken on the Airport/aeroplane part of your journey

I have taken the liberty of quoting your POTD post there. I will of course remove it if you wish.

In the words of Capt Mainwaring..."I was wondering who would be the first to spot that Matt was on a train

I had a minor accident last week and the resulting bruising has taken on a rather unfortunate appearance!!

Ouch!!!

Ouch!!!

Ouch indeed.

Not very clear but one of the two eggs expelled all its contents into the water and floated.

Hardly exciting or worthy of David Bailey. However, I had wandered off and didn't see it happen, only got back to observe the mess.
But the overflowing mess had extinguished the flame.
No smell of gas!
It's a fairly new cooker and one of the features (that I thought was unlikely ever to be needed) was that it has 'flame protection' (makes it a bugger to light sometimes)
When the flame goes out, the gas is cut off. And it worked.

Just remains to clean up the mess.

You were lucky there Steve! I survived most of my adult live with gas hobs lacking flame failure devices although following my 'fun' last week I'm very happy my current hob does...

[myglaren]

I was more surprised that it actually worked. Usually the smell of gas gives the game away.

I came across a Tiguan today with a very distinctive number plate !!

Having briefly met him not long ago, he didn't come across that " RC " to me, Mick!
