  2. They are there, I have just liked your post
  3. He removed them from the top of every post, I imagine the unexpected result of this has been to remove them from the members profile page where they always used to be
  4. They were visable at the top of every post with the members name, number of posts etc and were removed to streamline the page and try to reduce the amount of wasted space. No idea why they have gone from the profile page where they always used to be
  5. She is, I sent her there cause she forgot to cook my tea, a week in the ice mines is the normal punishment for this sort of thing
  6. For the life of me I can't remember the name of the fire chap in Nantwich but he is based in the marina and his other half runs a small shop on site there. If I do remember I will come back and update the thread Right just remembered, spruced up stoves
  7. I'm not supprised at all, considering what I saw yesterday
  8. A lot of space is wasted in the members information at the top of every post. Plus seeing Richards 27,000 post count is intimidating
  9. Well that was an exciting day, lots of seriously big trees down, loads of closed roads and as a bonus I am not in work tomorrow so someone else can sort the remaining mess out
  10. Dont know what the gusts are getting up to but we have had some seriously big trees down
  11. Feels fairly serious gusts in Brum, on site for my first call out today, many more to come
  12. Same here, doing what I do having a heads up from matty is useful, as he trawls various weather sites he can often be more up to date than the met office app.

  14. Birmingham? Bugger thats bad, I could be busy tomorrow
  15. I have seen warning for 60mph gusts which is not great news, any update from your often more accurate predictions?

  17. And from me happy birthday and all that. Isn't that a thoughtful post from the Boilerman, giving you the chance to hide next weekend
  18. The Llan rarely freezes, the flow is enough to keep it clear in all bu the worst winters. In fact the only time it seriously froze was when CRT reduced the flow during maintenance
  19. Never mind undercooked I don't like to eat fish in any way shape for form. Actually thats wrong, chippy fish swamped in malt vinegar and loads of salt is the only way I can eat fish
  20. And I would do that climb (with appropriate harness and strops ) but no way would I go down a half mile deep hole and wander about hacking coal out of the ground
  21. couldn't tell you but i do know the states have a rather carefree approach towards H&S, much of what i did when i was on the tools was powerline work and they work live on stuff we wouldn't touch without a shutdown and do seem to kill a fair few, apparently there is more litigation for outages over there so the power company's are very very reluctant to switch the power for routine works
  22. Seen that before and I am amazed he used no safety strop at all while climbing, even the strop used during the rest stop is dodgy
  23. If it helps, it wasn't exactly uncommon to see various stages of panic from death grip and shuffle along the railings to people practically crawling off the bridge. Heights take me in odd ways, no problem hanging by a rope from the top of a tree but put me at the top of a building and the butterflies start, I think its about the feeling of control
  24. Used to moor very near there and after the first few times I had no problems. It became a giggle tbh, I would sit on the roof on the scary side, walk along the roof ( that was a bit too much), get out and walk along side and pop back down into the boat and put kettle on or just avoid the photographs. Beautiful place
  25. Just listened to the track again and I can sorta see the hotel California link, Tulls much better though
