Experience with radios has made me very suspicious of capacitors made by Hunts?

My Hacker does hum, so I naturally suspected the main 50+50uf can has dried up.

Do you change them, or not? The hum is audible through the speaker,wheras yours is silent, even at full volume. So, if it is not due to a...

I'd like to have throttled the bugger running the PA system!

At least you didn't have to water the garden.

You don't need to have the console enabled, just type it on your keys as you would normally.

You get a 'bleep' if you have entered it properly.

I have tried flying a tank & they are too unstable. I go get a Dodo from Francis Airport.

To get there I drive the car down into the subway station next ...

I managed to get it first time. Jumping the iron barrier took a few attempts.

Has anyone had any more fun in Blue Hell?

When you master the Dodo and find the fabled Ghost Town you may see your radar shows a non-existant road. Just a odd Easter Egg?

The mod looks rather like the environs of San Andreas. I hope the Ballas don't show up as well.

I have made an amplifier that does duty as the other channel for my Hacker Gondolier.

It was a 6SL7GT and a 6V6. Not enough gain to fully drive the 6V6.

Tried using the 'spare' triode as a boot-strapped cathode follower. Not much difference.

I tried a more sensitive o/p valve (6CH6). Better (loud...

There's an awful of of women that can't shut their mouths. Usually the result is ear-ache for her partner/boyfriend.

More pus than a cat show. I was half expecting a geyser of the stuff.

"This isn't going on YouTube"? It's gross. OF COURSE IT'S GOING ON YOUTUBE!

To which side of York station are the Postal Sidings mate?

I know Leeman Rd & the main Royal Mail depot there. I was thinking it might be worth a look in case there is something lurking there.

Should have had the bastards for assault.

Amazing to see the unit so clean, looks fantastic!

Get a chisel and bash holes in the other exhausts too & improve the sound further.

There was a un-powered prototype at the Research Centre in Derby.

I wonder what happened to that?

I should read what I write!

If Hitler had been intimately associated with it the place would have been dynamited after the area was occupied by the Americans, to prevent it becoming a shrine in the way the burnt out shell of the Berghof was razed and obliterated.

I didn't know whether Lorenzo Odone lived into adulthood.

I live about 2 miles from the plant where the chemist, Donald Suddaby made the special oil.

Mr Suddaby passed on in 1993 BTW.

If someone pulls the plug to put the coffee machine on he's screwed!

Sounds like Dick Dale playing through the 'clean' channel for once.

Oh man! I'd love to take that mother to Lake Windermere & well and truly f$%k their 4mph speed limit.

I often used to receive these pictures in the UK on Ch R1. The clock was always GMT +3 hrs.

I used to see Gorbachev addressing the Supreme Soviet.

I never heard the associated sound before.

That is frightening. Public utility cabling knotted up like the frikkin rats nest at the back of my PC.

There's a video hereabouts of some poor bastard on the roof of a Indian electric train.

SOB gets fried instantly by 15KV.

He was stupid, but he was probably familiar to pulling the same sort of stunt as seen here.

I wonder if the conductors go up on the roof and see if everyone has a ticket?

Two "Rats" arrived on the NYMR ex Vic Berry's yard.

25278 was named "Castell Powis/ Powis Castle" in paint on the side of the locomotive.

I know there was a GWR Castle Class loco of the same name.

I wonder where the name was applied to the 'Rat'? It was at some point between August 1986 and Janua...

They were cheering the dog more than their team. Must have been a crap match.

Data about accidents was classified material. The RBMK reactor had design flaws made worse by inadequate monitoring of activity deep inside the reactor.

The explosion came because the reactor activity was unstable. The reactor had been at low power, then power was increased too fast. They tried t...

There are some places like the vehicle dumps that are forbidden & some of the dumped stuff in the hospital is pretty 'hot' (firemen's uniforms). The tours are guided. It is not as if you are free to scour Pripyat for a couple of hours & go anywhere you want.

The area around the power station had ...

45115 'Apollo', met you briefly at Leeds R.I.P.

What the hell do you do if you are out somewhere & you have to pass water?

If yer old man didn't freeze you'd need a hammer to break off the icicle.

Not that is frightening.

I have seen countless vintage restored with total attention to detail & looking like they had been left in a crate since the day they were made.

I find the owners have expended so much time and money in making it perfectly 'original' they wont use it. Usually because the brakes & lights are facto...

If Armageddon was on the way I wouldn't want to know anything about it until I vapourised.

If you had only a four minute warning what the hell could you do? Apart from getting your gun and blowing your brains out.

If you did survive a nuclear attack then there's the fall-out & radiation exposure...

She's got more crack than Colombia!

Are you sure it is all pickle juice? It looks like three of you took a leak in that jar.

The song when cleaning is 'Katyusha'. Nicer than the Soviet Anthem playing at most other times.

It seems like a great revolver, but what about choice of ammunition available?

Can you get Russian Surplus, or is it too old for that?

It must have been a bit of a headache if it was still in service u...

At least he didn't get blitzed & ask the dog to lick the guy's balls!

Is the Philladelphia LHJC system part the work of the late Ivo Peters. The car in the shot of the coaling stage made me wonder............

Mr Warner's character I believe was telling porkies to cover up for an incident.

Was the man the Shedmaster wanted to know about found drunk on duty the previous shift?

I believe they put him in a empty box-van (boxcar) to sleep it off & it gets put into a freight.

The guy wakes up with a hangove...

The NRM have a thing about 'originality'. 'Green Arrow' has a cracked cylinder block.

I don't know why they won't explore a solution the LNER adopted of making the block of separate castings.

If the clacks leak the boiler is not steam-tight, like a tyre with a leaky valve, but at eight times the pressure!

I think crud in the boiler feed-water or lime-scale can prevent them seating.

The old-fashioned remedy was for the fireman to belt them with a hammer, which stood a chance of dislod...

She may "have a lot of love to give", but what the hell do you do when it domes to pleasuring her? The Kama Sutra doesn,t have a position that includes use of several hydraulic jacks& pit props just so you can find her Glory Hole.

You should have got Donna Simpson in to help. Then Greenpeace would come because they thought you had a whale in a lake.

The comment about seeing a scoped DSHK doesn't surprise me.

Is the fire rate low enough that you can squeeze off single shots, or would the sniper have to disable the gas system first?

The Russians are also known to have used anti-tank rifles with scopes against snipers.

That makes sniping with ...

The guy on the left is Wainfleet. Trudy refers to him by name as he is servicing her chopper. Dunno who the actor is.

In the script Wainfleet is a nasty peice of work. He finds Tsu'tey in the forest and cuts off his queue. We see him get trampled by a Hammerhead Titanothere in the battle.

In the movie David is shot by armed police.

Where did the idea of a silver bullet come from as a way of killing a werewolf?

Coleman Fuel, Aspen T4 or Panel Wipe #3 is the right fuel to use.

Still prime well with alcohol though.

I don't know how deep the spirit well is, but you need more than the amount you used there.

Then you let it turn on the valve just as the spirit flame is about to go out. It should start a lot better than this because the generator was not hot enough. Try less air than the instructions suggest, a...

Do they use a machine with a spiked roller for areating a football field.

Not the most wicked ride on the streets & it'd take friggin ages to get all the corpses out from the spikes. Bloody good fun though.
