@TakeThatClouds Replace "everyone" with "me" and you'd be spot on.

@TakeThatClouds @robinmonotti For the benefit of other 'critical thinkers', that's over 9000 feet.

@PaulHar24465442 @The1BullTerrier @otboae @bluebirdk7 @OriginalMuggles Makes an awful lot of sense, but personally, the thrill of seeing, hearing and smelling the Classic Team Lotus cars out on track is infinitely better than looking at an albeit beautiful lump of metal in a museum.

@JHCPAL PS scroll up to this for a picture: I've only just realised that she left the school the same year that Redmond died aged 23. There was a touch of hushed whispering in the family about his death and unfortunately I never did find out what was behind it.

@JHCPAL Mind, the trees at the old school have grown a bit…https://t.co/ilHbhEmEby

@MuseumOot @HeritageFundNOR A postcard from Clara (to my gran) in September 1924 when she first started at Windyhaugh:

@bluebirdk7 Q19: "I did not select 'yes' in Q18 but cannot proceed as an answer is required. This form seems as well thought out as the event."

@newagemaker1 @ValerieAnne1970 The conclusive proof that they are contrails is in the invisible region of superheated steam immediately behind the engines.
If it was a chemical release, the white would be more and more intense all the way back to the plane.

[Geoff Smith @Geoff___Smith]

@CornishTime @ValerieAnne1970 <TalkingBollocks>So rounding the data for contrails down to 10,000 feet and the data for birds up to 10,000 feet, we can conclude that birds are continually flying in contrails.</TalkingBollocks>

@bluebirdk7 Did someone sign acceptance for the full inventory when they took K7 hostage?

[Geoff Smith @Geoff___Smith]

@otboae @bluebirdk7 I was 11 years old and on a bus which had just turned into Claremont Road from Barras Bridge heading for Cowgate (Bill will know exactly where I was😉) when someone with a transistor radio broke the news. The whole bus fell silent.

@TakeThatClouds That is just wrong - the sea is definitely not dry!

[Geoff Smith @Geoff___Smith]

@TakeThatClouds @sea_bouy Also:
Panels absorb roughly 80% of the incident IR but are thin and have a small thermal mass so get very hot.
The oceans absorb more than 90% of the incident IR in the first metre which has a large thermal mass so don't get very hot.
There's a lot bigger area covered by oceans.

@TakeThatClouds @zoeharcombe Tell a typical Texan it's going to be 30 degrees tomorrow and he'll light a fire.

@bluebirdk7 Sod the engineering, but make sure the paint is good enough to put it on display in a museum.

@DeborahClaireUK Len dug an-other hole.

@DeborahClaireUK "goung" How is that pronounced?
