    These are bowlers, batsman and wickets…………….and I think that is a Spitfire or similar.

    when you are slumped on an armchair there’s no room for a mouse, and too lazy for proxies, hence the slumped posture :p

    but chicken doesn’t taste of chicken, more usually it tastes of fish nowadays. Never had a satisfactory answer to why? It’s a conspiracy

    And where is it still light at 22:00hrs (10:00pm) outside, at any time of the year, in Britain? Extreme northern Scotland maybe…

    Not as extreme north as you think. Sunset in Glasgow this week is around 21:10BST. By the end of June (solstice) it will be around 22:07BST staying light until well after 11, and sunrise around 04:20BST, getting light well before 4.

    At the winter solstice its a very different story, with sunrise around 8:45GMT and sunset at 15:45GMT.

    Abolish all this mucking around with the clock.

    Next trip – anybody fancy a day down at the Dumfries and Galloway Aviation Museum ( Dundonald )

    I’d be up for that, There’s a lot of stuff to look at in the old control tower at Dumfries. 70 Miles south of Gla.

    In true Blue Peter fashion, here’s one I prepared earlier:

    don’t see that, no custom avatar box! Just checked with my old ken_murray account, and the box is there. Looks like there is a minimum number of posts required greater than the old system (same for custom title)

    INFINITY!

    shouldn’t that read available disk space? unless you know something that you’d like to pass on to fellow IT manglers 🙂

    just spotted the bullet beside the username in replies, appears to be green for online users, and blue for offline. Comments Webby?

    Wasn’t it on the bottom of the last forum as well? And only shown on the home page. We can move things like this, depending on how many other people would find it useful. A custom template can be created which you then choose to use rather than the default one.

    WM

    I seem to remember that the home page had all online members at the bottom, but each forum had on-line members browsing that forum at the top of the topic list.
