No mate, it's dry and dead calm, so connection is good!

However, I haven't got anything prepared at the moment, I see that Mel's light is on, maybe he could put one up? Reg's light is on too, so he's up well late (or early), I'll declare Open House and hope that someone puts another up (or you Graeme).

It's time I hit the hay anyway, as I've got an early start and a busy day ahead, so I'll say goodnight gentlemen and thank you

Ok Graeme. There is a limit beyond which a mere Giggler will be kicked around freely. I'll be d--d, as I mentioned before .

Good night!

Oh I see, yes, wires crossed! That's what you townies get for having underground telecoms and flooded cableways!! Shorted wires, not good!!

Good night to you too Reg, sleep well. I'll try and sort something out for the morning shift and put it up then if nothing else appears in the meantime.

Nice silhouette mate!

I was thinking Russian as in Junkers H-22 or American as in Boeing XP-9, but they're bad thoughts.

Fokker?

Good evening Graeme,

Sorry for the slow response, I got into work to find our server down and IT guy off sick , it will take a while before it's fully back, but I've just patched the internet to bypass the server so I can monitor the challengs, which is Russian as you surmised, but not a Junkers, 'tiz indigenous!
