Guess the memory is still sore wit...

Re: Gleann Dubh Lighe bothy destroyed in fire

I'm pleased (if that's the word) to be able to say that this was a genuine accident (involving a leaking gas cylinder), no-one was hurt and the person involved contacted us immediately afterwards. A leaking gas cylinder as in a camping gas one how the hell did that burn the place down is unbelievab...

Re: Mull Logistics

I got off the ferry spring 2010 to find that there is not a bus for every ferry and ended up waiting for the next ferry to arrive which did have a bus running. There was about a dozen other folks in the same position. Ended up hammered in the boozer. Got off the bus eventually and was chased up the ...

Re: Wind Farms

Re: Elbrus : The highest in Europe. Part 3 : The Deathly door!

Re: Wind Farms

Once again We build wind farms to provide people electricity to power their keyboards to say "we hate this power" :lol:

You achieve nothing believe me but the turbines I helped build are powering you to talk pish for years to come. :lol:

Re: Wind Farms

Even though I have had a PM telling me to "sort my line" from someone with an obvious hate of the turbines I would like to add one point: Who sits punching keyboards talking P##h and gets nothing done out of it! Who gets these built because they WORK! (We wouldnt do it otherwise. no one wi...

Re: Wind Farms

Co2 is used for fires with electrical goods. For obvious reasons! The problem with Co2 is it odour less and moves very fast starving everything of oxygen. One tank on the railway has a far worse effect than anything else coming from Hunterston. (Spent fuel) You can google it on carbon capture power ...

Re: Dogs out of control

I remember I thought I had trained wee Gus as a puppy to crap outside. One day I found him sneaking out from under the stairs where I found loads of turds. I had only trained him to think "dont **** in front of me"!
