It is not a sewage vent, they are much taller, the top rotates easily in the wind and the vane keeps the hole facing into the wind so I presume it is to supply fresh air to something underground, the only thing I could think of was a storm water pipe but otherwise I have no clue. Any ideas?
Nice walk this morning with intermittent sunshine afterwards I watered a few plants showing signs of distress, it has not rained since before Christmas so the ground is really dry. It has looked like rain for days but not a drop has fallen.
I have been thinking how sad and upsetting is this. Having used a very essentual used household item, such as a toilet paper, you watch it vanish down the toilet bowl,never to be seen by you again. it is enough to bring tears to your eyes.
Good morning!
Bright, clear, sunny, and cold. There was a frost earlier but it’s slowly melting
Who’s been a good boy then?
I’ve just about finished the Christmas goodies and started to use my large amount of fruit & veg
Last night I had a sort of stir fry with the usual stuff - peppers, onions, garlic, diced beef
Thought about having a can of beer while I was cooking it, and opening a bottle of wine to drink with it, but just had water all day
So far today I’ve done some tai chi, which I must admit had slipped for a while
And as it’s a nice day I’ll go for a walk.
I notice that a couple of Forum Members go on regular morning walks or jogs (apologies but I can’t remember who they are at the moment) and I should do something like that … but you’ve heard it all before.
One of my neighbours goes for a walk every morning , even in bad weather as long as it’s not icy
She’s 94 and puts me and the rest of our neighbours to shame.
White and frosty start to the day here by the seaside, just come back from my daily walk and swan feeding. Not sure what’s happening today, wife wants to do some shopping and collect some parcels. May go for a drive out to the forest later with my trusty camera, or go somewhere else to take a pic. Beyond that, I’m in the hands of my daily coffee. At least my flu is almost gone with just the dregs of it left.
Hello Everyone, Foxy reporting for duty…
Returned home from Scarborough yesterday after visiting the local Tesco for essentials.
It was colder than a witches bosom, and the wind was cruel, it was like a thousand needles hitting your face so we cranked up the heater and made a run for it. I have no idea how those EV’s can supply the same heat as a 1.5 Litre turbo charged diesel engine…
The sea was so rough and pounding over the promenade but it didn’t deter the surfers or the brave souls who took the New Years Day dip for charity…
It hasn’t gone much above freezing here, but fortunately no snow yet. Haven’t been out for my walk/jog yet as it’s a rest day, but having missed the last couple of days I might go later.
Judging by the manhole next to it Bruce, I would think that Swimfeeders is right, some sort of aerobic digesting tank. (aerobic, with oxygen, anaerobic, without oxygen) A sprinter runs anaerobically because the amount of oxygen he would need travelling at that sort of speed would be impossible for his lungs and heart to supply his muscles continuously. I also run anaerobically, although not nearly as fast, because my heart and lungs can’t supply my muscles to run any longer than just a few minutes, even at jogging pace.
