I’m afraid ‘Google it’ is going to be with us for a long time Pug, well at least until they figure out a way of inserting a micro computer into the brain, then they will be saying ‘Think it’.
As you know well Pug, if I want to get to the roots of something I prefer to ‘Puggle it’, pluck it off the ‘Gumtree’ or hear it throughout the ‘Fruit vine’
I remember that coffee smell Fruity, there used to be a shop in Grafton Street here called Bewleys did all that, every morning I had to pass it on the way to work, lovely, I can smell it now.
Well pardon me, I didn’t think you or RJ were into the highly technical stuff Spitty, always thought you were more into space and black holes, that kind of thing, a whole different field of technology, one could say a ‘Spitfield’
Chew on this one then.
I remember looking into a forum last year that answered questions about the moon landings, I still have grave doubts about the moon landings, I need more answers before I’m convinced. Some of the answers were pathetic, the Admin of the site seemed to get very angry with the questions, many were deleted, I looked again today but the site is no longer there, is there something to hide? I should have thought questions about such a fantastic achievement would be welcomed.
This question didn’t get an answer, seems a simple enough one for any scientific mind to answer.
“There was a video in which one of the astronauts was hitting something with a hammer, the loud thud was audible. How is that possible if no sound waves can travel in a vacuum?”
That wasn’t you with the hammer by any chance Spitty? “Somebody’s knockin’ on the dow-er, somebody’s ringing the bell…”
The one thing…or,should I say,the most PERTURBING thing,about those ‘Moon Landings’,was,to my mind,that ‘Moon-buggy’ they rode around on…which,miraculously,didn’t need to keep it’s centre of gravity aimed toward the spherical centrifuge which would be spinning rapidly in the vacuum immediately behind it,as that would NO LONGER be a vacuum…but would be inundated with colliding spicules of non-graviationally orientated Moondust,lifted into articulated rotational suspension by the vibrational movement of the uppermost sedimentary crust as that ‘Moonbuggy’ whizzed about;ergo,that thing SHOULD have left a slight fog suspended behind it wherever it went…but it didn’t.

'ello 'ello’ello did someone call my name or derivative of same as wot is??
just arrived back lunch time sunday [ours not yours - you don’t have sundays anymore since yuve all become ’ even do ya?
do stick in there sweetiepie you are more a match for these characters anyday - I can email their individual weakenesses if yuz likes ?
stuck in the forest there was clowns to the left of me and jokers to the right and not a tv aerial that would give us the test cricket - so we had to play with the kids and talk to each other -wot as bore! [only jokin]
so wots 'appenin 50/50 so far and a few broken fingers??
well it was good to catch up with the laddie in the relative peace and quiet of the forest - he wined me and dined me and cigared me and it was a delight -then we caught up with some of the local family next day and amazingly forgot all about the cricket.
storms are abrewing in the region so he has to get back home before he gets flooded on the way.
Apropos of absolutely NOTHING we are/have been/are likely to bring up as, a subject for discussion…I have,after several days of testing both,decided the Android mobile communication device is MUCH more user-friendly and open to ‘favourable adjustment’ regarding the preferences of the user.
So-I’m retaining this rather natty,almost comical in it’s abilities Samsung J5 thingy…and the iphone 7,which is humourless and allows ONLY 1st-party apps of little or no joviality,can go onto that well-known internet sales site.
So your happy with the Samsung then Pug.
There was I about three years ago thinking I was doing the right thing, going portable and light by buying a Galaxy 2 seven inch screen pad, how disappointed I was, i’m on a very high speed broadband but I couldn’t believe how long it took for pages to load, when I took it out to the garden on a sunny day I could make out bugger all on the screen, touch screen? I couldn’t see it to touch it, definitely not for me, great for the younger folks but not for an old lad like me, never used the thing since, give me the laptop or desktop with a big screen, fast loading and easy to use and I’m happy with that.
Glad you had a nice time Gummy, I hope you enjoy the rest of the cricket and may the best team win.
I see Paddy Power’s odds are Australia 1/8 England 10/1 for to win the series, 11/1 the draw. Worth a tenner bet on the outsider would you say?
oh no my my we must have the rules to be broken sometimes - I loved the almost catch yesterday when both fielders went for the catch at the same time - now was that against the algorithms or just the biorythms that stuffed them up - they looked quite bemused
I need a more up to date satellite receiver box so I was looking them up. I get a lot of things from Aliexpress in China, very nice crowd to deal with.
Sometimes I get a good laugh at the descriptions of the items, whatever gets lost in translation, for example the box I liked, it tells me that I can upgrade “My Softwart” and “Please stop pressing button for recording” “Go backwards if you want to get a time shifting” “You will then have to toggle manually as we can’t” “Once plugged in it will stop working all over the World” “Please come with your own wifi dongle to stick in”
I’m not kiddin’
Honest to God it’s a pantomime doing business with them, I love it.
I will give the Chinese full credit for their honesty when selling you something, they always point out the pros and cons up front and never any messing about getting your money back if not satisfied, something western businesses could learn from.:-)
I too have upgraded my mobile communication device. I went from shouting louder, to tin cans and string, to a portable rechargeable telegrammataphone. I can make and receive telephone calls. I can even laboriously type out misspelled lexicons and both send and receive them through the ether.
It is from a period when I worked, and got sent to places where people pointed guns at you if they got a sniff of a camera. I suppose when it eventually stops doing what it currently does I shall change it for something a bit more modern, but I have no intention of carrying something around with a screen bigger than my old Dad’s first telly.
Perhaps someone will invent one that unfolds into something of a readable size, but still packs away smaller than a Mars bar.
Meanwhile I will leave you with this. How versatile.
