  2. SSDT Pre 65 2005 He's on a Cub (it were a Jimmy last year), it looks like Callert but I could be wrong and Spectators...Callert's too far to walk to The Prof will be here soon with the answer
  3. I think about 50% of the posts in Mechanical Talk are there because they've been moved by the forum mods
  4. Paul, while you're there could you try and get me some half inch holes for a half inch drill bit apparently they used to make them back then.....let me know how much I'll settle up in kinlochleven
  5. The Atlantic Conveyor was merchant ship sunk by the Argies during the Falklands Conflict in 1982. The Atlantic Conveyor is technically known as the North Atlantic Thermohaline Circulation and GLOBAL warming is not just about the UK. There are various factors keep the UK and continental shelf free of sea ice , the "wrapping" effect of a shelf does not stop sea ice in other areas of the globe so your argument falls flat there, it is not a significant factor. Try this link for explanation NERC THC If it was that easy....
  6. So where do you want to start......Global Warming - the increase in the atmospheric temperature caused by mans interaction on the planet.......allegedly....how do we know??? The age of the planet and we know everything that's happened, ice cores, soil cores, tree rings can all tell you whats happened in the past but are you telling me that we've had the time to analyse millions of years of data in the short period that we've had the technology to do so. The Ozone Hole, we've only been able to measure atospheric ozone levels since the mid 50's (56 to be accurate) and the discovery of the hole in 85...come on as a scientist I cannot believe in the 23years since the hole was discovered all of a sudden we are in a cataclysmic downward spiral. Can the scientists categorically prove this has never happened before, no-one can categorically prove that this is not just part of a regular cycle of the earths climate or if they can then I've read nothing on it yet. So now the bit they don't tell you: warming of the levels they suggest in the best MODELS/Suggestions includes the Hadley Centre, best source of climatological research in the world will dump massive amounts of FRESH water into the seas. If we talk Northern Hemisphere and the Atlantic, that fresh water reduces the salinity of the North Atlantic variation of the levels suggested will have the net effect of slowing or eventually stopping the Gulfstream. The net effect for the northern hemisphere is not massive warming but the rapid descent into the next ice age and in terms of time scales we're not talking geological time but over the space of tens of years, this is the biggy they don't talk about..........
  7. Hocus pocus mumbo jumbo............pi$$ed off with all this GW hype..wish someone would actually publish the real net effect of GW...
  8. I knew that.......but saw HE was watching. Would HE admit to relatives that far south.......

  11. Oil, unburnt petrol in the baffles heating up and catching file....happenned to me last year on the way up the Penstock Road to Blackwater It also melted the softbloc mount on the middle pipe and dropped the exhaust onto the Brake hose...expensive.

  18. You'll understand when you get that bit older Jamie, a bottle opener is the most important commodity in lfe. I have one on my key ring, I have one in my tool box and one in my Hockey Kit bag......some day young master Stokes you'll understand....
  19. Hey Bow Wow, had to make the same decision a couple of years back and i've never regretted it however when my old TLR was sold recently on e-bucket, I'd have sold my stroppy daughter to get it back (only kiddin bex, yeah she reads TC as well) really wished I had the foldy paper stuff to get it back. Sometimes you have to make a call but once made don't regret it, you can't change what's happenned.
