My tablet is really slooooow ! Must be bits per year now! Must be all this live streaming I suppose. Too many people with colds ! :whistle:

I had the system update to Oreo, 8.1, on mine and it's not been as good as it was before the update

All the doors are rattling and it's very noisy outside.
Today, I am mostly in Capetown....

Time for a grumble: I do wish women cyclists wouldn't take their husband's surname once they've become established as a competitor. Particularly when they marry another cyclist. I'm looking at you Laura. When I heard Kenny had won gold in the national championships I thought her husband had won it.
 
Having another plumpitty day here today. Mind, I couldn't have chosen a better day for it. Not bothered with the birdy county thing - think the birds have the same idea as me as it's truly ghastly outside.

Although I did move some logs and brought a fresh sack of coal in.

Also printed the card I was sorting in photoshop last night in preparation for Tuesday's intended plans. The intention is to meet up with some racing friends, raise a glass to a racing driver we're all fans of, and then go visit his grave. It would've been his 50th birthday.
 
Saaay whaaaat?

It measures the moisture content in the air: wood constantly expands and contracts according to the air humidity, so the curve in the wood will change all the time. I'm guessing @MikeG has laminated two different woods which will expand and contract at different rates to produce the curve.

Most cabinet makers in Germany have one that uses horse hair, of all things: apparently it is even more sensitive than wood and can give extremely accurate readings.

I never knew that, very clever.
