To dream the impossible dream..

Oppos? aye, bitter rivals, the Red Sux....

I was lousy at the footy stuff, braw goalie though...

The Falklands thingy is worth the search....
The one with the BBC reporter is quite good,
we do have a purpose at the end of it...
Secret agent Bawb......

Over 56,000 entries in log....:laugh:
And if you don't have a dream...

Do they actually wear red sox(socks)?

I have some of it, all radios confiscated by the Argies bar one which was hidden.
All communication to the UK from The Falklands went through it after the surrender if I remember correctly.
You were the person who picked up the earlier transmissions and phoned the MOD!!

But who's counting anyway...

But he did stay up the river from me and is still very active...
Has the ironic ITN end to his call....
The VP station had two antennas, one in the open and a second hidden inside (like mine),
Funny, even with the drama between RUS and UKN, UKN hams are still very active....

Was out for a GC treat.....

There were me thinking you'd been involved in bringing the conflict to an end. Feel let down now, no tales of how you passed the information on.
Something to remember it by, that was public at least.
Less/fewer spaces to spaces to hide it than you as well.
Folk tend to forget they're there, until something like that. Then it can become a case of "Oh sure, you expect us to believe that was an amateur!"

Was it to pay for work being done/to be done...

I was on CB at that time....
Anyhoo..
To get to the start of the above, you need to navigate to the start of the relevant video content.
There are a few other videos relevant.
I'll have another look at it all tonight...
In amongst our ranks, there is some amazing people..
The main man behind this data FT8 I speak of is a Nobel Prize-winning physicist.

I'm being left in charge of Toodles...what a responsibilty :laugh:

Hate to think what your handle was, especially if work related.
I bought the magazine that came out the following year. Certain there's a picture of both ends of the radio link in it.
You don't count yourself as one of those amazing people!
Takes all sorts tinkering in their spare time I suppose.

GC trip was a bribe then...
Can you do with the responsibility!

You're certain it was the same person? He'd be into his eighties by now. If that is what the map is showing.

Can't beat a bit of mutual agreement. You did much carrying as payment.
The two nurses doing their own appointments, or are they working together to get you through the two appointments?
You'll get through it, somehow, don't worry...

Good for him. Shows you can be famous and still live a normal life.

Seems fair enough. She'll have no doubt checked/known beforehand there wouldn't be much you'd be buying...
They might take what they need, and then head back to their own departments!
Leaving you at a loose end as it were 'til they're done.
They have stronger painkillers there, maybe because it might hurt more.
Don't forget to ask for yer lolly fer being brave...

Damn, forgot the lolly.....could have had two.
Owdo
Could become addictive, and with the clocks set to change soon...

Back from a GC trip, yes, another..
'Free' coffee to get before the end of the month..
a nice jaunt home and a detour to see one of nodes out there..
I saw a photo and knew instantly what back road it was,
saw an OS benchmark on a bridge so stopped to bag it, but thinking back I may have logged this one...
I'll check later...

Twice in one day! You'll do yerssen a mischief carrying on like that.
The "free coffee" wouldn't be a McD's by any chance.
And that look from Mrs M, yer chauffeur, as you examined yer nodes. And again at the bridge for the benchmark.
If you have logged it before, don't let on...
Do it when there's little chance of being seen.

Coffee?
Part of the two free ones per month, just pay us £12 upfront for the year..
Obviously, they rip the erchie for the price of a scone etc....

Mountain bike now gone...
Passed it on to someone...
a wee bit more space in the garage....

I'm printed off a box and lid, I thought it said 2 hrs 50 but it 6 /50 :laugh:
I scale it up in size so hopefully both parts will fit, almost there..

Dual appointments seemed to go okay, a lesser below-the-knee one, so oh well.
Hit the sack for 40 this afternoon, 3 hrs later, a groggy Bawb awoke..
Best snorefest in ages...
She likes the odd wander, I'd been on the road a few times on the bike....
Now for some TV...
