Damm the BBC! They've cancelled robot wars again. Anyone want to buy a wheel chair chassis and a pair of motor controllers. I've suddenly ended up with a spare set.

Have you ever stopped to think, and forgotten to start again

    Yes,that happens to me all the time...
    But there is worse, there is the "water hammer effect". When you are thinking and you try to stop and your brain starts bouncing back and forth between thinking and not.

old original

Bits that have lasted 25, 26, 27 years get replaced, and the new bits only last 25, 26, 27 MONTHS, if you are lucky. Somebody's making money somewhere!

    Minispares do their best to manufacture parts to original spec but lower volumes now mean most big component manufacturers are no longer interested. Therefore price goes up or quality comes down to compensate....or in worst case both!

Decided to read the travel advice about Japan. Nothing surprising, risk of typhoons, earthquakes, Godzilla, etc. Then I Google travel advice for the UK. Holy Hell do we sound like an unsafe place compared to other countries.

    Ergh, i got the shivers thinking of that. Had a tech screw go through my finger once... that wasn't comfortable.
