There is understandable concern following this news report.

Let’s try to break down what has happened. 🧵

You can't find porn in bushes any more. And, come to think of it, the reverse is also true.

Makes sense. One more thing - noticed you went 3+ hours on Thursday morning at 5 minute gaps with no breaks. Did you run 5 launches on a fast rotation, or did you use Ariadne too? I wasn't paying enough attention 😅

Thx Matt, that's pretty much what I thought was happening. It was nice to see you on Sunday of HWR, I hope the driveshaft issue with Ulysses(?) got sorted.

If it's not too silly a question - why not have two cameras? I know there's a cost involved.

Thank you to whoever left this offering on the tow hitch of my trailer in Butler's Field yesterday. It's good to see the Old Ways still respected.

Something... Odd going on with the HRR launches now. Boadicea seems to be doing every third race (top and bottom of the hour) while the other 4 launches fill the gaps. Presumably to get B's camera behind some high profile races. Maybe @mattpinsent.bsky.social can confirm

I seem to recall that to become a saint, you have to have two verifiable miracles. Big Sam has that covered, as 7 (Seven!) different clubs have actually decided to employ him in the last 15 years.

London Rowing Club have had this truck stolen overnight. White Ford Transit, double cab, dropside, with LRC flag on doors and bonnet. LD66 OTM but it may be on false plates. It may still be in the Putney area for a few days. @mattpinsent.bsky.social @almurray.bsky.social can you RT?

Isn't the second one just League?

Stewie @stewieatb.bsky.social · Jan 28

The secondary hot take might be "golf club starts on reclaimed land, is surprised it's a bit wet, spends 105 years whinging about it to authorities, and eventually train gets derailed"

Stewie @stewieatb.bsky.social · Jan 28

And the endless hodgepodge of temporary solutions and half-arsed studies eventually leads to a train derailed and a railway out of action for a month.

If you wanted an in-depth indictment of everything that's wrong with how all arms of British government do things in the 21st century, it's probably this RAIB report @antbreach.bsky.social www.gov.uk/government/n...
NR, council(s), MMO and EA fail to make water flow downhill for 100 years.
