I'm late this morning, 06:40 for me. I'm usually at it from 06:00 - 06:15.

x 8 from here? Every chance. Why you feel you have to talk down your investment is beyond me, Fosters, it's like shooting yourself in the foot. Repeatedly.

And now 117 plays 75 - methinks their algorithms need a tweak....

I'm a bit hacked off, I'm below Bolgas! 111 plays 79 :-(

In the green bin.

The high-pressure steam pipework in power stations is made from CrMoV (Chrome-Moly-Vanadium) steel which has anything from 0.5% to 8% of Vanadium in it. It is creep-resisting at temperatures up to about 600C. If you took the lagging off the pipework, the pipes would glow a dull red in the dark. A 500MW generating set has a boiler that contains about 3,000 tons of water at a temperature approaching 600C and a pressure of about 3,000psi. Not the sort of thing you want to have burst.

... if ever it were needed, that you can't polish a turd.

... that you can't give a negative recommendation. Should that be a condemnation?

That'll be why I have upwards of 1.3 million golden tickets then, won't it?

Talk-talk-talking to myself.

He was uncomfortable, he didn't know why, exactly. The brooding anvil clouds were building in the midsummer skies. He noticed that the little hairs on his arms were beginning to writhe and stand up without his volition. He had a dreadful feeling of impending doom. Suddenly, there was an actinic flash and a sound more felt than heard. Where ShinyHappyPeople and JourneyOfFrance had been standing, there were two smoking craters, surrounded by charred gobbets of greasily smoking flesh.

@gkb47, they CAN sell the stuff twice - that's what electrolyte leasing is all about...

Tired of you already, binned.

About 6p, why do you ask? Drifter88, had enough of you. In the green bin.

... Wood is a cycling route in Northumberland. Busted, Capa.

Possibly best answered by Ophidian? How long does it take to bring a rotary kiln on-stream from stone cold? My experience with power stations would lead me to expect some timescale between six and 24 hours.

Reminds me of when I was living in Bordeaux in the 80s, saw an ad in the back pages of the local rag:

"Canadien, veut echanger Canadienne, 42, pour deux Francaises, 21."

I'll have two, one for the missus!

When there's one worth having that's affordable, I'll do it. I was a driver for a BMW dealership for a while last year and I loved the i3 as a car for driving, but it was priced at double its worth and it looked like the bastard offspring of a shoebox and a milk container. The range of 180 miles put the nail in its coffin.

I had a BMW 535d M Sport Touring on the strength of BMN and I wish you much joy with the Audi R8!
