Hey @kevstar , grandson tells me all of Seil has a powercut, due to some dunderheid having cut through a cable or summat. do you know anything about it? Seeing as you is the Guru for western Scottyland!
Yeah, I do know that, but he seems to go to Oban every now and then and the bush telegraph seems pretty quick.
I did a search on tinternet and found feck all.
Maybe my Gson has got it wrong and it is more local. but he ain't stupid, promise.
What with all the windy up there I'm surprised that you haven't got windy mills all over the place.We have a submarine cable from the mainland to Jura then across to us. Every few years either lightening or a clam bo*at destroys it and they have to be made in the Far East or somewhere like that and usually takes 3+ months to make, then they need to get the cable laying boat over and calm weather to lay it. It never makes the news either but then we have our own power station that keeps us going.
Apparently it’s quite economical too as it only burns 21000 litres of diesel a day
Funnily I was thinking that, but you beat me to it.
Typical!
Watcha making?We have chips!
No, these sorts of chips.
I need a custom washer to remove the backlash from the cross-slide.
It is all new to me so I need to do a bit more reading on the "how-to" front.
