Bodø, Norway. Sadly I am going back there - next March. (Sorry any Norwegians who live there - maybe I caught it on a bad day.) What was wrong with Svalbard Tyronet? Apart from being cold that is.

We didn't get any "Shore Leave" and not a lot of sleep banging about in the ice and working 12 hours...

that's why I posted in 'another pointeless thread', don't think there's an 'offtopic' thread here is there? Other random thoughts: boxing/martial arts photos look MUCH better in B&W for some reason. why do so few people own Pentax dslrs? it's not as if they're worse that the leaders quality...

I think slide rules have become an interesting curiosity, much like those of us still shooting slide film and occasionally projecting the results. Talking of which, the KX seems to have survived its freezer treatment perfectly. Finished the roll of film and posted it today, now to see if it surv...

I'd rather just stay on GMT all year round. Less confusing than fiddling with the clocks at two arbitrarily chosen times of year. Putting digital clocks back an hour is a real pain.

I could never understand people being presented with a watch or clock on their retirement. I would have thought the last thing they would want to worry about is the time :roll: My Happiest Days were the day I finished work and the next day when I realised I didn't have to go back. Before that Happ...

Once you retire, work doesn't dictate where you live any more. My wife retired in 2004 aged 52 and moved to live in our 'holiday' home in southern Spain. After selling our house and passing on the day to day running of our family IT business to our son, I followed in 2006 aged 56. I was allowed t...

I don't think luck comes into it. I wouldn't fancy doing this in a 4-seater Cessna, lat alone a large jet. Even so, he had it relatively easy, with bags of fuel, plenty of time to find a nice into-wind runway, long enough to accommodate the inevitably fast approach. No taking anything away - i...
