Again its that time of the month and again the weather doesn't want to play ball.
At least the forecast says its going to be a mild 11°c with the possibility of rain in our neck of the woods.

So providing the rain isn't to heavy how about we meet up in Newbury at Maccy Ds for 10:30, then head over to George Whites at Swindon, from there we will head over to H-Cafe for a late lunch, I'm sure I can workout a interestiing route

really tempting....but....bike stuff tomorrow so will have to do something special to get Sunday too ;)

shame as I need some new kit for DD - helmet, boots, gloves - so trip to GW would be just the ticket

Dumbass, dont you know that
A typical magnetic confinement fusion plasma is 15 keV, or 170 megakelvins

Therfore we must asume that he used to work at Harwell and that an iphone would know this.

Craig 15keV is a bit weedy

The Helios Linac I was originally recruited for to run and maintain was
136MeV

as for any radiation its a myth

unless you read this 110 page report http://eprints.gla.ac.uk/39214/1/39214.pdf

How many times is that already this year 4, 5, 6 or even more

Nice to be out with mates today, roads were pretty dirty but mainly dry, which is always a good thing as was the mild weather. Nice not to have to wear an extra layer or two.

I'm pretty sure Kev's Multistrada has a problem with its headlight, from what I could see in my mirror it was up and down all over the place :)
