ViperMK2 Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 I'm in home territory tomorrow, Matlock and Bakewell, sheer nirvana compared to the polluted cesspit of Sheffield and surrounding areas As the days go by, we face the increasing inevitability that we are alone in a godless, uninhabited, hostile and meaningless universe.

arfur mo Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 AngusIts not that old it came out in 1991 I think, and the newer models have a ten event log. Now the Castle panels are old, the ones with the toggle switch to isolate the zone if you can remember that far back. Kev going that far back Kev - no probs you mere 'upstart' , i can go back as far as when bakerlite lighting switches were used as 'shunts'. mercury bottles were used on shop windows - yes with real mercury in them as fitted on internal roller shutters - now what would h&s exec make of that today even ebony coated coper wire (yes like that found on transformer windings) was used as laced wiring, held with insulated staples and all the worse thing though about being my age is filling in insurance proposal forms, so you scroll down to year of birth and i get "to be continued" regs alan If you think education is difficult, try being stupid!!!!
