Corsair Voyager/Survivor Vs Armoured Personnel Carrier!

[Andrzej]

As happy as I am to hang on to miles - I am equally happy to lose every other imperial measurement !

I am going with a ton* equals 1,000 Kg

Might not be 100% right - but it does make the maths easier


*any spelling!

instead of wireless microphones how about using blootooth headsets for mobile phones?
get Nick to talk into his and whoever the cameraman is, plonk his phone (i.e. duck tape it) next to the camera microphone and voila wireless mics. but you being clever blokes will probably come up with VOIP or SKYPE free wi-fi connection thingies.

i would do a drawing in paintbrush to illustrate but i've just sneezed all over my mouse.

anyway, thank you andrzej for the ribena, although i am a bit full from the 24 kinder eggs, 4 packs of crisps,2 pasties and 3 cups of coffee i have just had for tea.

Yeah, now that's a great way to maintain a healthy immune system Mind you I did enjoy tucking into my Ben & Jerry's Bohemian Raspberry (£2 @ Asda!) ice cream last night. Well I had been out kayaking all day in the glorious sunshine

[stevie lee]

i don't tend to think about medical type thingies like immune systems. in 2004 when i did 1 week at knowsley safari park as part of princess trust, i was on the lake farm shovelling all sorts of animal dung (no flash drives in it sadly, yes yet another reference to feeding one a dog ) and i didn't wash hands before butty time, yummy - cheese and ham with special sauce .


ooh just thought of another suggestion for destroying hardware, clamp it to those handy electric pylons you see in fields, pumping a few thousand volts through it. If it has any capacitors left, plug it in and see if it works. or just hook it to a car battery, use the car that someone ran into a while ago i'm sure whoever the cars is won't mind.

Fairy snuff!

[Andrzej]

...Fairy...

Not Farey ?

...a few thousand volts through it...

OK - no promises - but you just reminded me that a mate of mine left 'bomb-disposal in the army' to work on high-tension electrics for the National Grid... If I get a chance to hook up with him - then I'll ask him for some ideas around electricity

...kayaking...

You don't find it just a little bit lonely out there in the silence with just your paddles ?

...24 kinder eggs, 4 packs of crisps,2 pasties and 3 cups of coffee...

Now THAT's what you call 'proper ill' - when your appetite and internal temperature sensors run amok

Not a chance! There's the oyster farmers working the rivers and the estuary, seals basking in the sun; so much wildlife and activity making it impossible to be lonely. The autumn sun has kept the ferry operators busy, sail boats with their little motors churning up the water; there's little silence to be had.

Cornwall's got one hell of a maritime history and it's evident. I've got miles and miles of water to cross and shoreline to explore. No two days are the same out there; all conditions and tides to combat and the changing seasons bring something new to see.

It's a dirt cheap hobby and great exercise to boot. I can't recommend it highly enough

Yep... and if you do get away from that lot there's bound to be a group of cableknit sweatered folks singers breaking into an accordian accompanied fol-de-rol or something... How come they all start off with "twas on the 12t of May that the ship did... blah blah blah..." in a nasally twang.

That'll be the emmets trying to fit in and failing misserably

well i was wearing a t-shirt and 2 jumpers yesterday in 15 celcius and had thermal gloves on.


regarding kayaking, i was getting out of one at what i thought was the edge of the river turned out the seaweed was 4 feet thick. it was -2 celcius then, and yes i did get a cold.

YEY someones actually listened to an idea of mine and is considering it you will never shut me up now.

Have a chat with a university and ask if you can borrow a vandergraf (sp?) generator. They use big ones to test the ceramic shields that stop all that zoltage running from the wire into the pylons.

EDIT: aslo ask him if he knows were you can get hold of some powered aluminum and iron oxide
Go on have some fun with thermite.

See, I am a proper cityboi, and - when you say that - in my mind the sentance finishes "...but police still have not discovered the remains of Andrzej's body..."
<shivers>
I feel lost in fields - but somehow secure in the smog

Well adjusted - eh !

[Andrzej]

... fun with thermite...

Made that as a kid (my forays into chemistry usually ended with explosives) and burnt a HUGE hole in my bedroom table

[regaleagle]

I just found this part of the site. I thought this was only a forum but that was brilliant.

[Lee H]

I want to know what the folks at corsair think of these videos.

Have you had any feedback as yet ?
