Well, for me work has been a bit busy and has had me "on the road" this last week or so - as such I have had to cut back on both meaningful and trivia posts (not even much of me having a go at George @Bealman  about Sunderland ;) ) . Anyway I am saving up quite a bit on both SPAM and wagon building projects which I will get to during the upcoming Golden Week holiday here....

Quote from: weave on April 25, 2026, 11:24:59 AMMight not be the case here but I take all my pics on a phone. Take them in 'landscape' no problem, take them in 'portrait' either upside down or on side. Therefore take them in 'landscape', simples!

How one moves the phone between portrait and landscape matters. If the phone is lying flat when the camera app is opened, it will default to portrait. It is then possible to pick the phone up and rotate it toward landscape without the device registering the change, particularly when the subject lies below the photographer. If one first holds the phone vertically true before rotating, the sensors gain a clear sense of which way is 'up', and the orientation switches reliably.

Love it! Apple green and teak, my favourite colour scheme.

Cheers,

A new arrival at Elmsbridge Central. The fineness of the livery on no. 4791 is astounding!

Quote from: Southerngooner on Today at 01:14:36 PMWhen I've posted recently I've had a few likes but no replies, which makes me think people aren't interested in what I'm posting.

You really shouldn't think that. "Likes" and similar show appreciation and don't pollute the thread with loads of "great stuff!" posts.

Quote from: Moonglum on Yesterday at 08:30:56 PMI missed them first time around but a little while ago a friend lent me a DVD of a live concert by Whitesnake recorded in 2004. It had a bonus CD with it which I copied and played to death!

Mick @Newportnobby you might like this... Deep Purple of course...


I think that is Animal from the Muppets on drums...

Tim

"Ain't No Love" is worth a listen.
You know what I'm going to say to that...........??  :D

Short but good!
I like that but then I liked the first posting that you made a while back.

A bit like a cross between early Hawkwind and, for those who know them, early Black Widow.

Sorry,Tim, but much though I like the Deep Purple 'Burn', that version is pretty grim. The vocals seem strangulated  :thumbsdown:

Sorts out my never ending issues with the same thing. Cheers, Weave!
