Oh, I remember it well :-)

Clayton Call/Redferns, via Getty Images Phil Lesh, Bassist Who Anchored the Grateful Dead, Dies at 84 One of the first rock bassists whose instrument regularly took a lead role, he also had a hand in writing some of the band’s best-known songs. 84, eh? Pretty good for a rock star. Especially...

I was good at mental arithmetic too but it caused me to get into trouble - we had a test where a set of problems were written up on the board and we had to write down the answers. I did just that and because I had not "shown my working" the teacher thought I must have been cheating and I got...

I was a maths geek at school. While doing A levels (class of '71 too) I got a book of the ultra cool five-figure tables. Ten times as impressive.

This variant is fun - it takes a bit of time to get your head round it. You are guessing a 5x5 grid with three words going left-right intersecting crossword-wise with three words going top-down. your first guess is marked against row1 and column1 but also tells you if you have any of the letters...

(Sorry, I dunno how to get it to show the picture..) This is brilll, but terrifying. I have seen it so often.... Driver caught trimming beard while on motorway

Really the wee dog on the ear should have a wee dog on its ear ....

Oh, good spot!

Found elsewhere whilst I was time-wasting on the net ...

I put a new battery in my iSpindel recently. Charged it up, popped the battery into the holder, holder into the tube, tube into brew [* this is the edited highlights version]. Eventually the iSPindel stopped sending. Final reading had a battery value of 3.32. It had sent me 128 hourly readings...

This is a hoot - even a flock of sheep run a mile when Rish! approaches... clapa

Brilliant!! I never knew that! Thanks! Sure can! This link is valid for 6 hours only, till just before 1a.m. Thursday. PM me and I can generate another as required - https://brewspy.app/share/pff723065v9p40dh28e0qmj87k Dunno. I have not opened the FV ( it's in a low level corner cupboard...

I don't get the angle in the 'raw data' table (on BrewSpy) but I can see the tilt angle in the popup data for each point on its chart. That is only available from 2024-04-13 11:17 onwards - it seems to show that we are getting a tilt variation consistent with the gravity numbers. I'll have to...

Thanks for the caution @RoomWithABrew, I'll check when I get the iSpindel out of the brew. It is waking up and sending every 3 hours at present so I presume it's not got flooded but I'll confirm the tube integrity. Something odd, though. Friday night I changed the battery, put the iSpindel in...

Well, I put the new battery in, turned it on and left it in a pan of plain water and it's givern reads of 0.996-0.998 overnight so I'm good with that for now. I've dropped it in a recent brew and will compare what it says with the measured FG when it stops changing. If that's close enough then...

Thank you JB, that's a bit more straightforward than a method I saw elsewhere. I'll give it a go. It's still charging up at the moment.

Hello, I purchased a replacement battery from CPC Farnell for my iSpindel (I gave up on my previous order after all my attempts at communication disappeared into a black hole) - I now have a couple of questions. First dumb question: How do I change the battery? I take the top off the iSpindel...

We drive past there quite often on the way to see family in Scotland and I have often wondered why it was originally built (just an elevated cafe? Really??) & what it would be like to be in there.
