We've got even worse to come tomorrow and Monday apparently.

I suppose next thing we'll be hearing is a spate of fires from people being careless with Barbecue over this hot weekend.   :rolleyes:

Quote from: Raven on Yesterday at 12:49:00 PMEnjoy your heatwave, we're not getting one, might reach 17c if we're lucky. But it's to be overcast with showers.

Yeah but you've got all that lovely scenery !  :grin:

Oh dearie me the fakos from the Floptilla are getting a good hiding from  the Spanish police for being obstructive at Bilbao airport .


The Israelis are  condemning the Spanish police for mistreating their own Spanish activists  😀
Maybe they will report them to the UN .
.....of course no one care ( no Jews no news ) and has long as it's not Israelis doing it most people are pleased to see these annoying middle class shysters getting a real beating .

I can't remember exactly why but I think I'd been delayed on a job in Spain and was flying back on a Sunday and couldn't get a direct flight so had to use an internal connecting flight.

It would  have been from Alicante as that was where the new Ford plant was and I think it was to Barcelona. Now I was used to odd noises from plane servos as wing geometry is changed but not the damned graunching grinding racket that plane made. It was a jet not one of Francos bombers left over from the civil war but must have had either had a very hard life or a very long one. I was relieved when it touched down and relieved that there had been no turbulence.

Doubly relieved having seen the Spanish approach to work and maintenance. I had very soon learned that mañana does not mean tomorrow as many think. The more precise translation is definitely not today.

These scary memories make me wonder . . .  maybe there is some truth in the saying - " If we were meant to fly, we'd have wings." 

We were only designed to walk, and maybe swim,  -  not fly.  :wink:
