At times like these you realise you need a strong magnet on a stick. 

 

Or you could just let the car tyres find them.

Tough luck if they are brass 😄

 

But all may not be lost. I suppose it might be possible to heat them up with radio frequency energy then use thermal imaging to find them. Mind you, it might be easier just to buy more screws.

If Poland is a lot flatter because you have been cycling over it, you must have a bl00dy heavy bike.

And if you really want to stretch it out, don't forget Junction!

I once heard a similar joke that ended, "Welcome to Jamaica, have a nice day."

True story: I was once in a bar where there were an Englishman (me) an Irishman, a Scotsman and a Welshman. The Welshman, being the first to cotton on to the possibilities, said, "Bl00dy 'ell, you lot are a joke."

Why don't we just call them out by numbers like they do in prisons? Saves a lot of time when everyone already knows them all.

 

Of course it's important to remember it's the way you tell them that really matters if you want to get a laugh.

Flying Scotsman has cost everyone who has owned it, post-British Railways, a fortune.

 

I was at the RAF Museum this afternoon, (sadly Hangar 5, which I missed in my rushed visit last year, was closed!  However, Squadron Leader, I took the opportunity to photograph your old office:

Most inconvenient if that's your telephone number..........................

Sometimes I'm a bit slow. When I'm drawing something in CAD I tend to think as if I'm carving it out of solid metal and do it in that order. So, start with a lump then take bits off and drill and bore holes as required.

 

But that's quite unnecessary in CAD. In CAD you can construct solids where one solid represents the outer body and the other solid represents the holes. Then you simply subtract the holes from the body, like this.
