..He is (for now) president of motor racing's FIA and was caught (pictured in a Sunday tabloid) with his trousers... and strategically placed chequered flag
... whilst being 'punished' and the stiletto 'threat' reminded me of the story
stilettos are, dare i say sexy though i do find them a little uncomfortable
I knew i'd end-up having to explain
- people in the news cheat in the most blatant, humiliating ways and are forgiven and i simply liked beer
here goes, picking-up on coils :
Not so much solenoids but I played around with dual ignition coils with the idea of boosting the plug spark. I seem to remember that the starter solenoids on some early ?automatics? would allow one to bypass the safety interlocks and fire up the engine from under the bonnet whilst in drive which could have ?fun? consequences.
Other sorts of coils are available but I won?t pretend to know anything about them which brings me a little explanation of what I was doing in the red light district of northern city. I?ve found a few photos of the Kelham Island industrial museum (located there) which I visited and found some very pleasant pubs in the area. (and a shot of a couple of colleagues doing a rather wet stroll near the Ribblehead viaduct). Working away gives the opportunity to experience other places without much further travel.
Near the Mosley Arms, I did get propositioned with ?are you looking business?? (though I wasn?t wearing a pin stripe suit) by a rather attractive blonde lady of about 30. Despite having plenty of dosh at that time, I of course declined any monetary transaction though she thanked me for complimenting her on her appearance. She was wearing a long dress which seems unusual from images shown in the media and brought to mind the ?curved air? track ?back street love? as it seemed to fit the circumstances (Summer but she was seated on some steps not a wall) . I had a bit of a very non-PC joke about my encounter with the DJ in a pub I liked to visit where they?d have a pop music quiz.
Back to dancing ? it?s replaced pubs as my favourite evening social activity which is probably a very good thing in that I think I?m going to need my limited wits about me (as might other people) in the coming few years. Sadly there don?t seem to be so many dances in the calendar during May, locally.
the museum had some quite touching and informative displays from bygone days. The steam engine was build to power the rolling of steel plate for warships and i accidentally moved the camera in the gloom which gives an appearance of life to the steam hammer image.
ok, it's a long way from dancing but fred dibnah aficionados (had to check the spelling) will admire this:
