Hi David :-)

I had misread 14 and 15 for focal lengths ...

I now realise I was wrong :-)
Completely different: I heard the news about your Parliament being raided and feel so sorry for you our dear cousins. I hope the casualties will be limited to the current count ... fingers crossed for all of you.

Actually, Philippe, the problem is getting up there, to discover you've accidentally knocked the socket off the socket driver and it's fallen to the 
ground, where you both are unable to find it in the grass.
This results in using a Crescent or adjustable wrench, also known as a "knuckle duster" or "Mexican socket set". It makes for slow work and is hard on the 
fingers, in the cold.

Thanks, all, for taking the time to look & comment.

David.

The only problem is getting up there, and finding that you have a 14mm and need a 15mm and the guy on the ground helping you can't hear. ;-) 


get a file and/or an I-phone ;-)

Good Morning, Flexers!
I spent yesterday morning (at least,until it rained) installing a new, 
1.2 meter, extended Ku band antenna for our town's volunteer-run TV
system.
I got Fred to help me. Fred is a whiz at popping up a tower and doing 
some work.
We were on the ground, looking up at the old dish, when we decided to go up on the station's roof and have a better look. Before I could get the 
ladder set up (it was already leaning against the building) Fred had
climbed the tower to a height of about 20 feet.
Fred figures he's only good for 5 or 6 more years of doing this sort of 
thing.

Fred is 86.
