Sun dial

You made a habit of that.

That I can not lie.

Right back on track.

Years ago, back in the 1980's.
Jankers again.

I was helping set up a Sundial in Portsmouth.

The Officer in charge had a document of the direction the indicator had to point and the angle off it, so it would be accurate.

Is there an on-line version and what is it called.

Should find what you need there with a bit of poking around.

I enjoyed mushrooms tonight, but bought ones - I'd not eat anything I picked.....



The weather, met up with @Migmac today as he was in the vicinity on business - top bloke and as always, good to have a face to a username. Had a good blether and set the world to rights, and thanks to Al for the coffee & cake And he was wearing shorts, but no pics of that .

For the sunshine, I'll see if I can grab a still off the dashcam tomorrow. No pics of mushrooms since we all know what they look like.

Proof!

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

Proof!

Of legs yes.

 

[slim_boy_fat]

Of legs yes.

But, sun reddened ones.

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

But, sun reddened ones.

Or welders legs. Welding in shorts.

Behind his back?

Behind his back?

The knees are on the front though It's part of a two stage spray tan, they do them red the first few days so it looks more realistic.

....Yeah, about that sundial.
Great work and thanks for sharing.

 

[Migmac]

Nice sundial, sorry about my knees

Pictures, taken by a reliable whiteness.
Or didn't happen

Oh, ye of little faith. Just to prove yesterday wasn't a fluke, here's a pic from the front door this morning - dashcam still from yesterday yet to be extracted....

Just cropped to remove unsightly telegraph poles and a bit of the garden.

I’m sorry I wouldn’t know.
I just liked the look of the angle that it was pointing and welded it up there

If you like it, so be it.

That's the joy of doing stuff like that.

I remembered..... And just for @The_Yellow_Ardvark , today's been the same - although it's clouded over as of 6 o'clock[ish].

Note to self: correct time stamp in camera settings.

Time stamp is wrong. What else?

 

[slim_boy_fat]

Just that, as far as I can see. I seldom remove the card as the files are automatically overwritten when it's full - it's a 32GB card so holds quite a lot of footage.
