    Apparently the roof timbers were eventually utilised for something else when it was evident it was to never be lived in Sadly along with a lot the limestone blocks . The last owners emigrated to Canada . This place is across the valley from where Sarah delivered those trees to Caston Hall .

  4. I caught a flash of blue and writing just now and used rewind and pause to find this, we weren’t supposed to see it. A bit like when The Young Ones used to put a photo of, say, a tree frog in just one frame for viewers to rewind their videos. I think the 2 mins audio bubble might be the intro, but I don’t know.

    I once had to use a camcorder on a PC that flashed up a blue screen error message and then rebooted immediately. Freeze framed a video of the screen, and copied down a massively long file name that turned out to be a key part of Windows. Managed to boot the PC with a Linux "rescue CD", replaced the file and the problem cleared up.

  7. Our TV once popped up a picture of @Barry Haynes in his underpants, on a blue background.

    I still have flashbacks :(

  8. Makes sense, I reckon that Bumper 03 is the third ad break, and the 2 minute bubble is the gap that the live broadcast leaves for it.

  9. Could be. I actually knew a bloke at Sky who's job was to do exactly this (cross-fading, etc).
     
  10. Bizarrely that postcode on the last line is attributed to a SKY office just down the road from the Hounslow manshed , the renowned hang out of several members on here ...

    At a brass band concert. Later there was also a band on the floor playing, then the whole lot played together. :thumbsup:

    There was a lovely guest conductor with floppy hair who was quite flamboyant in a conductory way. Quite a contrast to the usual one from Chesterfield. :)

    I can always tell which days they're laying fibreglass as the smell of the resin down the road can be quite strong!

  20. Breaking ground. Always fun, in one bed alone have discovered at least two different bonfire sites with associated iron mongery, on top of the usual rocks and tree roots. Also have had the joy of mining through a lump of rotting corrugated iron. Five more beds of double digging to go and the rotavator IMG20250414110605.jpg is playing silly beggars.
