Is it PANTO season ? ? ? Oh no it isn't

Bloody work ! ! What a PAIN ! We need to come up with a plan that makes the younger ones that won't work . .. . . Go out to work and pay for US older ones that HAVE worked and paid into the system ! ! ! ! There ! ! That'll stir things up a bit. Jim

Dyslexic keyboard ! I have one of those too ! !

Nice one Steve

If they restrict them it would be software so someone would soon get around it and post that info on the internet. My old drone was restricted to 400 feet but had an option to turn it off. My new drone is restricted to 400 feet but there are ways to turn that off. ( which I have not done ) If I had a job that needed it I would do it but then I need to apply for special clearance ( NOTAM ) on the required date, time & position. The people these new rules are aiming at are the " first timers " or The " don't give a .... " ers ! They don't need to be very high to kill someone. I was reading a post last week where a drone hit someone in the face and created a new mouth for him. Straight through his cheek. If a drone hit a windscreen of a car it could cause the driver to swerve and cause an accident. etc. etc. etc. It'll probably just be a simple box ticking and bum covering exercise then you hand over the money and off you go with your shiney new drone.

We'll have to wait and see. In theory it makes good sense. Let's see how it works out. The man in the interview could be misleading by implying that the smaller drones are not a danger to aircraft. The trouble with bringing this in will be that people who operate outside of the law will carry on doing just that ! It should help to stop complete novices being a danger though if they have to have some sort of training. They also need to clamp down on people operating commercially illegally. No insurance. No come back. I think that the liability extends to the hirer as well as the illegal operator so they had better beware that one ! Interesting. . . . . . Jim

Welcome to the Club Mike. Good to see a wife that enjoys boating and fishing as well. Jim

Money no object ! ! I did the same on my old boat. Not much point on the Tiddler ! She don't get out very often !

Indeed.

Hi Matt, They say that time is a great healer. It's true. As time goes by the pain will become less and the happy memories will become more frequent. Jim

I created this in case it's of use to anyone. Just have to print it off and specify the required dimensions. Then take or send to someone for manufacture. Jim Bow Roller.pdf

Have you sorted your roller Adam ? Jim

Martin has returned the engraver. Anyone else need to borrow it ? Or the number and letter stamps?
