I sent the OP some prime pictures taken by the Foxcam in our back garden. I have just been to ask Foxcam how it feels about images it has taken being available without remuneration.
It did not deign to respond.

Re: 20mph zone proposed for 'Thorpes' area of Sydenham
If we leave aside Bishopsthorpe for a moment, and assume that speeds are now reduced on Queensthorpe, we find that 'the problem' is people driving an average of 22mph on Earlsthorpe and Dukesthorpe. Is it right to criminalise these people driving 2mph faster than the proposed speed limit? I think s...

Re: Freeview reception problems last night?
Changed channel allocation on Freeview does not affect the quality of a received channel. Was it raining at the time? I find bad weather can have a negative effect on the signal strength for some channels.

Re: Two tone lifts
Tim, lifts that go ping are out, speaking ones are in. I guess that means that lifts in local authority buildings will have to make the announcement in seventeen different languages, including Urdu and Punjabi. It would at least encourage people in a hurry to use the stairs :twisted: Regards Chris

Re: Two tone lifts
Would this work if you only heard one ping? What would your context be for knowing it was higher or lower? No, what you need is three notes, either rising or falling. That was what occurred to me as I read Tim's suggestion. I thought of a two note sequence but your triple would be much better! Rega...

Sydenham definitely has fibre-to-cabinet broadband now, because I was switched to BT Infinity an hour ago. Up and download are now about twenty times faster than before. Happy Bunny!

Thanks for posting the Anne Anderson illustration. It really took me back to the pictures in the books I used to read at my grandparents house an awfully long time ago!

Re: Can anyone format a text for Kindle?
I think all Kindles can use the mobi format. The following link allows free online conversion of text to mobi:

I have not tried it myself. My Kindle 3 can also read PDFs.

Newlands Park excitement
At about 07:45 today there was a smell of burning, and by 08:15 there were three enormous ambulances and some police cars congregating at the Homecroft Road junction. They stopped our younger daughter getting her car out for work; something she seemed not unhappy about ;-) About midday I had a discr...
