David does confirm. It is roshambo or rock-paper-scissors as it's commonly known.


Avalanche and the others are not types of move (of which there are by three) but the gambits used in pre-determined play. Eg avalanche is rock-rock-rock.


For more info on the fascinating world of R-P-S and to enter the world championships(!) google it.


Now... back to sports with balls and sticks if we must....

Ah Microbite - golf is my game. James started the first golf club in England, Royal Blackheath, where I had my wedding reception, I forgot at first that Mary Q of Scots was before him.


My question:


Who famously won a house for achieving a hole in one at the World Matchplay Championship at Wentworth (1970s or 1980s)

      Wanted - Vintage Hifi Valve / Tube Amplifiers

      By whimsical_objects · Posted

      Hello - If anybody has any hifi valve amplifiers, working or in need of restoration, I'm keen to buy such things from you! I particularly like amps from the 50s and 60s, the sort of thing you used to find in old sideboards, but ultimately anything with glass tubes sticking out of them is of interest to me. I am also in the market for good quality hifi items in general, particularly faulty items in need of fixing and restoration. This includes turntables, amplifiers, cd players, speakers, graphic EQs, cassette players, reel to reel players, etc. etc. Ultimately, all electronic musical objects are of intrigue to me. Many thanks, and hope to hear from you soon, -Scott 07956 853 538

      Tree Killer – Seeking Advice on Dealing with Toxic Neighbours

      By vladi · Posted

      Using the smart CCTV cameras is your best strategy - particularly if they have adequate infra-red capability. Setting them to be triggered by line crossing or areas of intrusion is worthwhile setting up as is linking them to a PIR sensor. The PIR could also be used to activate a sounder but that might upset your other neighbours. I have a few cameras around our property and I enjoy reviewing the recordings and apart from foxes and birds, I catch the occasional opportunistic thief on camera - like this one last Tuesday. If you need any help, please drop me a PM. S7.mp4

      Not in Ed, but I was in NE England over the weekend and saw an otter in the wild! Never seen one before, it was quite lovely.

      Well unless the heron got them later, there were the  two cootlets. I think some others of this year's babies must have escaped the heron. Many years ago (and possibly still, though I never see them any more) there was a whole heron family on the island  - mum, dad and youngster. I don't know how long herons live. Maybe this one is the grown up youngster.
