That’s so true. Well before the 20s is up I’m already making edits to the code to preempt the imminent runtime error then recompile and continue the cycle…

Wow, that’s sad. Yes we are, they really layer on the stuff here, at places where the lorry has to pass multiple times (e.g. a roundabout) you can even get ‘salt dune’ deposits from it building up. Wrecks the drivetrain on my bicycle - inevitably have to replace components once winter is over.

Fantastic, may bring a tape measure on the next commute

Very good points!

Hadn’t considered that, grit lorries must fling a lot at the base with each pass.

Agreed. So quality of British manufacturing and workmanship. Now someone has to pay to have them all replaced.

Yes, all weakened and then blown over in a recent storm. Corrosion from sea-salt in the air maybe? There are tens of them about, which does not seem normal

I expect that I 1. underestimate the forces of nature and 2. overestimate the quality of British manufacturing

Figure the idea of the name is a network for air/flight transit

Military comms. Sounds like a more evocative use of the word compared to a courier service!

Now, you gotta promise me you’re not gonna kill anyone, right?

One is overeating the other starving?
