I’ve been looking for that for ages! Where is it from?

Interesting to think that South Devon rivers were tributaries of the Rhine.
The world looks so different after learning science. For example, trees are made of air, primarily. When they are burned, they go back to air, and in their flaming heat is released the flaming heat of the Sun which was bound in to convert air into tree.

It's mad, isn't it?
I was wondering what all those areas of Wales out past Cardigan Bay would look like. Fascinating.

I got the pic from here :

but I think the source is National Geographic.

Me too. We did one of our walks along the cliffs behind Noss Mayo yesterday, which according to the map was over a hundred miles from the sea. What would we have seen on what would presumably have been rolling plains?

The baffles were originally routed for the Coles supertweeters, but got took off to try out on something else. I filled the holes with bits of cardboard mailing tube. Here they are being put back in again.

Nicer looking port in the back. It's a bit longerer and narrower than the mailing tubes so bass should be a mite better. No tuning involved just a case of suck it and see.
