Winner of the last thread starts the new one with a post of these rules. 2. Chooses a future event which triggers the winner, e.g. post number, date-time, and records it privately somehow (yellow sticky, etc.) 3. Everyone has fun posting until the target event is reached. 4. When the target is reached, old winner posts declaration of new winner and also PMs them. 5. Shortly after this a Mod will lock the recently won thread. (My preference is for the winner to ask the mods to lock the old thread after the new one is started.) 6. No double posts. Violators buy drinks or a meal for the house in Rocky's. 7. Additional rule retained from the last round - No posts that APPEAR to be blank - these will be ignored or deleted. (Sig lines do not count as part of a post). And may the lucky poster win. ;-) ID: 2075644 ·

The shed's solar heating system is working well with the whole place now at 25C, but step outside and it's 13C while the effects of the stiff breeze making it feels like 9C and only 16C is expected. An antarctic blast is expected to begin tomorrow with negative temps and frosts for at least the next 5 days with afternoon temps in the low teens. Cheers. ID: 2075758 ·
