What's on your mind?
Akquarius: too late. Sept 30, 2024 19:45:12 GMT
leoroberts: :) Our annual get-together in Yorkshire, Larry. See the threads under HB17/Plucky Duck/Members area, etc. Oct 6, 2024 21:59:26 GMT
minorkey: What does the HB stand for? Oct 8, 2024 17:45:09 GMT
jangarrack: I believe it's something to do with the lead in your pencil. Oct 8, 2024 18:58:04 GMT
Akquarius: originally Hebden Bridge. that'S where it started. Oct 8, 2024 19:09:28 GMT
Akquarius: in September 2009. Oct 8, 2024 19:15:01 GMT
ocarolan: Bernd, the first one was actually 2010 .It them became Halifax Bash and now Huddersfield Bash. Any further moves, if this should ever become necessary, will thus need to be to a place beginning with H. :D Oct 8, 2024 20:44:40 GMT
doc: How about Honolulu? Oct 8, 2024 23:47:40 GMT
ocarolan: Is that in Yorkshire? Oct 9, 2024 7:38:41 GMT
doc: Well no, but you can fly from Leeds. I’d miss interacting with the Huddersfield locals. Anyway Hawaii is all beaches and no knickers. Oct 9, 2024 11:20:38 GMT *
Wild Violet: Haworth or Holmfirth could be worthy contenders, though the current location (or the now remodeled Imperial Crown in Halifax) seems to be ideal for our group Oct 10, 2024 2:28:23 GMT
Akquarius: , Keith, of course, you're right. Which means that my first HB was in 2011, not 2010. Blimey, I had it all wrong for many many years :D Oct 10, 2024 7:57:42 GMT
Akquarius: btw, don't Yorkshire people pronounce many words with an "H" in the beginning although there is none? That would give us a load of options :D Oct 10, 2024 8:00:10 GMT
scorpiodog: Dunno about Yorkshire, but in 'ertford, 'ereford and 'ampshire 'urricanes 'ardly 'appen. Oct 10, 2024 10:12:06 GMT
Wild Violet: (rofl) (rofl) (rofl) Oct 10, 2024 15:49:17 GMT
newdave: Voyager 1 is the farthest human made object from earth. It travels at approx 10.6 miles/second. Proxima Centauri, the closest star to Earth, is 4.6 light years away. Voyager 1 will take 73,000 years to reach it. Oct 13, 2024 11:22:44 GMT *
newdave: Andromeda is the nearest galaxy to our own Milky Way. it is more than 2.25 million light years away. If you are thinking about going there then I suggest you charge your phone and take a packed lunch with an extra apple. Oct 13, 2024 11:24:37 GMT *
minorkey: Andromeda is the furthest object visible to the naked eye Oct 15, 2024 12:08:16 GMT
newdave: My mistake. Nearest galaxy to earth is Ursa Major III. Still a bit of a trek though. Oct 15, 2024 13:26:35 GMT
otis1960: Bearly worth the bother then Oct 15, 2024 22:19:12 GMT
