Its just at sunset and you'll need to be as west as possible to catch it. We'll get a few minutes in Ireland but I think central and eastern parts of the UK  will miss out altogether

Friend I cycle with suggested we head out for a small spin on Friday evening as we wouldn't be able to tomorrow morning with the yellow wind warning. He cycled from Trim to Navan and then we set off on a roundabout trip to back to Trim. I had the strength fitness class for cycling at 7.30 so the spin seemed like an ideal warm up. I began to feel it was a mistake as I approached the Knightsbrook Hotel as I wasn't feeling great. Hadn't even done 40kms and that at only a moderate pace.

Went to the class determined to complete but to take it easy as I did so. Come the end of the class and I was feeling distinctly queasy. Had to hurry my goodbyes and run to the loo

By the time class was over it was dark so Louise agreed to bring me back to navan in the car. Had to stop on 3 occasions on the approx 15km homeward trip. Bug or over- reaction to the exercise?

Im thinking the latter as when I got home discovered that my son is also sick !

There is a solar eclipse happening next Monday (8th April). Will spend the day travelling through Mexico, the US and the Atlantic. It will arrive in Ireland in the evening just as the sun sets (only a partial eclipse by the time it gets here) Western parts of Britain will be able to catch it for a couple of minutes just as the sun sets (providing its not covered by cloud of course)

Quote from: dom on April 01, 2024, 10:30:16 AMWhenever a spoiler is posted, just as Slim did there I get the error message "sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents".

I can't see how to get round this. Can anyone help?

Respond by quoting the message and you'll see the spoiler message as well. Just don't post it...

Great that works! Thanks

Does that mean its more than just a dislike but more a warning that site rules are being breached?

I'm a little uncomfortable with someone losing access because someone else doesn't like it.

For example, there are many posts in the Politics threads that I don't like. I'm sure my posts there aren't universally popular either 🙄) I imagine before too long anyone who posts in politics will find themselves suspended.

Likewise if someone mocks Arsenal or France, say, (believe me, it does happen)then I won't particularly like that either. It doesn't mean I want to see my dislike put them on the road to suspension.
