My Dad had been involved in various small projects in the area. <br/><br/>I remember creating a gif of the Sun which had the triangles spinning around it - and seeing how purple the sky is in that photo, I&#39;m sure it had been taken on my Dad&#39;s Casio QV-100 digital camera.<br/> <img src="https://medias.meow.social/media_attachments/files/116/309/516/268/496/860/original/3086ee2453b39a93.png"> <br/> 2026-03-29T01:21:54+01:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsghae7s784u3e0mljf30n5yt5lpkt85jze7fv9fxw8drgffduznmszyzhu2e43r4xz64ssnccnred3rxe3cx8d5yrxh5euy7xg084dc5ydk4z69vy In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs92kj5066aw9fzkmnr4uyrd5rdul936kgtql6f4tmfn9guhhzsk5cr8j42j'>nevent1q…j42j</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>it&#39;s 1.7m from the middle of the shelf to the wall a the end of the bath.

All the bathrooms in the new place are pretty cozy, with the doors and sinks coming into conflict if one isn&#39;t careful, but there&#39;s plenty of space for storage and things with the doors closed again.<br/> <img src="https://medias.meow.social/media_attachments/files/113/103/933/910/762/720/original/749246c9056ea095.jpg"> <br/> 2024-09-08T23:03:52+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs95sxdxwetxkqnd7swxkrcyg4ex7ff69pdp8gymndm8p804ynhrpczyzhu2e43r4xz64ssnccnred3rxe3cx8d5yrxh5euy7xg084dc5ydk4gxk7e In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqszklp8gw6zad84u7uzqs5wtrgp5h4hxy0wafcnu9nu4z2gapygzzs63ylyz'>nevent1q…ylyz</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>ooh, was the format DICOM by any chance?

The next place seemed to suggest they were looking after the place and the person responsible was out at lunch but I could leave it with them to be posted normally... and by the time I found a third place it looked like there was no hope that DHL could, or would, deliver it in time - in a safe Tory seat with FPTP🙃<br/><br/>So, if Surrey Heath loses to the Tories by a single vote, I&#39;m sorry, but I really did try 😋 2024-07-04T11:37:17+02:00
