I was looking for something to do with cats, boatbuilder, I tried looking on the Google news as well as the BBC but got nowhere. Having watched the video I'll never moan about our weather again. Well, not until tomorrow at least. :lol:

Two pictures of a well known singer as a child.

Without using the internet, :nono: can you guess who it is?

Clue: One of her well-known songs referred to someone called 'Bobby'.

The obvious guess would be Susan Maughn and 'Bobby's Girl' but the photo doesn't look a bit like her. :think:

I thought that might be the first guess Dave, and your right - it's not her. :D

I thought of 'Ode to Billie Joe' by Bobby Gentry but that's the wrong way round. :D

Who needs Google when you've got SWMBO :lol:, 'Me and Bobby McGee' by Janis Joplin. Sheila was wide awake this morning and got it first time, if only she was as good at the Lottery. :D

I didn't know you had married Googie Withers, Dave. (Remember 'Within These Walls'?) I hope you're not kept locked up. :lol:

Yes, that's the right one. Send my congratulations to Sheila.

Something a little different.

This image is from a screenshot of the 3D cockpit view of a flight which originated somewhere in the British Isles traveling to Amsterdam, as seen on the ’Flightradar24’ app.
Can you work out roughly the area shown in the picture?

:roll: Are there no 'educated guesses' for this? If not, I will give the answer later tonight. It's not that difficult.

As you say it's not that difficult, boatbuilder, I'm guessing it's something to do with Lowestoft. I'll have a stab at Oulton Broad, but as I'm not a Lowestoft lad I'm probably wrong. :D

No not there Dave. A much wider area is covered that what is commanded by OB & Lowestoft. Remember, it's looking from the cockpit on a journey to Amsterdam, probably from about 30,000ft. I estimate that it is about 40 miles or so from the left edge of the image to the right edge at about halfway up the picture.

Here is the answer to the above. The flight was Dublin to Amsterdam on the approach to the English coast.
