Have you been over the Barton swing bridge recently?

No @Archev!

I'm sure he means 'Swing'

I believe the grammar employed by @OriginalBigAl to be correct.

Perhaps the Pedant Master Himself @siteguru could confirm.....


Only we could say he 'Swung' over the bridge.......


Oh wait a minute ?

The Barton road "swing" bridge is situated on an island in the Manchester Ship Canal and balances and pivots on a central spigot presumably held on by a large nut . If MEH had driven over this structure and happened to be carrying a consignment of fridge magnets then there's your explanation. Once the nut is released then the bridge might fail and so the past tense could be correctly applied. News travels slowly here, so I am unaware of the state of maintenance of the BRSB.

Yep missing that fastening could well have caused a swinger to have swung.
I’ll check my meccano set later in case the nut’s from there ?

Any idea where this belongs, found under the car this morning?View attachment 28553

It's the furry dice safety anchoring system. Do not drive the car. Proceed immediately to the nearest sofa and hide behind it. ?

I have been over there many times and also taken the long way round on many occasions when the fire service were cooling it down in hot weather so it could be closed

I bet @JimmyTwotimes is really glad he started this thread….

 

[siteguru]

Any relation to Jimmy 5 Bellies?

Also, the radio sensor to track my cat's radio tracker collar vanished. I had it when I replaced the battery in the collar, but then when I needed it to track the cat, it was gone. It can't have left the kitchen, it wasn't as if I'd been out searching with it, but it was nowhere to be found. I even fished the rubbish bags out of the bin and went through them, and found the torn rubber cover for the tracker unit I had discarded when I changed the battery, but no sensor unit.

Did you ask your cat where it had hidden it?

Looks like an 6 inch AF that big bugger !.
It would take three people just to carry the spanner ? to the job ?.

There's plenty of nuts on this thread all with a screw loose. I suggest we all check our nuts for tightness.

Were they driving through Southport?
It might belong to "that guy".
