A communication mixup landed this compact-car-sized boulder in the jaw crusher. Rather, trapped in the chute above the jaw crusher. My boss and the blasting supervisor prepare harnesses so they can mark where holes should be drilled. We put 9 holes in it, then blasted the boulder to bits. All the big bwana's (bosses) were there to see this cockup. The General Manager was not impressed.

A blatant technical cockup (changed aperture without realising, and totally blew exposure) but I liked the pose, so I played a 'high key' gamble and converted to a light B&W to 'cover my mistake'.
So yeah, this is *exactly* how I meant it to turn out

Another signage cockup from the local council. I can understand replacing old backlight signs but these are both similar!! Theres probably a height requirement that the first sign failed. Any other guesses?

The Council have been told about this many times, and recently when they re-modelled the junction they failed to put it right despite repeated objections before and during the work. Many attempts have been made to get Council Officers out to see this repeated cockup for themselves, but to no avail - only the Bishopston Councillors take notice, but are ignored.

My third day in the Lake District had been planned as a long walk from Honister up to Great Gable and a number of its surrounding peaks. The atrocious weather made me think twice and I chose an easier walk over safer ground in the Northern Fells, a circular walk peaking at Great Sca Fell. The first peak on the route was (and I'm really not kidding here) Great Cockup. You pass Little Cockup on the way, and Cockup itself is close by. The wind and rain up here was something else. I was stood on the straps of my 65/85 Litre backpack to stop it blowing away. The waterproof cover had been blown off and was attached solely by one piece of elastic and was now functioning as a parachute... I gave up on it and shoved it back into it's little compartment in the bag.
This is the view from the real summit of Great Cockup towards a cairn that my newly acquired GPS toy had recently told me wasn't the real summit at all. The peaks just to the left of the cairn is Little Cockup and the one on the right is Binsey.

Well I’ve been a bit slack of late with updates IRT to build, with what NZ Election, AB’s back on the giggle box and a few cockups with the Ark.
It was going to plan with this, but main mast fell apart while I was painting it and trying to reassemble the mast was a pain in the ass.
Anyway it’s finally fixed with today I’ve put the decals on which went ok, until I review the pictures I took today and I realised the markings for port catapult are not straight. Oh well, how sad never mind.
Tomorrow will be some rigging and fitting of the hockey sticks.
