The Bear

The Artemis program timeline is highly ambitious and is very likely to be pushed back. The proposed landers haven't even been built or tested yet and won't until next year. I doubt the Chinese will be too worried as their moon mission is supposed to be technically simpler to achieve.

Define best. Most popular, probably not. Best songs, not for me though they have done some belters. The best musically, not for me compared to Blur but then again I'm an Indie kid through and through.

What a superb mission. I think it's safe to say the Orion performed superbly. Here's looking forward to Artemis 3 and 4.

Don't apologise. We are down already and it'd be hilarious to see Spurs go down with us.

I just don't see how it makes any difference to their actual score either way. Might speed up play for once too.

It still amazes me that they don't allow buggies if players/caddies want to use them.

I think they said he was less than 40% FIR yesterday. 40% is my percentage off the tee! Though to be fair my 3W doesn't go 300 yards like his driver

I used to know someone who always gave any opinion by starting every sentence with.... "I'm not being funny but...." Used to drive me mad.

That second one really annoys me too.

Thought I'd check Whetstone out online, but why not have any prices or booking ability for visitors on the website?

Going round with fewer clubs is good for your game as it makes you think about how to play different shots.

I got a Ping 7 wood last year. It's a great club both off the deck and off the tee that replaces the 5 iron for me. So easy to hit and very consistently straight. I bought a 5 Wood to match and am also thinking of ditching the 6 iron for a 9 wood too now.

This is an interesting development in data transfer around the globe. https://www.ecoticias.com/en/china-has-just-achieved-an-extraordinary-feat-a-laser-with-a-power-output-of-just-2-watts-has-transmitted-data-at-a-speed-of-1-gigabit-per-second-from-a-distance-of-36705-kilometers-to-earth/30187/ A low powered 2 watt laser beam that can deliver 1Gbps data from satellites in orbit.

I also only hit 3 wood off the tee. Really don't like the driver.

Good time to create a large compost bin. Luckily the end of my garden looks over the river Trent with an embankment down to a path along the river it so I can just chuck stuff over the fence onto the bank. Also stops people potentially climbing up it.

Some amazing pictures of the lunar fly-by here on the official NASA gallery. https://www.nasa.gov/gallery/lunar-flyby/

Could just be a cheap mower with a small grass collecting box.

Yeah I stuck a few more quid in over the last month or so. Have now this morning shifted some back from physical gold to the S&P again.

All hail Donny T and his negotiating skillz! I hope someone tells him that credit isn't due if he started the war himself.

Is Fatawu good enough for the PL? Not seen him play much so I wouldn't know really.

Rory's first two rounds on Thu/Fri are at 15:31 and 18:44 BST. Good times for those coming home from work.

The problem with launching a nuke is that the bomb likely has to travel over either Russian or Chinese air-space. Which is extremely problematic and provocative in itself unless all countries are pre-warned about such a strike.

A playoff between Rose and Fleetwood would be just perfect viewing. With Scottie the one to just miss out.

Didn't realise that you and the other members of the Artemis crew were given so much freedom up there! But seriously, congrats.
