To celebrate our hero engineer, we're letting all Isambards visit Brunel's SS Great Britain for free from today onwards.



I am sure that they are both appropriately grateful.  :lol:

Terriffica ad.  Norwegian sailor promotes the charms of his country only to realize he's in Quebec's North Shore :P
Might be of interest to Norgy, he'll tell us if it's realistic :P

If he played Geoguessr, he would've immediately known he was on American continent after seeing a yellow dividing line on the road.

God bless the Easter Bunny for dying for our sins.

So good Friday is when Jesus died trying to overthrow the king of heaven  and then easter Sunday is when he hatched from a stone egg on a mountain top right?

I thought that Good Friday was the day Jesus arrived at the foot of Mount Doom, and Easter Sunday was the day he threw in the ring.

Isn't there something about if Jesus sees his own shadow there'll be seven days of Lent before Christmas?

[MAGA]Good Friday is when Jesus chased the woke liberals from the Temple. Easter Sunday is when he returned to deport refugees to an Egyptian prison [/MAGA]

I'm increasingly having trouble reading things on a computer screen. The optician says my eyes are fine.
Has anyone ever ran into something called "Computer glasses"?
Apparently its a thing that exists. Wonder if its worthwhile and doesn't just do the same as turning on the night filter
