on a lighter note...

In Moscow, there was a transition to electric buses. They are cleaner than buses, although the power reserve is significantly less. Trolleybuses, which were also replaced, greatly spoiled the view with wires and poles. Everything would be fine, but in the cold season (which is 6 months), heating of the passenger compartment and the driver's cab is necessary. for example, recently during the week there was a temperature of -25 degrees.Celsius.
It wasn't a problem before: The internal combustion engine emits a lot of heat, and trolleybuses were supplied with a sufficient amount of electricity by wires. But we had to put autonomous furnaces on electric buses, which now use diesel fuel. It's quite expensive and not too eco-friendly (and it smells). And now the idea is being worked out to use used fryer oil from a fast food chain (an analogue of McDonald's).
Not to say that these are all big problems, but it's funny.

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts

Hi PaulB,
I have a Ballard Arms Model 1885 chambered for .333 Jeffery Flanged. Do you have any idea where I can get ammo for this?

I am new to this forum so I am sorry if I am doing something wrong!
Thank You!
