Box Sets, Mini series, films, etc.

*Yes, I know it's an odd thing to have a supply of but if you mix it with epoxy it makes a great coating for the bottom of a kayak especially if your local beach is stony.

Videos on YouTube of mixing it (from pencils) with superglue to make 'filler'.
Similar process / effect?

Yeah, sort of. I mix up the 2 part epoxy as normal then add the graphite powder and continue stirring. I don't think I've got the data from my test pieces any more when I was finding the best ration of epoxy to powder so this winter when I'll be recoating the kayak hull I'll have to do some more test pieces. Deep joy.

I use lots of different 'fillers' with epoxy, depending on the job, silica, micro balloons, silica/micro balloon mix (the silicar makes it smoother), sawdust, fibreglass powder. It's a pretty versatile substance, epoxy resin, basically a coating but with the right filler in the right ratio it's a fantastic glue - but not for plastics.

Did they see any graphite on the ground outside?

They can't have, because it's not there.

Chernobyl had graphite get out, there is a chilling Horizon documentary with people walking round the town with flashes on the film from radiation and commentary regarding people identifying core graphite after they’ve knelt down to look at it

You've not seen the HBO drama then?

Re graphite in epoxy...very common thing to do in Composites. All kinds of stuff gets added into epoxy resin when used in carbon fibre, including graphite.

Airbus A350 (and presumably other aircraft, but I didn't work on those ) has glass fibre fuel pipes with just enough carbon black added to make the epoxy the right electrical conductivity.

Not seen it yet, not sure when it's released*, but there's a new Babylon 5 film due. Woot!

They've got around the ageing cast problem by doing it as an animation voiced by many of the original cast.

Looks a bit timey-wimey/multi-universe etc.

Captain Phillips. Already seen it but my daughter chose it for all to watch. I'd forgotten what a great film it was and was surprised to find out the truth behind it!

The Tour de France documentary series on Netflix "Tour de France: Unchained" ... great if like me you are a fan but also has enough info for non fans.

[KungFooBob]

Avatar The Way of Water.

It's the 2nd Avatar film, now on Disney+

The plot is pretty basic, there's no twist, you've seen the same thing dozens of times....

but oh my god is it a beautiful feast for the eyes.

I liked the Aussie sea captain he was the most 'characterful' character in it... shame his arm fell off.

I saw it in the Cinema in some kind of mega wide format...can't remember what it was called, it had screens on the left and right walls of the Cinema too.

Got bored and pretty much clock watched it to the end

Plus that kid is infuriatingly dumb.

Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates

On Disney+

It has it's moments, but overall average at best.

I've decided that Aubrey Plaza is the future Mrs KFB. I just need to get rid of the current one and become very attractive to women.

[Mr. Dazzle]

I've been watching The Bear on Disney+.

Reet fancy chef comes back to Chicago to take over his dead brother's sandwich shop/restaurant. Failing business etc.

Its hard to say what it is really....it's certainly got a lot of shouting I quite like it but I'm not sure I can tell you why.

I'd fight KFB for Aubrey Plaza but he's a big lad

I'm watching Cherry Flavour on Netflix... i'm 5 episodes in and have absolutely no idea what's going on.

Turn the shit off then.

I don't watch any of the series anymore on Netflix or Amazon as they are either too random or just take so long to actually do anything. You might as well just watch the last 15 mins of each episode, i don't think you will miss much of most of the series on those channels tbh if you do so.

I was sorely disappointed by the Rings of Power series tbh, was really looking forward to it but tbh, it was a bit crap, hopefully series 2 will be better next year.

[gremlin]

Started on Designated Survivor, as it's been recommended.

Why is it that every time I look at Keifer Sutherland in it I find myself thinking of Sean Lock?

[KungFooBob]

Le Man's '66.

What a great film, made even better by Bale's brummie accent.

[Yorick]

Last night watched Big George Foreman.

Thoroughly enjoyed it
