I didn't know what this meant,so i looked it up.Now i'm even more confused.
Where I'm from, "cabbaged" means hungover.
Hmm,pickled buttocks.Some kind of new rares commodity?This universe is soo dystopian. Still,best not probe too deeply,eh.

I bought a Python, and fitted it out as an armed trader. "Lumberjack" is now engineered appropriately for its purpose, and is a formidable little terror when interdicted by unwary pirates that have a desire to go after the biowaste that I seem to carry around a lot for the minor faction I am trying to promote! with 6A G3 dirty drives in it, it is quite skittish when docking, so I have to remember to reduce engine pips a lot!
So now, my "dodgy sneaky jobs and courier" CMIII and my "Big Jobs"* Python are in one quiet little Empire location, building rank towards the day I can get a Clipper, and I'm enjoying it. I've been doing Planetary Scan jobs in "Daffodil" my Cobra, which is highly satisfying too, and less scary than I originally anticipated.
* I should have named it "Mek Quake" perhaps..

Yes, can I also vote for the return of the many incarnations of Para Handy gif that always advertised a post of sense / usefulness when I saw it! I can't see this new one so well
(Yes, yes, I'm old and I do have glasses, ok..)I lasted for four days in Colonia's version of civilization. Which I think is a record in the last two years. But a bad case of itchy feet set in and as of this evening I'm now about a thousand light years out of Colonia. Heading back to that high-g murderous planet that almost did for me last week. I'll show it a thing or two!!!
Forfar 5, East Fife 4.
Dogger Bank;
West or northwest 5 or 6, decreasing 3 or 4.
Sea Moderate. Weather: Occasional rain then showers. Visibility: Moderate occasionally poor, becoming good.
There is no "Bank"
(Yes I do still listen to the R4 shipping forecast - so sue me.
)..........

Hope you don't mind me saying, but the message wasn't really worth the sustained effort. I hope you get it sorted soon, tho, it feels like my eyeballs are being mugged.

There is a bank - just not in shipping forecast terms
Could've sworn they always said "Dogger Bank". My memory...
Dogger Bank | Map, Depth, & Facts
Dogger Bank, extensive isolated shoal in the North Sea, lying about 60 miles (100 km) off the northeastern coast of England. It rises 70 feet (20 metres) higher than the surrounding seafloor, is 160 miles (260 km) long and 60 miles wide at the 120-foot (35-metre) level, and reaches its shallowest

I'm not sure this is helping new players anymore...
Every new player should know where North Utshire is, surely?I'm not sure this is helping new players anymore...
Hmm... perhaps we ought to get back OT?
I remember hearing all this, what station was this on?Hmm... perhaps we ought to get back OT?
I'm thinking, why was my grandmother listening to the shipping forecast?
BBC Light Programme (longwave)I remember hearing all this, what station was this on?
I'm thinking, why was my grandmother listening to the shipping forecast?
which became Radio 2, it moved to Radio 4 when that station nicked the longwave transmitters.
The shipping forecasts would be a good hint of what to expect weather wise for several miles inland.
Currently running station repair items to and around the Witch Head Nebula stations and considering unlocking and helping to rank up the new engineer out there, while wondering how long I can continue to keep my record of no hyperdictions while some players there seem to get them every second or third jump.

And it was on just before that religious program, The Top 40.
Currently faffing around searching for HGEs and doing high paid delivery missions if they appear. All this while psyching myself up to tackle a CZ for the first time.
