Really, Njee…? I had no idea.

All those rides with wasted opportunities for character impressions…

Fire alarm design is probably the thing I know most about, but its my job to know.

I got 3 pointless answers in the Pointless final round the other day. Was ever so pleased with myself 🙂

The dialectic properties of harsh environment textiles and the incorporation of TIS functionality

Beats stoner in the dullness war at parties, yey me!

Easy

If you want to grow grass 😀

Doom.

This, and Quake.

The Renault 19 ’89-’96 (particularly the 16V model). Show me any single part off one and I’ll be able to tell you exactly what it is, where it’s from and whether there were any other variants 😳

Useful, I know.

Sand control in deep water horizontals.

land rover (sI/II/III and 90//110) variants

Staggeringly useful at work I can tell you.

I don’t get out much…

I recently attended a course in marine archeology. During the course, various slides were shown with the question “anyone know what this is?”
I surprised myself (and the people I was with) with an ability to identify military shipwrecks eg HMS Royal Oak from a sonar side scan, HMS M1 from a surface photo and X-Craft from the remains on a beach.
People regularly talk to me in depth about steam trains. I am not an expert but do tend to nod knowingly so they keep talking. If half of what I’ve been told had sunk in, I’d be expert.
Digital diagnostic imaging – pretty sh*t hot there if I do say so myself.
EDIT – and Start Trek The Original Series, not something i would admit without the veil of anonymity kindly provided by t’internet

But the season is short so most of the time i just fall back on my significant prevarication skills………

Chairs. I’m a chair geek. I think they appeal to my inner sitter-down.

Spaceships (real ones – none of this Star-trek stuff)
know a thing or two about rockets too

Piston engined aircraft before 1945.
I could (OK have) bored for England on that subject

oh and, having owned several Italian motorcycles, I’m now fairly proficient in
12V motorcycle electrics

oh, and Bowie. 😀

A few years ago it would have been british motorbikes from 1955 – 1980-ish.

I also used to know a bit about screw threads and engineeringy type things.

I’m old, so I can’t remember anything about anything these days!

As a ‘doing’ rather than ‘knowing’ thing: I’m oft complemented on my van packing abilities. Got a contract at the moment to tour an exhibition that has over 200 delicate components. I can get it into a swb transit – packed to the roof with barely cubic inch to spare. But it’ll only go in if I pack it, when I subcontract the job I have to give the subcontractee a 14ft luton.

Did you play a lot of Tetris as a kid?

Work wise, I know far too much about how Symantec product licensing works.

Outside work, nothing of any use, I just tend to retain information, so I guess general knowledge!

Mountainbike tracks and trails of Morzine and district- I have regular requests for.
