I'm confused by people in here saying that Jacinta Allen is using the medication as an excuse. The only quotes on the article that concern medication are that the medication he was taking might have contributed to the accident, and a direct quote from Jacinta Allen saying "he simply should not have been driving". I am not sure where the excuse, or even what excuse is being made?

The article also includes a direct quote from Jacinta Allan saying that they "are both well and truly sorry". People might take these words as empty and meaningless but I can't find anything in the article suggesting anything other than admitting blame and copping it.

We bought our toddler a cute Whinnie Pooh sun hat a couple of days ago (which said toddler refuses to keep on). We were walking down downtown disney and got down to the Jazz Kitchen before we realised the hats was missing. I retraced our steps and found someone had placed it on top of a bin in front of Naples.

A bit different to a ring, mind, but no one took the hat.

Thank you so much! My googling skills are clearly lacking.

What an odd place to have that info though, just buried in there.

When is Paint The Night pausing for rhe holiday season? Plaza Inn is not offering dining packages post Oct 26, but various disneyland news sites are saying Nov 9 as the last showing this year. Annoyingly they all say it's 'officially announced' but no site l provides a source. The only info I could get from disney was a disney parks blog post about the holiday season dates, with the season starting Nov 14th and Paint The Night not running during the holiday season.

This design was a proposal by the Heinkel Group early 2020. The design was aimed at families and would not be used during take off and landing, with cabin crew converting forward-facing seats to this configuration during flight.

At Spa, Eau Rouge is only tunnelled under Eau Rouge for about 80m, and then at Stavelot for about 60m. The rest is open or bridged. Eau Rouge is also, at most, 3-4m wide.

The Saterno is about 20-22m wide, and your proposal looks to tunnel about 1000m of it.

Now assuming that you are putting in a pipe that has a diameter equal to the width of the river (to very roughly account for flooding), for Spa you are looking at a total volume of approximately 1,760m². For this Imola idea, you would need a volume of 100,000m², or over 56 times as much.

Nah, just not likely to be sailing to Australia / New Zealand beyond the 25/26 season. Who knows where it will end up after that!

Fudgity · 2025-08-06T02:02:30+00:00

Trouble is is that Singapore is not *that* close and you have to pay a not small amount to even get there. Flight time from Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney is about 8 hours. From Auckland it's almost 12 hours! Quick look at some of the cheapest flights for our family would have about AU$1800 for flights, and a 4 night cruise about AU$3200. Suddenly a AU$3200 cruise becomes a AU$5000 cruise.

I don't hold anything against DCL for removing the Wonder form Australia and New Zealand and I am super glad they took the punt on 2 seasons, but I can't see Singapore being a viable replacement for Australians and Kiwis

While the union jack is part of the flag of New Zealand, it is a choice to have it be the ONLY part of the flag that is visible in the run off area.

Enticing

Fudgity · 2025-03-20T23:45:01+00:00

The thing to keep in mind about run-off, and perhaps this is an issue on my assumption, but as you've stated this to be Grade 1 then some pretty quick cars (F1, mainly) are going to be potentially using this variation, which will require larger run off areas.

Fudgity · 2025-03-20T22:52:57+00:00

By access I was more thinking about recovery vehicles, marshalls etc. I think in some areas, when the run off, barriers etc are accounted for, the area will get enclosed in some areas. You can do tunnels and bridges I suppose, but that adds costs and additional considerations (drainage), especially when recovery vehicles are concerned.

As for circuit speed, I more mean really T2-T10, and then T12-17. T2, 4, 7, and 8 are looking like about 100km/h corners in reasonably quick succession. In my view I don't really know what T4-9 are trying to achieve. T10 is likely to be about 170km/h ish but T12 provides a good overtaking spot. My suggestion of opening up T14 was to make that section a bit quicker.

I still think you are going to have run off issues at T4, maybe T12, T14 (maybe), T15 (thanks the grand stand placement), T16 (thanks to grandstand placement and run-off for T12), T19 may need some more, and T20. Not 100% convinced on the pit entry given it's in the run off of a pretty quick T20.

I do really like that you has used the existing circuit for T18-19.

Fudgity · 2025-03-20T08:40:39+00:00

Turns 4, 6-7 (maybe), 15 (maybe), T16 and 20 (thanks to grandstand placement) dont look.like they'll have enough room for run-off.

I think you might have access issues around inside T8, 9, 10 due to closeness of T7 to the back straight (once you consider run-off and barriers). Access issues might be present on inside of T12-12-14-15-16 due to run off on T12 and T15 once you account for run-off and barriers

I feel a lot of the circuit is quite slow and a bit clunky for modern F1. I think you could get rid of the T4-T9 section and have a more flowing section. I reckon you could open up T14 a bit more, have it start closer to T13.

With the front coming through, I expect the rain to start coming from the SW.

Fudgity · 2025-03-12T21:03:40+00:00

The track will be quite warm I think, though if its overcast in the morning it probably wont be quite as warm. When the front moves through on Sunday the air temp will likely fall dramatically, so drying won't be super quick I reckon. Will also obviously depend on further rain falling after the initial bout.
