Brilliantly thought out

Thanks
It's only taken me ten years to figure it out .....

To be fair, though, ten years ago, there weren't the miniature linear servos, the mini Seeeduino boards or the miniature receives linked to key fob transmitters that we now have. Without them, I was having to find waterproof ways of being able to plug each signal into a central loom.

I've now produced plugs to fill the sockets when not in use, to try and prevent the sockets filling up with detritus.


Talking of detritus - I only spotted the bird poo when I downloaded the photos from my camera. I'm not sure why pigeons especially seem to like using the track as a latrine.....

Could that have been Rat or Hedgehog poo? Pigeon tends to have some white in it.

Might well be. Not sure how to tell the difference - please don't tell me the easiest way is by taste .....

Pigeon poo tends to fall from high, you don't tend to get hedgehog poo on the shoulder of your best jacket

You do if you have fallen in the grass on the way home
