Made a bit more space in the garage. Took the woodburner out. It hasnt been used since I lined the garage out with celotex. It gets far too warm to work.
Id picked up a 3kw fan heater for not a lot and it more than does the job
Put the woodburner on marketface and it had sold in ten minutes...
I bet the local refuse centre will treat them as commercials and make you apply for a permit telling them what you intend to take there before you even know yourself :doh:
They can be the bane of your life when owned by a pathetic, attention seeking old man. The last red button pressing episode here was caused by him having indigestion, caused by having a rice pudding before bed which he has been told not to do because he’s up all night with indigestion.
I dont...
Can’t remember whether Id posted them. Had the orange one for seven years and got bored of looking at it, so sold it at the right time for a massive profit.
Made an 800 mile round trip to buy the white one. Havent done a lot with it except polishing it. Hopefully with the garage and drive...
The maker usually marks the focal ratio on them somewhere with a pencil or chinagraph marker. Also if the are commercially made a grade may be marked on them which determines the accuracy of the parabolic surface. If not you would have to measure the focal length optically. A longer focal length...
My freelander has been playing up with the cold weather, very sluggish to start with all the interior lights dimming, then running rough for a few seconds.
I was thinking of just biting the bullet and buying a new battery, but a local battery supplier were offering a free battery test, free...
To be fair I’d keep my eye out for an original if theres no rush, like the RS500 cosworth sierra I built 40 years ago that my nan trashed while dusting the house
If you keep your eye on auction house websites such as rydale, I bet one will come along thats been collected and never built, trouble is it becomes a full time job searching auction house websites
Can’t believe how much difference there is in the comfort of the bathroom from fitting a £9 part. Its actually warm in there even if the wind is howling outside
Lads came today. Family firm dad and his lad. Grafted for a good couple of hours.
Ridge tile off so they could get at it properly.
Ive had the pot and gas cowl taken off so they could seal the flue as we wont use it.
Theyve re mortared the crown, replaced 3 broken tiles, fettled a bit of the...
I had thought of that. May have another do at knocking some money off from them before end of contract . Its just hard to not put the phone down on them as they are programmed to upsell instead of reducing your costs
Finally managed to get a sensible pair of lads round. One went up for a look and the crown mortar is coming off in lumps. 2 cracked tiles to replace and they are going to take our pot off and cap the flue. We certainly arent going to be putting it back in use .
They are also going to repoint the...
Yeah and only have the phone line cause it was cheaper with than without. We did have a tv package a while ago but that kept going up. Got a smart telly with allsorts of tv apps on it
