That no matter how big a sticky toffee pudding is, it will still only be one portion. I don't fight it.

I got some 25mm kingspan and a roll of felt for lining camper vans going free, i used spray glue and made some inserts for a single glazed bay window,the room is warmer and there is less noise.
Available in any auto shop, Walmart, supermarket etc in North America. Opinion seems divided as to how good they work . . . I would think the sound of the engine, transmission, tyres etc would drown out anything created by some bits of plastic glued to your front bumper . . .

My union isn't striking today (that'll be next month) so a bonus sans-kids day at school has meant time for a good clear out of the back of the classrooms.
I'll be punting these on eBay (or perhaps here if anyone's interested) as they must be of interest to someone;
I'll take these apart and salvage just the electrics so I can make one set of four hanging sockets in the workshop;

Another one.
This one is MINE.
I am keeping this.
Plus a set of gobbling rods.

I've already had one note of interest!

I've always known them as eating irons.

Know them as all of those terms, as well as just having a " Racing spoon " ...
A spoon with several short tines cut in the top end so you can stab what you can't easily slurp and the lip you don't usually sup off sharpened to make a good cutting edge ... it saved the weight of two round of 7.6 or there abouts over the old style issued stainless steel KFS gobbling rods.

Nice score.
And thanks for the proper use of the correct word.

A long time friend of mine owed me some money, nowt major. But I was able to help him out. I was hoping for the funds to be given back as notes.
A local garage, with a reputation of being Dodgy declined his card and wanted him to use a paper machine. Or leave his card etc. So I steped up and paid the £60.
This seamed to upset the "Gentleman".
But I got this lot.
A B&Q cheepie.
Oh joy, another set.
Then a lump of iron was placed on the counter.
It is need of a lot of TLC.
A lot.
Then some plastic.
It is complete, just needs testing.

I had miles of Scalextric as a kid. My mum hated it. Went to set it up one day and she'd given it away.
Nice find, Circa 1998 and goes for a pretty penny on the Bay of theives
