Mick’s coming for Christmas and to help with some songwriting so I’ve done a big batch of tandoori breakfast curry.

Microwave garlic for 5-10 seconds. It peels itself.

The background is that I have a Countrax ride on mower and lost the key. Improvised with a screw driver in desperation and finally got round to buying a new key holder. The new key holder was differently wired. To cut a long story short I managed to put the wrong wire on the wrong terminal with the result that I got smoke coming out of the top of the engine where the starter motor goes round. See photo. The smoke lasted for about at most 10 seconds probably less when the batter was quickly disconnected. Tried to start it again (more in hope than expectation) and not surprisingly it is dead as a dodo. Now I am an old motorcycle guy and am not familiar with a more modern engine that probably has PCBs and my suspicion is that I have blown something serious... but what? is it the insulation on a copper coil of some sort? (I think not) so what caused the smoke to stop the engine firing ? Where will I find a "Haines" type manual to work out how to take the cowling etc off and get to the working parts of the engine? Yrs aye. Chris George

What is the value of the 'free' advertising that this unit would give you I wonder? If it creates a days work every other month just from the signage then does that make it worth it? Am as above, UK security is an issue... but most of the guys round here have their yards / containers in out of site (ie cheaper) location, end of lanes type of thing... if you are happy using the garage still, keep the van in there with the small tools, and the big stuff in the unit (anything apart from the small machines really - ropes and harnesses can hang in the unit to dry) - and have the unit as the base, drive there in the mornings with all the tools safe still with the van? Till you know if you are likely to have a problem

There's going to be a headline saying TRUMP STEALS HEART OF GOLD before he's out in 2029. I had to look up when he's out. His second term only started in January this year! It feels longer.

Not the dreaded mech🤣

Possibly purposeful. Anyone who spotted it will soon be approached by a man with an umbrella, who remarks that the pigeons in Alexanderplatz are hungry this year.

I reckon they had a tea break in between writing the word and making the clue.

So no-one can possibly have won? Demand a re-match.

Curious, the small number of Epstein files released.. not all of them... have been redacted so that Trumps name does not appear anywhere in them, yet double standards and political shenanigans, the likes of Clinton who Trump doesn't like anymore, does despite neither being charged with any crimes. Makes it even more suspicious when Trump has been removed from documents that are already in the public domain. Not saying he is guilty of any crime other than complicity in Maxwells and Epsteins, but it does look suspicious to a lot of commenters out there.

History is repeating itself with Trump stealing the Venezuelan oil tankers on a made up idea that they are funding drug trafficking into the US - war mongering on an unproven thought. Same with him blowing up small dinghies blaming them for an international drugs trade, no proof, no trial, no evidence, just attack - an act of war... all on a hunch. History repeating itself over the control of oil.

Morning Team, first day of it getting lighter earlier or late later! The dawn chorus sounded just like spring too! Although we finished on Friday, I got some emails and stuff to do while she is at the gym and then I face the barber! Enjoy the break and dont stress over shite! Roll with the punches as it doesn't really matter! Goal, Den, Bouy.

You should check the numbers stamped on the side of the existing bearing or the race. Most Timberwolf 125 trailers from that year use standard AL-KO or Knott axles, but the sizes can vary.
