Marking ropes is not very precise to begin with but you learn the sizes for each rope and marking is seconds. I like to use thread instead of marker pen. A biner eye on 8-10mm prussik cord might be 62-65mm but 72-77mm on thicker climbing rope, if I remember. I've messed up a couple but so far eye sizes have been dead on. I had a lock stitching needle eye snap and get stuck in a splice, that caused some swearing. Cut it off and started again.

I think elm.

Can we talk about underrated bands in this thread too? Idlewild are excellent (and I think pretty well known) but don’t show the signs of conventional success. I’ve got YouTube videos with more views than them. Mick Dempsey has more followers on instagram. Make it make sense. I’d have given a kidney to be at the Iona show.

Try ecocomach ( not sure about spelling) or case they did a 2.7 triple

I would suggest that this is an issue/ It looks like the glue that seals the welch plug is failing. You could try using some super glue to reseal it but you need to dry and degrease it and use the glue very sparingly so it doesn't seep down inside the plug. Something like thick gorilla glue is good. I've tried this bodge on a few plugs and it seems to have worked.

The deal was that they got proper stuff in but alas, it is tip site! One that had various chip truck, 4x4 and trailers dump and go.

Phase 2.

I always hate Willow. Previous tenants next door planted one nearly ten yards from the foul water sanitary pipes serving our bungalows, only a few years ago. I was surprised to find that it had got in there, and was causing a blockage. Our landlady was not amused. The tree's not there any more. Our flowering cherry, which was here when we arrived, has never been an issue in over forty years.

This man saved lives when terrorists struck on London Bridge, he received multiple stab wounds while saving people, yet he's had no, or little recognition. I wonder if it's to do with his reputation?

Thanks to @green heart I have been converted - the Echo DCS2500 style clips are nice for high clipping and stowing the saw, so I've made a few for my saws. I decided theres no need for the lanyard to have a massive girth hitched loop, as the clip removes from the saw easily enough. This makes it slightly longer, less bulky and easier to clip. Its not the neatest thing as I was learning how to use sewing machine. This Stein lanyard gained a tight biner eye. It came with a twisted loop on the saw end so I cut one side and sewed it as a flat loop (hand sewn whipping twine for the strength). Not pretty but its strong enough. On the clone I have this longer green lanyard. It didnt come with a stowing ring so a while back, I added one. Today I added whipping twine to sew a tight eye at the saw end. Set up sewing machine to stitch the huge loop flat.

Boo, sucks. NASA just delayed the Artemis 2 moon mission because its giant rocket has a leak — we've seen this before | Space WWW.SPACE.COM The agency had been eyeing Feb. 8 for the historic liftoff. Now, it's no earlier than...

It felt springy on the last shoot (31st January). My mate, albeit in a gloomy mood, remarked that did it fjuck (but a couple of moments later confessed he’d just seen a daffodil tip). Generally easy winter I’d say. Last year was cold (slippery and frozen water for fowl) and the one before was that cold rain that dragged on forever. I particularly remember a particular act of desperation of going on the airport website to see if I could fly somewhere warm, like now.

Hard and unenjoyable watching but interesting subject. Who uses these day-to-day?

If you arrived to me and my motor was unfixable and your tablet didn't give you the option of booking recovery, but customer has it on policy, would you phone in or is it policy to get them to phone the office and leave them to it.

My 3 year old and 1 year old having a rest bless em

It's the way the story goes. Thanks.

Hose pipe ban in 6 months .

You can test for that by switching the plugs around, if it works rollers reverse fine then you found your culprit as you have eliminated everything else in the forward circuit, one for next time.

Turns out one end is not 3/8 BSP, it's metric M18 x 1.5. I can see why the fittings are mismatched now. No one makes a coupler that is 1/2BSP on one end and M18 x 1.5 bulkhead fitting on the other end. More stuff ordered.
