Did you rebuild that check valve in your pic? I haven't got back on to the einhell yet. I have a little used 026 a mate brought in because it wouldn't run, loaned out a 262 for him to cut some logs. The 026 shows a short from the coil grounding wire to ground.

That's the nub, according to that BBC doctor chap if it lists ingredients that you don't have in a normal kitchen it is ultra processed and not good. Trying to make vegetables taste like meat is always likely to involve ultra processing.

Only thing I had against the standard one at my grand daughter's is that you need gloves to open the door, also too many controls to fiddle with. Shame she won't light it and I end up picking up the tab for the gas bill. I don't remember anything about the baffle support pin either

Try the cricket bat firms that buy the timber. When I last sold some to Wrights they sent their own feller and he cut them with no sink. They then supplied and planted the replacement setts.

That would be about the same as UK forces lost in the 6 years from 1939 to 1945

Won't be that then, although it was predicted to increase at Xmas and I know a couple of people hat have it.

I don't suppose you have any of those funny test kits left.

It is beyond my knowledge. The median household income was about £30k, so that may be a starting point. I depend on my state pension but as has been pointed out it was only envisaged that retirees would receive it for about 5 years, in fact manual workers who were 65 when I started work seemed to die within a couple of years and I have drawn 8 years pension. In terms of overall wealth it should be affordable. BTW it is scrips and paying £9.65 every month wouldn't hurt me but it is possible my medication costs the NHS more than that. The thing is I seem to have to have a prescription to get the drugs (which I am not even sure I need but don't know the risk of stopping them).

Still time yet, most of us probably still carry self replicating RNA care of pfizer

@AHPP is not wrong plus these businesses owned by the wealthy are a means to avoid many taxes

Not from me it isn't, I have frequently said that most of the problem of climate change and pollution is down to the wealthy and that the cost of supporting the poorest, including inevitable fraud, is inconsequential in comparison.

We used to hand in our 5 shillings every Monday and as you say those too poor were readily identified and looking back I am sure I, amongst others, discriminated against them, for which I am ashamed.

Perzactly 😀

How much for a blood test?

Which is the way things are trending

So crud could be either side of the flap to foul the working?

Yes and the bad saw had a split hose from the carb to the purge bulb which I have replaced with a tight fitting one.

I was a baby boomer, worked on the tools after college till I was 59 when I did a quasi management job till I drew a state pension I did not intend to stop working and I did continue self employed and paying a little tax (as my income halved) until I had a health issue. I paid into a private pension fund half of which brings me up to about half of the median wage since I turned 70, inflation is denting it. I do have an asset in half this house but that is not the point. Not many people can afford £1000/month for treatment and if I did I would look to the NHS.

Now now Eggs, it was called national insurance because it is supposed to spread the risk of the cost of health care. Many of us will not have illnesses that cost a lot to treat in our lifetime so our contributions cover the cost of those that do need it. The trouble is as we live longer and medical science produces more treatments keeping us alive gets more expensive and the rich would prefer to keep more of their money so they can avail themselves of advanced treatments as in the american model. In the same way I insure things I have to, like my car, and those things I cannot afford to replace like my house, the insurer picks up the tab for loss of a car and bets (because insurers derived from bookies betting toffs which ships would sink) that the premiums will cover payouts plus a very generous profit.

I should add that so am I and as I believe the welfare state was a good thing I don't want to be an unnecessary financial burden on it.

Of course but in my case I don't know and it might be that the tablets I get every 56 days may cost less than £9.65 and I can easily afford that. I continue to take them because there are no obvious side effects despite feeling my blood clot was a result of a (poorly administered) jab as I appear to have had not predisposing factors to cause a problem. Apart from looking like one of the walking dead I don't seem to be in poor health.

I was thinking that initially but after winding out the Hi screw and it running over fast I got confused. Tried it today and exactly the same happened. The thing is I didn't think the screw controlled all the flow through the mainjet/check valve I thought it just added to the flow through a parallel drilling; i.e. does screwing in the Hi screw cut all the flow to the main jet? Other than what goes through the idle jets. Because it fluffs and will not recover makes me think that the diaphragm is not opening the metering valve yet it must to some extent for it to continue running when the throttle id held full open. I removed the Hi jet screw today and pushed a plastic tube in, when I blew I could not get a good seal but I saw bubbles moving into the purge bulb so the air must have passed through the check valve and into the metering reservoir. BTW I met the owner at the repair cafe today and he said he had opened up the carburetor and cleaned it before he asked me, so he may have blown compressed air into the check valve. I will take the carb off again and test the check valve from the reservoir side.

Thanks, I need to find if any of my prescription is available over the counter. I'm quite happy to avoid costs for the NHS. A good thing about the vet who sees the family dogs is he tells us where to get drugs online rather than through his employers, saves about half the cost.

I agree and I think the deterioration occurs all the time the moisture is above about 25%. I think microbugs can initially respire the volatile solids in the wood and I think these contribute to the lively flame you get with birch. I am burning predominately birch which was cut, split and stored within a week of being felled last March and it has been excellent, because it was dried quickly it lost very little dry matter. The other thing to consider is that the rotting organisms tend to break the organic matter into water, CO2 and a bit of methane, the latter two exhaust to atmosphere but if it is cold the water condenses back onto the wood.

Is the £9.65 the cost for each item on the prescription or does it cover the whole prescription?
