You get bore wash and lose compression if you use it too often then have to use it all the time. The yard I worked at as a teenager had a van with a Perkins engine that used a can a day to get it going.

That happens with petrol engines when the air fuel meter or throttle position sensor start to break down. A lot of problems are caused by the EGR valve or if the engine is newer the DPF in the exhaust. EGR can be cleaned out with some carb cleaner if it's not too far gone.

We buy a boiled ham hock and a box of dried peas and my wife makes a batch of soup which is frozen in portions. She does leek and potato as well. With a slice of bread and butter to dip in it's lovely, it has to be thick enough to stand the spoon up though.

You ought to do a book on stove spotting Jon Bit of a conner sewer, I can tell

She's in more pictures, one's an advert for a screw.(for the screen hinge)

You can make catapults from the Therabands, more fun than physio

Get yourself a didgeridoo and learn to "play" it. I find blowing out all my waste energy and making daft noises very therapeutic.

Put a couple of drops on a tissue if you don't recognise the smell. The petrol will be gone in 10 minutes and the diesel will still be there and oily

Dave Allen is on again tonight at 2300 on bbc 2. The thing I remember most about him was he was a bit short on finger
-
Sorry to hear so many people have lost a friend. My condolences to his family.

I had a problem this year where an item was not as described and the seller would not reply to my messages so I contacted ebay. They told me to wait a week to see if he would reply with a return address then I received a message from ebay saying they were refunding me and I could keep the item (it was a tablecloth which was round not square so was no use to us)

Her first five were "where the hell's my bl**dy" She was 22 at the time though

Never know when you might get caught short !

It looks like a man seeking enlightenment

That's from the old weebl's site. Grandson used to love it when he was little and he's 13 now so it's been doing the rounds for a fair while. Look for Patrick Moore plays the xylophone when she comes back round. They're doing narwhals for 10 hours as well

When I were a lad we used to walk on't top o't snow and pinch bulbs out o't street lamps. You tell that to't kids o' today and they wouldn't believe you

Just looked out the window again and the update is in the last 30 minutes there has been about 3" of snow It's covered the road outside
-
It's raining heavy here and just turning to sleet but it feels really cold and the forecast is for snow later tonight.

That's called lusting Pete, it's not the same thing much more short term

No need for any discussion, that's faulty and dangerous and it arrived like that. The sight glass is not sealed and it looks like a manufacturing fault so it needs replacing.

What I wanted for xmas but hasn't been invented yet
peatff replied to NickinMids's topic in General chat
Robot squirrels will be more practical than drones for throwbag replacement. You wouldn't get a drone through a bushy canopy. If it was a squirrel/beaver hybrid you could use it to do light reductions as well. -
I thought it was going to be a remake of the old series, what a let down. I don't want to think about your codpiece pullout thanks.

The link is to Home Bargains which is a different operation to B&M. There is one of each in Alfreton near us. My wife just pointed this out to me, she is the pedantic one not me.

Did he tell them how to play conkers with the ones they had collected ? Shame to waste all their efforts. A couple of years ago we went to walk round a local house and garden open to the public and were surprised to see sweet chestnuts all over the lawn. I filled my pockets and a few other receptacles. People were looking at me gone out but I was quite happy to let them. There is a tree in a local wood that bears fruit but the squirrels always get there first.

Merry Christmas and Happy new year to everybody, peace on Earth goodwill to mankind and all the other kind as well.
