This gives me an idea for a prank to play on our sh!t neighbours, oooh, you terror!We used to get loads of cars turning in the drive, they would drive up then realise there was no where
to go. Pizzes us right off, We have thin grey bins for glass & I used to fill it with water but cable tied
it so you couldnt open it fully & sit it at the front of the drive, driver jumps out to move the bin trys to
move it realises its heavy & try to open it (no chance
Hilarious to watch when I was outside working on the landys.
A builder done it an jumped back in his van as if nowt had happened, fkn brill to watch

Just run the clippers over it. Did used to pay a burd to do this until I realised two haircuts would pay for a set of clippers!
Mind you, have been cutting other peeps hair ever since in boarding school the rules were so strict over hair length that we all used to cut each other's hair. We had to disguise its actual length for Monday tea time when the housemaster used to decide who to send off to Barber Evans, (yet another Evans eh @derwendolly ?)
One useful thing ex wife used to do was to cut my hair, she did it in the most unconventional way, but it worked.
You do need two mirrors though if you want to leave any length anywhere! Only the very top of my bonce is bald, and wifey calls me a convict if I use #2 everywhere. The very best sets have angles combs for doing the back and sides, around the ears!

If you can't eat a steak once in a while when you is retired, where is the fun in life! Anyway, went all James Matin with it, sliced it into thin strips and fried it with some courgettes, mushrooms, slices of french sausage, with garlic salt, and Italian herbs.. Oh and some home made croutons, poured a bit o brandy over it too. Larvely. Wifey had a salad. We often don't eat the same food, she don't like much cooked meat. I'll be doing roast pork today, she'll pick at a coupla very thin slices.Look at you flashing the steaks, hope you enjoyed em we got fish n chips delivered & threw out the
dishesboxes so no mess

I'm a tight git with drill bits too. Still have boxes I bought over 40 years ago. Used to sharpen em too.Hmmmm...... well these were very cheap, so I am NOT expecting too much TBH, but there's enough to see me drill a few of my tap-drill and the like holes I hope.
I'm just a hobbyist so I can take my time and feed them slow and at the proper speed and not try to flog them to death at the wrong speed and wrong feed-rate.

That was the way. Now you can pick up a whole set for a tenner which are worth one shot and get put in the metal bin if you is lucky. My old neighbour, rest his soul, gave me a big box of old engineering drill bitz

Lets just say I got soaked and covered in mud looking at the usual spot. In early December guess what was on the bushes...zilch. But she’ll be happy I went to confirm what I suspected.
