We have ours done every year, herself says it's a requirement in the house insewerants. Might be worth checking yours?

Not huge bucket I suspect. He had vacuumed as much of it that came down the chimney directly into his catch can and what the physically shoveled out of the fire-box was like a black mountain of soot to the top 1/3rd of the box. I have always...

How big were the buckets 🤔 . But then we usually get about 2/3rd to 1/2 of bucket every year. Think the bucket is about the size of a 25l paint can, its a Karcher thing so the hoover does the work and it drops in the can. But then we do burn...

Thanks for the patience with this lad Stan, much appreciated. :) Having tried BPE5 plugs to no avail (except the introduction of pre-ignition) I did a few things. 1. I put the BPE6 plugs (cleaned up with a gas torch) back in. 2. I popped the...

OK, get all that. But as long as you make a note of how much you back the mixture off, I don't see how that would be a concern. sure it'd weaken the mixture across the range but they often leave it running a little rich. It is obviously tuned on...

I shall be going off for a 3 day cycling trip to Cambs next month. It has been a rather sudden decision. So I am scrambling to get the delta trike "match fit". The seat fabric has mostly perished and I need to replace it, but they no longer...

I got a quarter of a bucket after two years, I was burning mostly old pallets though and they burn very hot and clean

... I had our chimney swept last week. It had not been done since the log-burner was installed 5 years ago and the chimney liner installed. I was rather surprised at the amount of pure black soot that was pulled out of the liner. Easily 2...

Afternoon all, done all the fluids in the Disco. Hand brake cable & speedo cable to fit oh & the flippen track rod end has a stripped nut & the threads are damaged id forgot about this when I took it apart. I think i have one in the shed. I...

Do you want some more Marjon got thousands of them

Nah. An FL can't even make it through a small puddle without falling to bits :p

Get a chipper only about £600 worth every penny

Bit like a FL then 😯

Flipping hot here again today. Pool up to 25 and climbing. Clearing the pine branches I had to cut off the trees that make the western boundary when I was putting up the fence two years ago. I hoped they would have rotted down a bit but nope...

Eye has just re wotched the titan sub telly program on bbc eye player. The company were filming their activities fer history and advertising. So yer get to see the mistakes like choosing to only fit 4 of 18 bolts to hold the end on. End came oft...

Mornin Dull and warm here Sunflowers still climbing skywards, look like being a success this year Might polish the Freelander while it's a dull day 🤔 Meantime another brew is needed Stay cool and dry all :) Edit. suns just come out :D

Morning All. :D Another scorcher looms. :) Have a great day. :)

Evening all, ive been a tad busy to spend some time on here lately. One of the lads tonight went to launch his boat..as he was going down the slipway I noticed the pin was out the towbar & shouted """The Pi"........ oh well, by then the boat...

I'm sure you enjoyed a cocker two.

We had a king Charles Cavalier that would do anything for a guzzle of beer! And a cocker that lovd tea!

Now that has given me an idea. Chickens fed on curry sauce ----- 😁

I'm sure you could get a start-up grant for that!! gives a new twist to "Chicken Tikka Masala" (If that is how you spell it!!)

Chickens love eating herbs so I bet thay would eat curry powder mixed with grain , bit like a red factor canary just a yellow bird but you feed it with red pepper and you get a red bird

I have to admit that, like présalé lamb, (delish if you can afford it) the idea of feeding a bird on Paxo for a while, then cooking it and eating it, might be interesting. I wonder if they would eat it though? (All bollix of course!)

Afternoon 31c here, air con struggled sat in traffic on motorway, home in front of fan now with a brew

Adjusted that for you 😁

Morning all! another extremely hot day, predicted to get up to 39 today. Pool cleaning to take place. (CBA yessdi in the heat!). Have a nice day! :):):)

We don't eat turkey, or chicken at Crispmus!! Anyway their new owner will likely give them presents! 🤣 🤣 🤣
