Bread and cheese hill ? or the one on Essex way ?

Great perseverance to a fantastic result! Impressed we are.

I wouldn't be surprised to hear that Boeing use aluminium bolts. :(

I prefer the kiln-dried Ash or Oak, but last year I took a job-lot of 2xM3 "various" from some local lads and their start-up business and it was mainly pine. It all burnt though and no harm seems to have been done.

I fort you only burned propah dried hard wood? I suppose it goes up through another floor and the roof space? I may now stare up ours, if I can. Might actooly be easier to get on the roof and peer down it!!

I suppose that if you try and recut the thread wiv a die it just goes round and round? Maybe you could clamp the tie-rod and ball joint to stop this? I fink your way may be better, unless it starts to go round and round as you use the saw. Best...

If I had to do this moren once, I would!!

I have no insewerants to check with. I ceased that scam about 15 years ago. However, now that I am becoming old, frail etc. etc. I may give it another go. :D

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...

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...
