Put a new radiator in the blingo. However, I could only get 4litres of antifreeze in it,and the system holds 8l, so I mustve missed something
And the circular saw at work wasnt circulating the cutting fluid so I took the pump apart and cleaned it,works fine again now

I’ve the skills, but not the equipment.
Are there any of these places with all the gear, that you can do your own work?
Where you pay by the hour to use their tools etc?

what bike is it for?
I could only find a couple that work on my blur

its only a shopping trip.
I thought I read that it would be 7days after the booster, but I couldnt find it again

I read that they dont like peppermint, so Im trying to find some to plant, and hoping that it wont put hedgehogs off

Chakaping- do you still have those 33S?

I have fresh gorilla tape and nobby nic
I couldnt find a leak anywhere but the valve.
Its so frustratin. It has stayed up for a day, but no more
Is there a way to block the valve up externally that would keep the air in until the sealant gets all over and does its work?
Ok, strip clean and retape

mine just did this
it took half an hour of gentle levering and tapping to get the cassette off the freehub

it is needed, theres nowhere fun stuff near here (that i know of) if youre too old for corby skatepark

i dont thing hand sanding does a good job, even with a block of wood, particularly on the inside.
The paper gets torn too easily.
I got an old flap disc off a grinder, and put it on a sanding pad attachment on the drill.
Its easy to put it on slow and get the pressure and places and angles you need
You dont need to chew it up

I had a free Kwikfit check, nice printout with all the angles etc. They wanted £40 to fix it.
I “fixed” it myself, then got it checked at Wilco, who wanted £30. They told me they couldnt measure it, as one wheel was further back than the other, and one coil spring was heavy duty, so they didnt charge me

Mine didnt heal in 5 months so had surgery.
It was a clean break. Must be cos Im 60ish

its been 15 years since I found ticks, so a lot of new information is good
And if I post something wrong it’ll soon get corrected

Lots of good information here.
If I dont have tweezers, I put a blob of vaseline or suchlike on it so it suffocates.
Isnt Lyme disease confined to certain areas? Like maybe some counties?
It would be good to have a map of this so we know where we have to be extra careful.
There were a lot of ticks in Thetford forest but I didnt get lyme disease

I had spots up one side of my body, just as I went on holiday to the Canaries.
I had gabapentin/neurontin from the doctor. I could buy it over the counter there, but not in UK ubfortunately, as it really helped with my sleep too
It didnt hurt, and never came back,but Id keep taking the meds if I could get some

Im sure there was a really bad film, from the late seventies perhaps, which was essentially an earlier Ghost Rider, with the flaming bike flying and burning skull, the hero sold his soul to the devil.
It was rubbish
but what was it called?

I got outdooractive last month, with one months free pro trial I really liked the way it shows all the footpaths and byways etc
It worked ok until 2 days ago, it had logged me out so i couldnt use it.
I changed password just now and logged in, all my saved tracks etc have gone.
I still have a week to cancel my PRO subscription, so I shall probably do just that

thanks brant for the advice, those settings helped
I put a cushion cover in the machin and it came out fine, so therest went in.
Also good to know what the other options are.

I always used RAM mounts,and was riding mostly offroad

was googling this when it got deeper
but yes i need to know these things. and suddenly realised how much help all you guys are here.
and rather than get some corporation’s targetted advice, such as ‘you must always get a qualified bike mechanic to check your tyre presssure before going for a ride’ or ‘this product may contain traces of nuts’ it seemed like i could get a straight(er) answer here
but if it offends you, dont feel the need to reply

its a nice sofa and a good washing machine,but not that big
But just goocled ‘Enzymatic cleaners’, and they sound great for cat smells,maybe better than washing machine on 30, so may give that a go first

its a bit like ‘can I hit this double?’ for the first time. You know you want to….

i had acl surgery 8 years ago, but i reckon i’ slipped or something, and it hasn’t been great. possibly due to jumps on the bike and being 60+yrs old. tried a POD k300 on the moto, but it wasnt comfortable (wrong size) so intersted to know whats out there. NHS hasnt helped so far

isnt it just static electricity?
mine zaps me too, at times

yes its below worktop level, as is the sockety beside it, which comes off the fridge switch
I guess if thats the case I will still have 4mm wires there, and it’d be simple to reinstall the cooker

I still cant find an outlet for the cable
It looks like the previous cooker was gas
thanx alanl for that. I saw the video above about diversity
I took the switch cover off, theres some big wires behind there
Is it a requirement for somebody to have an electrical diagram of each house’s wiring? that would be available to the housing society’s contractors etc?
looks like more microwave scrambled eggs on toast, in the snow, this week

‘Yep 😁 otherwise what’s the switch connected to.’
only the normal socket sofar….
but I’ll look behind it tomorrow.
but why would you have a spare socket connected to it? And are those regular sockets not safe for over 13 Amps?

So with a separate cooker illuminated switch, and a separate Mains circuit in the fusebox labelled 32A cooker, I should expect there to be a big cable there somewhere?

greybeard, theres nothing like that double socket. I have checked behind the cupboards too

there is a dedicated 32 amp breaker just for the cooker
stumpyjon-does that mean taking the socket off and hardwiring the cooker in its place?when you say faceplate, I dont see anything else that would be it. Maybe there is something behind the cupboard by it
I’ll check for it.but cant switch electric off yet as Im testing the new washingmachine.

baby oil is fine, but it doesnt seem to work on reverb (although that could well be a different fault)

aldi ale and crisps
any recommendations for a MEATY chicken pie with no gravy or bacon?
Im giving up eating until it tastes of something

I was in hospital with broken collarbone, 9 cracked ribs, concussion. I believe my bars tapped a tree Was due to start a new job in the morning

i’ve an apeman, with the LEDs that you can see in the dark. next time i’ll get black leds
It does have a ‘spotlight’ too.
It got some good images, at night, and looks good in day too
One of the plastic clips broke, and it failed to record after almost a year, but I got a refund.

P7ven –
Yes, a Canon Aps-c body only , around £200
What would be best for tracking/autofocus.??

I had a LUMIX FZ1000, with the 1″ sensor, the autofocus was fantastic, great for birds in flight etc, though I didnt take many photos of them.Also it had 4k video
I wanted brighter pics so looked at DSLRs. For under £200 I could get a used 100D, which is small and light, but I reckon the autofocus isnt so good. Is it a 9 area system?
So could I get a Canon dslr with as good autofocus as the LUMIX, for £200?

I dont see why they have to be more equal than everyone else
surely there are better things to spend taxpayers money on
All those palaces when theres so many homeless and people that cant afford the rents, and massive estates where noone can go, for grouse shooting by the very rich etc, doesnt make much sense to me
Although if there was no monarchy probably plenty of rich others would want to do the same

Ignoring the fact that that makes no sense, I assume you mean that cryptocurrencies may have some overwhelming benefit that outweighs the downside

If everyone doesnt have to rely on the financial institutions’ regulations, fees,etc,government decisions etc, to do business, and are thus freer to work and live as they choose, that seems positive.
Which is what cryptos aim to do, no?

Since we are conditioned to rely on money. And for most, that comes from doing the same job for 50years, and banks offer what-2%pa interest?
Crypto looks better than mugging grannies, or taking millions off the government for ‘PPE contracts’

1st time you transfer money on Binance it may take a while, I dont know, are you all verifid etc?
The quick transfer (bank transfer) is almost instantaneous

If entertainment is doing great favours for humanity by taking their minds off the important problems of life, instead of resolving them, if education means being able to build a bridge between reality and your own selfish world, if marketing means wasting resources on things we neither want or need, then youtube has a value
If crypto breaks the monopolies that banks and govs have, employers, institutions etc can take the power out of the hands of the richest, that seems well worth it.
