    Always wanted to see if this really worked. I guess a floor tile remover would work too

    I’ve followed many kitchen threads on STW and did mine in lockdown 1. DIY kitchens were offering 10% off which made it very attractive. I would suggest going to their showroom to see the range but they do a refundable door and carcass sample service sent to your home. I used the online service before I went and asked for assistance and changes when I was in the showroom.

    Worktop express was a good shout and a word of warning for anyone thinking about curved end cabinets is that it was a nightmare finding a laminate supplier to cut and supply with a radius curve. In retrospect I would have gone for a stone top and spent the money and saved time and hassle. I had a solid worktop before but found the oiling and maintenance a pain.

    I would suggest getting ready assembled carcasses as you can install these prior to worktop fitter and save time and money. Level the bottom ones and hand the wall ones. I did ended up ordering more than I needed , boards and shelves which didnt fit ( forgot to take into account of pipework in the corner). All in all still cheaper than the wren complete fit quote by 50%. 1-2 days labour for kitchen fitter and a gas engineer to fit and certify the hob.

    I guarantee you that social distancing rules that we apply outside the school context are not being following inside at some time or another. Not the fault of the staff and some of the students. Rhetoric that schools are safe has not changed so I cant see this improving. I havent seen any updated RA from schools regarding the new version of the virus despite the the scientific evidence.
    Bubbles dont protect the kids or the staff. Sorry for the rant, fed up having seen 6 out of 11 teaching staff infected due to one infected member of staff came in. A result of insisting all staff should come in.

    Sure send your kids to school, your kids, your choice. Mine? Happy at home with laptops.

    Make you realise how effective other “celebrities” could be in helping society rather than just using it as a tax vehicle ( IANAA or FA). Well done Mr Rashford for sticking it to the man.

    Car doors or neighbours cars starting used to be my cause. Maybe try sleeping in another room for a short period to break out of the habit. On a side note I thought your post was about

    using a seyvlor hudson with the 2 kids. I believe there is a weight limit of 230 kg which is ok for us. Easy to paddle down a river but found the wind and estuary toward the see a bit more hard work. Surprisingly easy to lift out will try portage across the locks next time I go out

    Merc are really taking the p**s. They run around q1/2/3 engines turned to eco mode to keep everyone interested and probably give Tracing point strat mode to makie it look closer than it is. Quite frankly its begining to be a bore fest. The shining light is Norris squeezing every ounce of performance out of the car.

    I actually quite like Vettel’s british humour. You cant become a Champion without a sense of arrogance etc. But isnt this just symptomatic of our approach to sportpersons to kick them when they are down. Its not just Vettel that hasnt brought his A game to the party this year.

    Perez is very special in nursing his tyres and getting the car to the finish line. I think he is vastly underated in that sense.

    Drop Kvyat and put Albon alongside Gasly to compare. Get Vettel in for the year or two

    sorry to say karma for Red bull. I really think Verstappen would’ve been in great shape at the end

    3 place grid penalty for Lewis . Red bull pulling out the stops for a win this weekend. Raising questions for everything Mercedes. Someone really doesnt want Lewis to win this weekend

    I got mine independently when I was working as an instructor https://www.onlinedbschecks.co.uk/dbs-options/

    Schools and organizations will do their own checks and you end up with loads of them as they were valid for 3 years. The next one I do will probably be one with the update service

    so did the track and trace app kick in. I wonder which poor call centre track and trace operator had to call all those in the chamber? Lets see the figures on how the world beating app is doing.

    ifs its good enough to send teachers in and open schools then it should be safe enough for MPs to work in Parliament. Just make sure they stay in their own bubble. The risk is low unless they don’t believe in their own science backed strategy?

    any chance of Latifi doing a Stroll or is he not on the same level in term of finances? On wiki it claims he put 200m into Mclaren

    yep could it be any worse than it is now? Just for sheer amusement and egos! Its a real shame as I have grown up watching Williams go racing with McLaren.

    Should cummings have a fine for breaking lockdown? If not I would suggest that all fines should be refunded on that basis

    great fight and superb tactic by fury. Good body shots rather than head hunting of which Wilder could learn from.

    Definitely something not right about Wilder tonight much like AJ. His corner were in disarray with even now are in two minds regarding throwing in the towel. He didnt look like he was ever going to see the fight to the end, looking tired before the end of the first round. The commentators mentioned that the lack of tactics from his corner but fair play to fury for going with what he suggested in the pre fight. Rematch will go the same way as Wilders number is up and hasnt shown much progression in changing his style over the last 5 fights. I wonder if Hearn will swerve Whyte again?

    wow. It was a great fight. What did you expect AJ to do coming from the last fight. He fought like Fury and Klitchko roiled into one. Fury gets praise for jabbing to victory I think for AJ to rewrite his style is mighty impressive.

    if you are hacked off enough I’d ask the petrol station for the video footage as pass it along to the relevant parties and let then deal with it.

    Not angry per se just standing up for what you believe in

    yeah watch out Vettel and Hamilton, expect a Verstappen sized torpedo in the side of your car.
