I'm thinking of having a tattoo for my birthday this year, but I don't like bagpipes and my gardens not big enough

lol. How else am I supposed to clean engine parts. Fortunately very easy to replace and is a 2 minute job. Well, that is not going to keep me occupied for long.
Supplier has shipped the part already... should be here Friday latest. Did not see the point in paying for next day delivery.

Morning

lol rovi, I can't imagine how the washing machine paddle got damaged, sounds like someone may have left something like a spanner or swrewdriver in a pocket, I trust you will advise Mrs Jonck to be more careful going forward

Good Morning.
Rain is very heavy this morning.

I discovered last night there is a small chunk of plastic missing on one of the washing machine drum paddles. No worries, have ordered a new one to replace it so clothes do not get damaged by the sharp corners.

Good Morning.
I now have a big hole in my back garden where they are replacing a gas pipe into the house.

That's a five star gag rovi

Or were they a soul band? Best I could do lol

The weather forecast for tonight has been described as Motown weather.so we can expect by. Three degrees maybe 4 tops.

Thanks guys and I would like her to stay here, my lovely daughter came round tonight and we ordered a curry, she was a bit cold so the heating and an electric fire were at full blast until she left a short while ago, lord knows what my gas & electric bill will look like !

I said they were digging up our road, I lied, they use in effect a big vacuum cleaner and suck up all the soil to make a hole. Clever, saves risk of damaging pipes and is fast.

[jonjonck] 10/12/2023 10:47

I missed your post 2G.
Yes, rovi is right. It is a natural reaction and may or may not pass. Her job, her home and friends around her, including you, will all be something she may not want to lose in the end once she thinks rationally about moving.

[jonjonck] 10/12/2023 08:50

Good morning.
We have rain and a wet day yet again but at least it is 6 degrees.

[2gekko] 10/12/2023 08:19

Morning

Thanks rovi, mine is also Anglian water but from the road onto my property is my responsibility

A has said that now her mum has gone through the pearly gates she wants to move back to London to be near her family, I'm no Columbo but know that means there is no future in a relationship, ah well back to the drawing board

[rovi70] 09/12/2023 17:04

We are so lucky, when the three houses were connected to water in and out it was though conjoining pipes. So all costs associated with water/sewerage are down to anglia water. Good luck with your water supposed water leak. Weather been windy little rain 11 degrees was the highest temperature we hit but not for long.

[2gekko] 09/12/2023 13:44

Yes well earned and no wok today, I sometimes do a couple of hours at weekends though

Water company say I have a leak and use 8 litres 24/7 however on the account usage report they say I use less than a comparable house in my road, what have we all got leaks then, I shall find out in new year as have to go away for three days with wok and can check daily usage when I get back

[jonjonck] 09/12/2023 08:34

Good Morning.
I agree, cold but dry is better than warmer with rain. However I would rather have rain than wind.
A well earned wok free weekend I expect.

[jonjonck] 08/12/2023 14:24

..and be rich beyond my wildest dreams.

[2gekko] 08/12/2023 14:10
