Nulok passed our inspection, in fact the BCO and I had a giggle about what's printed - embossed- on the back of each tile. HAPPINESS. Hopefully French folk who order the tiles don't read that out loud in the presence of les anglais.

Ya lost me with '... Much in the same way the 5 cell ones... ' I'd 'a made a brilliant electrician.

Here's the Bosch version of the same issue.

So, you live in a hut way out in the back end of nowhere, all of grid. You get bitten by some little criter - and get cellulitis, followed by the inevitable fever, start feeling lethargic . By good fortune, you've got some antibiotic. But that runs out..... Takes guts to die like that.

My son used to work as a tree planter in Canada. Earned enough in a few months to last the year. Some of his older more experienced mates had, after a few years of intense hard work earned enough to be able to retire. It's not unknown for ex tree planters to hitch a heli ride out into the Bush, pick a spot, fell some trees, build a log cabin and live there unmolested for as long as they were well enough to survive. The issue here is lack of space. In Canada you can actually disappear into the wilderness. It's all fun and games until the myocardial infarction or dental abscess. Hence its common to find such off gridsters tending a large weed farm. Bear tastes like wild boar I hear.

You sure thats not illegal ?

Exactly right. And wrong. The rodding point will be exactly where the yellow spot is.....

Thanks for the thought @epsilonGreedy Have another look at this image .... The yellow dot represents another connection running vertical at that position (as yet not fitted) coming from the roof of the piggery, a washing machine and small sink. (sanctioned by the BCO) The piggery is to be used as a laundry. The arrangement agreed with the BCO is that the swept 135 (posted above) should provide for a roddable line which enters the as yet blanked off end of the 135 - as well as an outlet for the shower. Cats and skinning comes to mind. As well as digging by hand.

said the man..... well I wasn't to know that grey stuff wasn't certified was I? So I grabbed some 11s and 22s ( BM open FGS!!!!!) and My god, spraying silicone (sorry, KY) on three piping corners and then trying to twist them to the right shape is like Turkish oil wrestling. Ya cant get yer hand to grip anywhere. Those pipe straps worked a treat. Now, how do I test this little branch of my system? I can't block the inside of the I/C can I? (Normal stoppers are too big)

Thank you very much @JFDIY. Its very kind of you to lay out one way of sorting out my loo and shower drains. I am only just discovering the joys of making your own foul drainage runs. And playing with 45s, 30s , 22s and 11s is a pleasure that I have never had until today. It's a bit like playing with your grandchildrens' transformer toys. Just for fun, I had a go at making a loop out of all my corners : well, it is Friday after all. I take the point about the loo being on the main run : it makes emminent good sense to do that. You have taught me to look a bit harder at the layout of the base of the I/C. I'll remember that for next time. The complication of needing to add another run to that I/C (at a later date) and having to hand dig in what is now rock hard clay means I'll stick with the piping layout that we currrently have. But thanks all the same. Ian

OK. PM on its way....

Do you want my red laser ? + L-Box, receivers (2, one never used) , staff attachment, laser target, bubble level for the staff, wall / multi-surface attachment

Is it worth selling my beautiful Bosch red line (380 GLL 3) and and buying a green equivlent? (Please say - yes - )

Wanna job? I'll clear up.... promise.

I do. Erm ... have to. The plan is to sell off at least some, but keep the Festool stuff that I slid in under the radar. Hope SWMBO doesn't read this

I see you cleaning lady is self-isolating .....? Either that or get a cheaper camera.

Whatever you buy, photograph each item, keep the invoice, photograph each invoice. Security mark each one Consider a tool safe Make sure your insurance cover for the total value of hand tools is adequate. I got to £5000 worth astonishingly quickly

Wha? Bend a polypipe? You Charlie Atlas or summat?

Yes. I will start bedding stuff in tomorrow. Haven't got 11s and 22s but I will sort that pronto.

@PeterW, wots the craik with the 11 and 22 degree bends? Do I just make the same bodge up out of those?

Happy night tonight...... might have a bit of giggle water .... Thanks @PeterW

Wot, each section (pipe) ? .... bloody hell.

8002 mm ...

I think @epsilonGreedy has implicitly accepted that the I/C is correctly orientated as is.....?

Looks like I'm spending tomorrow digging ........ The peg at the end of the line is about 50mm from the side of the trench. So I need to shave another 80mm off the left hand side - which is a real ball ache because the land drain is about 81mm from the side: in other words, it's going to collapse. kcuf it
