    A colleague of mine removed it .... we don't want anyone to be bombarded with PPI rubbish. I should have PMed you to explain before you noticed it. My apologies. Ian

    That wasn't an excuse. It was a reason. *straight face*

    Pressure and support. Expect a little more and give just a bit more support. We were both like that once Ed.

    So, this gyroscope, had a bit of a wobble did she? Reassuring, that.

    I'm suffering with a professional whose performance as a ducker and diver rivals that of the average dolphin. He's trotted out some pretty good excuses, mostly of the 'dog-ate-my-homework' type. The latest is 'the-system-ate-your-email' What's the best excuse you've heard?

    Excellent question Peter. And in the calculation of this number hangs a lot of hidden jiggery pokery. And dancing on the head of pins. Here's too much detail on how the 'professionals' work it out from this url For ease of use, I attach the pdf Code_of_measuring_practice_6th_edition.pdf

    In answering this question for myself, I almost lost the will to live. There are so many twists, turns, exclusions, differences of emphasis among policies on offer, that I asked our insurance agent to sort it out. The eventual compromise is of the 'least-unsatisfactory' sort. Good luck.

    Has anyone needed to re-seal their shipping container door with new rubber seals? If so, which adhesive did you use, please?

    Yep, I agree. I've asked him for a go in it - and so far he's always refused. I'm working on it though.

    It's the 60 tonner quarry bucket under the front axle that gets me......

    I've tried for a year not to post this image. I just couldn't take the pressure any more. Goggle and weep. This where I get my hardcore - and a lot more. A lot more The keys are in the ignition, there's a copy of the Daily Mirror on the dash. Please don't tell anyone.

    Hmmmmm. Someone will pile in with the physics and maths of this. If a Landy can do it, so can many other vehicles I suppose. Nowt much special about Landies...... mine (all of them) irritates (..ed) the Hell out of me; the sloppiness in the build, the dreadful design, the leaks [in and out], but worst of all my own utter mindless stupidity in buying many. It (currently a 90) regularly ruins my back, throws a hissy, grabs me by the throat with the number of false earths, drinks diesel like an Oil Sheikh. There are so many better designed, cheaper, more reliable Japanese equivalents. OK their fuel figures have been fixed, but hey, even Germans play that game. Apart from that they're fine

    Eeeeer! Do you lot work for the Irish Tourist Board eh?
  16. ToughButterCup
    Well SwissCheese, neither do I. My fingertips are burning a bit... a producer identifying the specification necessary. Hmm, I'd wonder about that.
  17. ToughButterCup
    KISS. I hadn't thought of that.....

    Many people have benefited from this resource in the past, and I am sure will do so in the future. So I have pinned this post.

  22. ToughButterCup
    Ok. Next question... cheapest brand of vapour barrier Ian
  23. ToughButterCup
    Brilliant. Just like being back in the Army. Check your OP for light...... and an excuse to go and buy those LED floods.... excellent...
  24. ToughButterCup
    Ah, yeah, forgot that... I've got a spare fan or two and a seventeenth hand solar panel...Thanks!
  25. ToughButterCup
    Ahhh, filling cracks, the sheer delight of that process. I just lurve it.
