  1. Wasn't Dillon from the Magic Roundabout supposed to be perpetually stoned?
  2. Well I've SAT on it! After +72 hrs. All 17 stone of me. Must admit I didn't take my feet off the floor... No creaking, no movement, nada. Not yet used in anger but when that happens I promise to spare everyone the Christening photos!
  3. Wasn't me who called his golden retriever Roger! That's just wrong...
  4. Roger the Cabin Boy!
  5. Matey was launched in 1958!
  6. Wicked! I actually remember that as a kid.
  7. 1km of that would need to be on a cable drum type trailer imo. You can hire them: https://www.rotrexwinches.co.uk/products/cable-drum-trailers/?
  8. Way back I did consider something on those lines. Bathroom's not big enough. Tbh I'm stilI concerned I might need an enclosure if the splash zone is too great. Still debating a ring of the cheap blue deck lights around the rainfall head that rotate Knight Rider style. Or would that look tacky?
  9. I've got to ask have you got power IN there?
  10. Cramer Fugi kit ordered (via a student Amazon Prime account ) Thanks @PeterStarck. Some idiot forgot to position the bath prior to filling it up with water do had to drain & refill! All grouted now. Wouldn't have believed the amount the deck "sank" with water in the bath. Must have been a good mm. Another top tip from @Nickfromwales! Pipes for the towel rad grouted in too.
  11. That looks fantastic! ?
  12. One for you (and me) on TV then tomorrow night. 8.30pm: https://www.channel4.com/tv-guide/2019/02/11 Pretty sure my weight gain coincided with prescribed antibiotics over a few years in my early 20s. Upset my microbiome I reckon.
  13. Corrected that for you...hairy enough!
  14. Yep, I've piles of 'em...
  15. Apologies if I missed the bit about them being twice as wide as they need to be previously. I'll now aim for a thinner bead from the off.
  16. I never said I was an expert. I appreciate all your advice but you're pretty back and white at times! You can't say cut square doesn't work when I've tried it and put up the photos of the results that imo are perfect. If you want to "argue" in the face of absolute proof I'm at a loss. I will likely try cutting at an angle too as I'm unable to get the gun in now under the wc.
  17. Just read your link. £120 with a 16mm chuck. I'd go for it too over my Record suggestion.
  18. I've a cheapo Rolson...bought new for about £39.99. It is what it is but seen some use. Also got a Rexon DP-250A. Cracking little machine. Well made and you can get spares. Buying a small one now I'd probably go for something like this: https://www.raygrahams.com/products/129321-record-dp16b-bench-drill-12-inch-chuck-240-volt.aspx?
  19. I think this proves cutting square works:
  20. Nozzle cut dead square and at just less than the width of the face of the bead. Very little waste when I tooled those samples.
  21. Oxygen bleach aka sodium percarbonate maybe?
  22. Looks shite close up. Going to re do.
  23. Imo the two tests on the MDF are perfect. Happy with either.
