  2. Try balancing a ladder on top of a wheelie bin. That’s what a professional would do :thumbsup:

    Half a mile down the road I had no choice but to follow the other cars through a flooded section that looked a little deep for my liking. Almost wished I was in the bus with more ground clearance.
    Another mile or so down the road I had to scrabble around lying down with outstretched arm underneath and shove one of the under trays back up as it was dragging along the road .

    Cliffs down past Hastings had taken a battering from rain and sea and were as crumbly as I’ve seen them. Sandstone isn’t very stable when wet, it soaks up water like, well, sand, and the weight of it added to the undercut wave erosion makes for an ‘exciting’ walk on the beach. Lucky the tide was right out.

    :oops: You make one slight error in skilful use of household items as a ladder supplement and you’re never allowed to forget it!!
     
  6. You won't be missing much if the TV this Christmas is anything to go by, as I post this reply the BBC Click programme with the jet suit report is on for the fourth time in as many days.

    HaHa - my oldest mate was interviewed on BBC over that case, the analytics from the car he used were used as evidence.

    I was working for JLR at the time, and had a fair amount of info of what their Connected Car system did and its role in the prosecution.



    Still - red faced covid/vaccine deniers still maintain the anonymity of digital vapour trail will only be compromised due to the 'made up' pandemic.

    At least it was sunny today down here.
    Rain/sleet/snow tomorrow. As if it weren’t wetter than an otter’s pocket already.

    I suppose it’s more interesting than just plain old rain...

  10. It could only happen on Anglesey, although I now occasionally wear a kevlar pacamac when cleaning the gutters in leafy Bucks - just in case....

  11. My maypole cover split right down the middle. It was on its last legs to be fair,but was about 7 years old. I have been happy with so ordered another this morning.

    What happened to the maypole?
     
  13. Looks like it's been blindfolded by the Taliban.

    The trick is to stop the cover flapping about by making sure there arent any floppy parts. Its not always the case that the cover is actually built right..

    Like on the JK ones, the straps underneath will tear off the edge of the cover if you put them straight across, but of you cross them over, the extra tension around the front and back stops large panels from moving.

    I think we may have sleeted here overnight, judging by the slightly textured nature of the decking and the dog's impersonation of a young Bambi when he tried to get across it this morning. That'll be it though, any chance of a snowman gone already!

    No sign of any such excitement, just damp and grey.
     
  17. Does anyone else look forward to hard frosts because it's easier to shovel up dog poo in the garden when its frozen solid?
