We were following thinking you would be doing a full valet at the end
You did seem a tad envious of that fine trio of Stornoway's
As for the scones I did abstain from them, nothing to do with CG's top notch hospitality, its just they don't sit well on one of Ken's finest breakfasts.

Good one toeknee On the day we were putting opinion 'differences' aside, we were happy to sit at a table with a black Freely owners which was nothing....the big issue was that CG wined and dined two VANERS

Crikey Mcphers, I distinctly heard you say "line them up try and hide the Black one save Toeknees embarrassment"

yes but you only got Mrs G's poxy scones not my home cooked lemon drizzle cake - delicious At work

This derogatory comment regarding your darling wife's home made cooking is now on record CG, potentially to be viewed by millions
I've printed it out for an internet secure hard copy - It would be a shame if she got a copy of it through the post

better to throw a copy of that at her than one of her scones

Mrs G enjoyed my cooking so much she had me convert the front porch into a mini kitchen, notice the lack of oven

Just finished the diy project today so say nice things . Many thank to the people at screwfix who send me the worlds leakiest bottle trap for the sink that was an hour of my time well spent (fixed it with silicon tape in the end).

As part of my new found climate friendly attitude the walls have all been skined with insulated plaster board, I will save the planet alone as you lot are doing naff all about it

Elf 'n safety - That plug socket has to be too near the sink
It must be a hard life being a farmer, 18 hour non stop security on the chickens and then a DIY job on the side Or have you been doing a bit of decorating in 'Company time'

That socket may have just got away with it, should be no shorter than 300mm horizontally from sink, but if it's a new installation it must be protected by a 30mA RCD.

RCD , in an old farmhouse fuse wire was good enough for my granddad the chickens are better protected than my family.

The sockets old just moved out by the insulation. using extra long screws to the old metal box At work

Very nice, where are the kick boards? Like the picture right above the socket hope you didnt drill the cables fixing it. Thats why everything in a domestic property has to be covered by a 30ma rcd now, to stop you diyers killing yourselves or others.

That reminds me of my ex in-laws old damp house that was wired using the old lead covered cable many moons ago. They put a picture up on the wall and whacked a nail through the buried lead sheath into the live cable without knowing, and as the earthing was non existent on a wet day if you leant against any wall that was damp with your hand it would give you a belt

By the way CG, it looks nice

Ah the good old days, no earthing no faults, the problem nowadays replacing a consumer unit for a nice safe rcd and mcb protected one it trips out if there are any faults how inconvenient "it never use to do that before".
No! not when you had no earthing and nails as fuse wire.

Trouble was, even when you had no appliances turned on you could still be racking up an electricity bill due to the earth leakage As you say, good ol days.

Dare I say it, they were a bit on the poor side and inside the meter connection box was a small link that they use to drop to stop the meter wheel going around

Has nobody noticed CG has a LAGO washer and a FIJI dryer-Not SANTORINI.

Bet his Microwave oven is RIMINI
