Bren Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Weather in Warringtonshire is too shite to be messing around with horseless carriages. And I have a week off work. So I started to blitz the kitchen cupboards. They needed a clean and sort out. I am in process of organising a party for a packet of fry - them - yourself prawn crackers that are approaching their tenth birthday. rattlecan, Back_For_More, DSdriver and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funnily enough I’ve been a bit full of cold since Christmas & I found some flu powder sachets at the back of a shelf in my office at work. They were use by end of 2006, they were sound 🤣 myglaren, Saabnut and Bren 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoverFolkUs Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Got a message from a mate earlier, sent a picture of a delightful looking Rover 420 HHR in Nightfire red with those 5 spoke alloys they came in that he'd spotted Looked like an absolute peach, and the private plate on it suggested its quite well loved Is it bad that I'm the person that someone sends a picture to, after getting excited on my behalf only for spotting a nice Rover out in the wild? 😂😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might write elsewhere how I'm making some pretty chunky changes to life in a bid to find true, unabated contentment. Part of this is increasing self reliance, so I thought I'd give it a go. The National Association of Chimney Sweeps will claim I'm putting lives at risk, but their members charge £100 for what took me 20 minutes (rarely used chimney) and have a vested interest. I have to say, I really enjoyed it! Borrowed a set of rods from a neighbour, the brush was conveniently the perfect size and I didn't end proceedings looking like a Golliwog either. Managed to dislodge a sensible amount of soot, and a few twigs from the circling Jackdaws. Next job is to get a little man up on the roof to fit the cap I was gifted by another neighbour. Final Score: Daniel 1 - 0 Consumerism. Have been sweeping own chimney for years, in several houses. Always gives a real sense of satisfaction. Especially if you happen to get a whole birds nest and dead bird down like i managed once, that would have ben a bad day had the fire been lit.

Saabnut Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 That is why I was confused! I thought maybe it was one of the small sections of the Inverurie canal that still remains, but could not remember a section that long or that full of water! 320touring 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
