It was on the verge of a very narrow country lane, and made more treacherous by having frozen solid last night. Luckily the Cashcow shrugs off impact damage like a Volvo 740.

Much too nice to be scrapped. Still in vogue around here as vintage upcycled tables when you stick a top on them, I've done a few, the cheapest I sold was for £80, before I realised that I could get quite a bit more. Used decent tongue and groove boards with a 2x1 edge around, it helped that I could get the wood free as offcuts from someone who build sheds. junkyarddog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Journo from the US saw a Reddit post my Daughter put up showing a video of me being assaulted by a Cat focused on my Blueberry Muffin and they want to call tomorrow to interview me about it.

beko1987 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Plumber came round and confirmed my diagnosis of the heating pump, and the hot water electrovalve is none too clever either. Sent his quote in and asked if I was about tomorrow so that's hopeful. Before he left he showed me how to smack it if I needed which I just have needed to as the heating clicked off earlier and didn't come back on... Smack smack smack and it rumbled into life, tempted to just keep the heating on tonight, so it doesn't stall and not come on in the morning. I've got 3 days of gas to use...
