somewhatfoolish Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 This nonsense; while the effort and perspicacity is admirable they're environmentalists who've taken a big downer on HS2, which given its likely effect on the rail network is going to be really green seems ill-informed at best(unless they're hairshirt greens who want a return to agrarian subsistence and the genocide that would entail, in which case filling in the hole is a tempting idea).

It's an interesting article which would be worthy of discussion about propaganda. Why are they interviewing someone so young and passionate, when there are so many other protesters. Why do they make a point of her talking about her father being an environmental.protestor, and detailing her story in a way that she sounds nieve and manipulated, leaving you thinking she's part of a cult. Why do they make you think " Well yes, you want a future, but you are so stupid, you are going to be crushed to death in your badly constructed homemade tunnel, and therefore have no future" It's very cleverly written. crad and Supernaut 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymous user Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 I appear to have mice in the kitchen. Not sure how they little sods have got in. Haven't seen one but found evidence after pulling the kitchen plinths off. I'm currently having a cup of tea and a nice sit down, as crawling around on the floor to clean under the units has knackered me. I'll have to make an essential journey in a bit to get some traps/bait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were coming in through drain from the kitchen sink, or at least the hole around the waste pipe. A can of expanding foam cured that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep meaning to replace my boring little Canon printer, but looking around, it copes with being sat unused for 3/4 months then suddenly printing an page out then back on the shelf... Not sure what other printers would do that May as well spend the £30 on a set of ink and stay safe! (after mooching around tesco incase they've still got any £30 printers...)

beko1987 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Mines got the heads in the cartridge and I think that's why I have less trouble vs expensive ink and the head being seperate. My granny makes cards and stuff though and swears by the Epson tank printers, but they use it every day and put gallons of hooky ink through it, they break due to heavy use with them, rather than the other way round! She's never had a clog though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dozeydustman Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 My first week’s leave of two consisted of rain rain rain rain rain garage roof leaking rain rain rain shed leaking rain rain rain rain. FFS can’t do anything on the cars as garage floor is wet, constantly pissing down with liquid precipitate, and the one break in the weather when I might get a chance to do something I’ve had to do an emergency plumbing job as the cistern in the upstairs bog didn’t stop filling - as it can be shut off letting agents don’t consider that an emergency so they’re getting my screwfix receipt as a bill. strangeangel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilA Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 I bought 3 new 4-foot led strip lights today. I had bought some switches and stuff a while back so went to get dug in putting it up. Can I find the Romex I bought a few years ago? Can I hell. The price of it has gone up too, which means running 30 feet of wire is in the $50 range. Why the hell copper got so ludicrously expensive?

Unless you find a creative use for it of course. To expand slightly.... Ordered a driveshaft for my Focus on 25/01 and it was despatched same day with bloody Hermes and due to be delivered 30/01 no sign of it and tracking just says it's with the local courier. I have a shaft off my spares car but doubt it's much better than the one that's on it. Shaft I'm supposed to be removing will not budge regardless of hammering so plan is to remove the hub and get it popped out by local friendly garage on their press, oh yeah...but the balljoint won't split so I have ordered a scissor type splitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am also surprised that countries such as China haven't been making fake/copy printers before now bundled with ink, as once used or tried they would be unreturnable.
