One of our neighbours bought slabs to go round their pool expressly so they'd be non-slip. They are lethal I nearly slipped over myself once. How can they do that?When it was first laid it was great and Yes not slippy

Mildly happier over the last few days. Once this heat dies down it will be super
Been putting water repellent on the caravan today, bloody hot but best time to do it, had it four years and this is the first time I've treated it, lovely dry little caravan and sleeps six when all folded out, it's like a pop up book and folds away neatly. Hopefully be out in August for a weekend at the Astle Park traction rally

If I didn't wave back I was probably doing in excess of 25mph and it's too dangerous to only have one hand on the steering wheel at those sorts of speeds. I was on me way to Hereford or on the way back or lostI did wave

Yesdi's operation hotfix card board trick went ok. Not too sure how much it restricted heat going int as eye weren't there to feel the window int side. One strip of card felled oft. I has been finking more about this after measuring the temp oat side and int side. It can measure the same but feels cooler oat side assit's moving air. The moving bit makes it feel cooler when it ain't. So that has got me finking. Me air sucker was sucking hot air out. When yer int baff, adding cold water makes a biggerer change sooner than adding hot. So am gonner suck cold air int from oat side in stead. Eye put some mesh over me fan this morning so it din't suck int the flying bastids. Did ok but could do wiv a biggerer fan. But eye is still eggsperimenting.

Good evening from Wiltshire
I’m home for an extra few days.
No grass to cut,trees to prune or family to annoy me.
I do have 2 weddings to go to so I will once again have to be on good behaviour & remember how to converse with people face to face.

You're only saying that.It's never the wrong time to seek revenge on the magpies. For me, all's fair in love and war and in this case it is definitely war. I hate the things!
They are also god's creatures just like the K9's and they do have a place in this world. Just not anywhere near you.

Don't get me wrong...they are awful thieving things (as Rossini said).I dunt like em neever, they robs the nests of ickle birds, make a fonk awful din, an are..um..generally shifty. Bastids.
And yes they are predators of our lovely little songbirds. Ladder-traps and a wrung-neck is a cure.

Well last night's trick worked, let's hope i works again tonight.
Shut the bedroom door, opened the door out onto the loggia (Posh, eh?)
And opened the window which has mosquito netting covering it.
Left it a good long while to cool down with the light off.
Went upstairs later in the dark. Took a deep breath in, opened the door went in and shut it behind me, closed the loggia door, then popped the light on, breathed normally, closed the window and sprayed the room with fly spray. There were two flies visible, that was all. Nothing alive when we went to bed!
Same this evening, just went up to the room, and again only two flies visible.
So crossed fingers.

You are correct and that is why I have made arrangements for them to be re-homed with @Wimblowdriver in exchange for his wood pigeons (don't tell him that woodpigeons don't live round 'ere 'cos we don't 'ave the right habitat).You're only saying that.
