Just thought, if you called it a dutch cap would it make the mail come quicker?Just discovered that the Scroofix website does actually know that me Islands got a store but I have to use the postcode rather than town or Island.
Me diafram has been ordered so I should be able to collect it tomorra
Couldn't agree more.I think this situation is a perfect example that the younger generation are simply unable to comprehend the situation of a pandemic. Stick to your guns, it is time they began to think and solve difficulties for themselves, it is only by doing this that they are going to learn.
At the risk of being even more boring than usual, tis the lack of pre-frontal cortex development, which is only to be expected, in the young. but in the old it is sheer bloodymindedness, or stupidity.

Then just order the whole valve mechanism, and a new isolating valve, off amazon or someone, like this.Damn....
After driving 40 miles to collect me diafram washer and then fitting it the inlet mechanism is still leaking very slightly and given the pressure of the water it's making a hissing noise inside the cistern. Whatever is causing the leak is very small as the water is coming out the form of a fine mist. I think there's more wrong with this than just a knackered rubber washer.
I might have to call a plumbder because if I start messing any more I'm bound to make it worse.

I overslept AGAIN
The little buzzer thingy in my watch normally wakes me up, how I slept right through it I don't know, it is annoyingly persistent for a good 20 seconds.
Damp and cold out there, so I am staying in here.
Have a great day everyone.

Done me some plumdering this mornin.
The cistern did come away from the basin so access to the fill valve was easy. Ordered a new one from scroofix

Mine goes off at 7.03am precisely, every day and in the summer it is 6.05am. How he knows the time with such precision I do not know but if I don't get up he will get his nose under my hand, arm etc, in fact any bit that is sticking out of the duvet, and 'throw' it up in the air with a very powerful thrust - he wants to go out!
