Was the storm over there as bad as sky news portrayed it very mild by us for the time of year . 5c at the moment outside working on the generator to day think the glowplugs are knackered hope that's all fingers crossed

Disastrous. A few bins got blowed over and litter flew about a bit.

I'm not sure which is worst;
Wash the cans out - extra load on the sewage works and pollution to the waterways - oxygen taken from the water.
Don't wash the cans out - metal goes for scrap and extra pollution goes into the atmosphere when the remains of the contents gets incinerated.

Eye wash me cans after doing me plates so no extra water needed. If recycling material is dirty it has less value in recycling.

Today's bean cans - tomorrow's land rovers.

Morning All
Went to the dentists as per the appointment 08:00 only to find they have moved it out again (3rd time) to next MAY!!
Shocking state of NHS dentistry.
Still, it was only a check-up, I have no issues that I know of.
I hope you all have a lovely day!

Like us, you are so lucky to still have an NHS dentist.

For us, the temperature is not the problem - has been between 8 and 12 degrees every day - but the wind has been very strong and gusty.

The wind always makes me a bit restless and edged

I'm very pleased to hear you have a new lathe coming. What did you go for in the end?

I still think a new lathe deserves a new shed. I'm sure they'll let you squeeze another one into the back garden under 'permitted development'.

It will (if it ever gets here) be a BoxFord AUD. So it is quite small (but heavy @ 256Kg).
Shiply have failed totally, the bidder just did not understand what he was quoting for (despite all the info given) and so walked away. Very frustrating. I can't get it myself, its too big for the Rangie and I cannot lift 256Kg anyway.
Quotes are coming in at £350 to move it 68 miles.
