Ere @kevstar , pickin up a free fridge this mornin.
I know is very low on the Tartan Steptoe scale (and no doubt you would have had it dropped at yours gratis anorl) but its a start!
Shame, we have a fridge freezer, tall one, going free at our place, at the mo it is full of cleaning products as we use it as a cupboard.
Bosch Avantix or summat, can't quite remember.
Doubtless it'll end up with some scrotes via "Freecycle" :rolleyes:
 
Had to look it up. Clemens and August.

Remember them gerrin mentionned in fools and horses. Del said "...Man at C and A."
Both I and the W used to buy stuff there. W bought her "interview suit" there, size 178 cms. It was used for her and both her daughters. And they all got jobs or into college with it! (Before I met her.)
So not just "Man at C&A" although I do remember the tag line! And I suddenly realised just before I was going off to do teaching practice, that I'd need a lot more smart togs, so I went and bought the lot from them. 1981.

Loved c&a got excited when I saw one in Amsterdam
 
Sneezy. Almost headbutted an exhaur bracket. Is it still ok to use brake cleaner on hands 😂😂
I would but them I'm a bit bonkers as we all know.
One tip I've only ever used once, but it does work.
If your hands are dirty with stuff off engines, i.e. mostly dirty oil, rub em with cooking oil or butter, it'll lift the dirt out, then wash as normal!
Leaves the hands lovely and soft.

(Youl'll ALL be trying this now! 🤣🤣🤣🤣)

I usually use persil powder and fairy liquid I just had lots of crap on me from removing the exhaust. But that's a good tip to keep in the bank
 
Keep getting mini powercuts, due to the wind. Puts tinternet off too for a fraction. so I have to get up, switch the burglar alarm off, reset the Sosh box (hub) etc.Right pain!
Did it during the night. about 3 a.m. alarm sounding in our ears, I went down and of course forgot that the keys to the cupboard with the alarm in it, and the key with the remote were upstairs on my bedside table!
 
The auction in Rongwood is on now. W forgot to look yessdi but informs me there is "no jewellery I am interested in"!
That's a flipping first.
But there is a Bang and Olufsen music centre, which we would have if we were there, for over here.
I'll have to have a wee peek.

EDIT. Not "Rongwood" I am not the gendarme from Nuvion!!
Jist a teepo!
