Morning All. :D A much cooler morning today. :( Have a splendid day. :D

Ma ippo's built fer being a trusty 4x4.

Well they priced the job and I didnt try and haggle the price, so I guess they earn what they earn. Price is all relavant though isnt it. A packet of fags is less than £3, a six pack of beer is less than £3 so to sustain a worker is pretty cheap...

That one is for 40mm pipe. You can get one for 32mm pipe. Like this one ---- https://www.screwfix.com/p/floplast-wc10-universal-compression-waste-bend-90-32mm/90571

You use your FL to harvest water?? Oh well, you finally found a use for it :p

When eye fits me water harvester fing to me drain pipe eye need ter run the output along me castle wall, over the top of 4 foot of gate and fence, to me garage guttering. Output on said harvester is 32mm at the end. Tis a slowly tapering fing...

Fink I'll give that one a miss tbh.

Well here where I live it's a minimum £150/day per man.

Snot broked any more, I put a 25T shackle on it nearly good as new. Come to think about it I didnt test it, weapon of choice was the sheer for the afternoons destruction. :D:D

I think we will be okay, two adults both with two pensions, plus one house possibly two to rent out, of course if she leaves me that will all change!

Many moons ago we went to see an ifa for our first mortgage, he was a huge round man called Alan Middleton Stewart, and I really liked the bloke gave good advice, and yes he had a large house in a lot of ground with a very nice car! The co he...

I have my doubts being mid 50s is even worth adding/starting to any pension. Recently changed job and decided I am not starting another pension at 56. I think existing ones means I will be able to retire early and keep afloat until state pension...

I did worry about this. so checked into it. Nowadays, they don't make a killing but I think that back in the 80s they must have made more. Speaking as one who got his fingers burnt in the "low cost endowment " farce.

If you want to have a look at a useless website, try the Teacher's Pensions one. Can I log on to it? Can I flip. They keep sending me codes that don't work.:mad::mad::mad:

My pleasure, do take pics for us all!! ;):)

I move 1 mm to the left!!

What if you've just eaten a curlywurly and half a yorkie bar???

To me they are incredibly complicated and something I think might be a good idea may cost me badly. Until I paid the mortgage off I couldn't really pay in enough but now I have some money spare I have found I can't pay in more. Something to do...

You'd never be able to drain through the filler hole I don't think. But the weld-a-nut-to-the-plug idea isn't new. Somewhere I have a book that goes back to the dawn of time on welding that mentions all sorts of ways of using a welder to do just...

If you are quite happy with your current pension and how much it will give you, for what you pay in, then why not set up a separate 2nd pension?

By what standard? J

Me harvester arrived. Well pleased wivvit. Pulls apart to clean easily. Metal filter inside. Just like a Freelander built fer the job and good at wot it does.

But they is "cheap"...yes?

Don't know the D4, but is there no chance of draining the sump via the dipstick hole? I have been doing this on my D2 for a number of years for precisely the same problem as you have. It works fine, if a little tedious. No one seems to have...

Perish the thort!! 🤣 🤣 🤣

Ive never wore anything under me kilt & no I wont be showing ye. :p

oooops.......
