Chemical seeps in round the edges and wuks its way in, somehow melts the glue on the stickers eye need to gerrof metal. Vynal plastic type. There's propper sticker removal chemicals but they can be er bit harsh. Some stink like 90's car paint.

She was flipperin lucky.. Appi Fridi peeps.

Yep, is a good idea. We had a spikey roller fing, but it wasn't easy to use and had a habit of jabbing me when bumbling about in me garridge. Smashing it up to stiff in the bin was a cathartic moment.. Tried and tested meffud is wif a trusty...

Wot does we fink about air rating yer grass? Edgar finks we should do it. Poking spikes in yer grass to help it. Yer can get spike fings that go on yer shoes. Spikes on poles or rolling fings wiv spikes. Does yer air rate yer grass?

Eye din't say it was illegal. It is against the water company rules/policy on how they want customers to restrict use of their water. Yer dun't have a supply contract, you have what each water company chooes to demand. They make it up as they go...

Wife's brother (the really 'orrible little creep) complains that the food wifey gets for her mother (that her Mum asks for and will not accept anything else) is "NOT GOOD ENOUGH, I don't like it, you need to get other stuff". Wifey is really...

That was something I didn't think of, sadly. :(

hot water is what was needed ...

Got sprinklers for me lawns as well but only use them at night :)

I've had a bit of a dig into this. It appears no umetered user is not allowed to use their tap water to water their garden or wash their car. BUT if they use "excess" water they may be charged. How they can tell who is doing this is not...

I had to make a "commode" for W until she got herself more sorted out. Just used a disabled toilet thingy she normally has over the loo in the bathroom, a plastic bin bag and a bucket in case the bag split. It worked a treat. You could put a bin...

Looks like that is just a cleaner/degreaser.Amazed it works. I know you can get stuff for removing decals etc, just didn't hunt it up as I was already doing the job albeit slowly. I have just looked on line and there is an awful lot of bollix...

That is a proper shame. Maybe if she tells her she would have to go into hospital unless she provides one and then stands over her( not literally) until she produces one? Sorry, we once had to provide a sample of dog's urine, that was a total...

Obvs in France watering the polytunnel and the rest of the veg garden is important, so we pump the water out of our suge tank that collects rainwater off all the roofs. We have to have a meter in Frogland as do all peeps and as in the UK they...

I have a full licence, not due to run out until 2027, if i apply for a one wiv a new photy on it then they cannot do me, I am allowed to drive without physically having the licence becorse they iz deeling wiv it. But I can't do that in France...

I did wish I could have found it, but I have lost it and couldn't be bothered emptying the garage only to find that I'd taken it to France. It is one of those things I only use once in a blue moon though you may remember I used a hair dryer...

You will be in trouble when the Tree Rat Non Molestation Bill passes. ;)

Get it out the manhole outside 😂😂😂 or put cling film over the pan 😯😯😯

Eye hassa new squirrel coming fer nuts regular. Several times each morning. Rarely see him. Eye keep replacing the nuts to gerrim to come back. Early days. Dropped some nuts out the window yesdi but he ain't realised worreye were doing. Continued...

Morning All. :D A shopping day. :( Wifey is having a terrible time getting a "sample" from the old gal. :( Despite writing it up in BIG LETTERS on a note on the door, the old baggage just ignores it all. :( The old gal has a nasty and...

Eye use this fer gerrin stickers oft metal. Found it at wuk. https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/degreasers/7805243

Did you try a hot air gun ?

No, I haven't got one either. Why? Well, because herself loves to spend an hour every day all Summer watering her garden.

When yer gorra meter yer pay fer wot yer use. If they put one in and yer dun't like it, yer can go back to normal billing. Meter satays in fer leak finding. Burrit depends on tge water company. Some force meter installs when a property sells...

Mornin Clear dry and sunny Volvo not selling might have to let it go cheap :( Bathroom inspector man agrees work is shoddy and I shouldn't have a leaky toilet Still not cut into truck bonnet, might tidy up and have a go today Stay productive...

Fink it were going to cause them too much trouble. Companies won't move to merka on a whim. Could yer imagine LR moving big freelander production to merka just to seeve their market. Factories need to run at full steam. That would leave sollyhull...

And yet again, the Trumpkin blinks first. It's all part of the master plan, obverously..
