Hippo's latest activity

She's only flown over for a consultation which takes place tomoz. Then she'll be back early the follwoing morning. The op isn't until the 29th. Hope the flight will be bettern her one out. Her plane was massively delayed due to the original one...

Brace yourself. But then I guess as W is away, being prodded you have a lot of internet time available in the evenings :). Hope all goes well with W by the way whens she due back? J

Maybe a bit of bushing and then making a key for it??? Would call for more precision than I could manage with the tools I have, in either country. Is it a Bird, is it a Plane?? No it is Superbodger!!!!!! (Who uses spots of weld to secure the...

Oh no, much better leave it up, I love it when Kev gets going!!! 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

I understand threads on Knock on stub axles, and other applications. You missed the whole point of my quote about "wheels going in opposite directions" :D you better edit that quick before Kev gets hold of it:oops:. J

From the Morris Minor Owners' club. For exactly the same reason, but they didn't usually run with knock-ons!! I see what you are getting at, yes the inertia of the loose pulley could inadvertently work against everything.

Mornin Sunny but cooler than of late 🙂 Off for lunch with Brother and sister After sorting car insurance for the Yeti that is :confused: Get it through the winter then give it away I think :D Enjoy the cooler weather all 🙂

Wheels go in oposite directions as you go down the road🤔🤔🤔. Yep conclusion edit incoming:D I had a little think about this with my little bit of Newtons elbow thought I have left. The pulley not being keyed could be the key reason (see what i...

+1 mate.:)

Public out cry will help. But water companies have know fer years how difficult it is to get planning permission to pass. Hence why their desire to build a new res, wurnt apempted. Its quite damaging to the environment assit wipes it all out when...

Accoding to t'news, they are about to open a new one somewhere, or start building it, or summat. Need to research it a bit more. We are lucky in that Bournemouth Water (as was, now bought up) keeps finding new ways to store water so we don't...

Hope the day goes off with no issue. Sad day. Keep calm Dan :). J

It depends on which way you are looking at the pulley when you describe its turning direction. Looking face on to the pulley and the nut, you want the nut turning in the opposite direction to the pulley as you are looking at it to ensure it...

That suggests they dunt fix any. They is always fixing them. Finding them is the difficult bit. Easy on the surface if water appears and someone reports it. More difficult if the leak stays under ground.

Maybe they should fix some of the leaks then

Morning All. :D The great day is here. Off to the Crem at 3pm and the ensuing wake till c. 9pm. :) I have promised there will be no fights (well not from me anyway). Have a great day. :D

Should be the other way round getting a virus from a FL 😕

Two being built at presant but Havantthicket completion 2029 Lancaster 2040 !!!!!

Which backs up wot eye said. Thicket was being finked about for a decade before the planning application was submitted.

They were talking about it here, I think its to rain tomorrow.

E's got your teef.

Depends on if they chucked wood if they were a wood chucker, if they didnt chuck wood then they wood not be a chucker. Wood they...

Yer mean run fast. Thas cos we got powerrrr.

Tratters don't do anything fast. Unlike FL's which rust fast.

Been on iPhone for 15+ years and never had a problem with their security

I think one is currently under construction near Portsmouth.

Apple don't need them, already built in. :cool: No need for extras.

Tis near impossible to build a reservoir int uk. Too much opposition. Water companies have plans to do it but can't. In light ov the media coverage there may be a bit more public support int future.

Just another day doing whatever you want 😃😃
