A girl in overalls... And a nice young lady in dungarees.

I think you're right, so long as the spindle is pushing the wheel round, like on your car. Whereas, on the alternator the pulley is pushing the spindle. Pushbike pedals are another thing.. 🤪

Lots of left right left rights going on tis like dads army in err.

My 3 words........ Spontaneous bolt loosening. Another 2 words... Case closed !!!!

Why did the chicken cross the road........

You married it. 🤣🤣

Morning All. :D Funeral was fine, very well done to all. :) Awful day & night, as I appear to have gout in the big toe on the right foot. :( May try to get to the Drs. for some meds. :) Have a good day. :D

I don't know if I'll be able to explain it to you in my present state of wine induced affluence of incohol!! Imagine you have a thing, like a pulley wheel, or an adaptor for a splined wire wheel, which is going to be turning anti-clockwise as...

I thort "doon the toon" was going to be quiet but I fell in with a crowd of very interesting folk, to the point that I had to shoot off to get up here to make a WhatsApp call to a mate, who, it turned out, had completely forgottid about it! Still...

Sorry Stan this makes no sense to me at all. With a CW or RH thread, if the thing it holds in p!ace is turning in the 'tighter' direction how can the opposite work? Hence LH threads on NS axles.. Or not, as your numpty mate found out.. Edit...

OK, I'm bored! @kevstar jump on and amuse me, plese! 🤣

And when thay do it's like pot holes always a bodg lots of the main supply pipelines are constructed from asbestos (post war ) when disturbed thay leak every where these are the reasons for not fixing leaks as the jobs just snowball

Did you know? (and not a lot of people know this) that Stirling Moss's dad wouldn't let him drive a car around the estate until he could do it in reverse. Fun factoid, I am full of it them tonight!!🤣🤣🤣

Fink I'd better get changed and go "doon the toon" to buy some "Caillés". Producers' market on tonight but I don't fancy it on my own, although I may change my mind and stay depending on who I see there. Anyway we/I have large amounts of...

Planning for a 50 acer reservoir is a bit different to permitted development and putting a plastic green house on the back ov yer castle. A new reservoir pushes wildlife out the way and destroys the abby tat permanently. Tis not naturally there.

very good for the environment no life with out water sit and observe, wild life increases 10 fold ,most planning laws now are very limited, you can extend your home without planning consent! !

That would work!!! Italian Tank and all that!!!

All good and MOTed the tester said its a pleasure to work on such a well built car , he commented that he failed 2 FLs last week due to rust and bits falling of I nearly choked for laughter 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁 Solved the problem, drive in reverse all the...

The big leaks are economical to fix. They won't get smaller unless they run out of water.

I'm on about the bigger leaks, the ones that aren't economical to fix

The big problem is the people accepting it. But they think It shounldnt be on thier doorstep. We need more water, or you stop using it, if you have none that would change (your personal enviroment alot). But people will object to a resivour...

Mines easy to do. Call them or report it online. Gorra get the right company responsible for the location. There will be priority fer wot reports come in. Ours gives feedback if they find it or call to ask fer more info if they can't.

Peeps on my local "Nextdoor" are always reporting leaks and often nothing gets done at all. A lot of our area is not supplied by Bournemuff Water.

I never understood the clamp fit on a rotation thing. taper and keyed, or at least keyed. I guess its a cost thing designed by young engingeers. But that leaves us poor souls popping our eyes out (or worse) to do things up tight, then another...
