Me too. I have quite a collection of drawer slides sitting around doing nothing. Just need to source a cheap palm router...

Must admit, I lie awake at night worrying about the English lanuguage. Does that qualify as wokyness?

Except there's no apparent hinge or pivot point where you'd expect, the legs are blunt and imprecise, and you can see the slot where the spring of a Jew's harp used to be.

I tried to watch it, but find it impossible to ignore his political bias. I think he is a thoroughly odious individual. Albeit a very clever one.

I'm no expert, but I believe you can get away with battens and avoid buying plastic trim.

I'd try to get a couple of alternative quotes. I just did our 12 x 5 shed, took a couple of hours. I am a bit younger at 71. Having said that, I frequently hear good things about EPDM. The shed we just erected was a kit, and came with the felt supplied.

+1 Although "musical" is questionable..

You make a good point, but to be honest, I just feel we have to get rid of the current Tory shower. They seem to sink to new depths of incompetence and corruption the longer they're in power. Crazy how Teresa May looks positively statesmanlike when put up beside Johnson, Truss and Sunak. I...

Thanks everyone. I'll keep looking for a lead offcut, and think about other options in the meantime. There's no hurry, as we probably won't be using logs for a few months.

Surely all parties win by default, being considered the lesser of two evils. As the the argument about stability, and the new government (let's hope..) not knowing what to do, if you believe that then we'd just have the one party in power for ever. Although, reading your posts, I suspect that's...

I'm not trying to seal or fix it to the wall(it's Cotswold mudstone, so fat chance..), just want to cover the "vertical" seams and the nails of the top course. If I can't find a lead offcut(only need 1.9m) at a reasonable price I might just use flashband. P.S. Maybe "flashing" is the wrong term.

Maybe. Was hoping for something a bit cheaper...

What have you got against lawn tennis, for heaven's snakes?

Maybe there was originally stuff in feng-shui that made sense, but most of it seems to be total BS. On a level with tarot cards, homeopathy and religion. In my opinion.

Just moved our ancient log store, and replaced the rotting featheredge roof with slate. Not sure how to finish the high side back edge. It's free standing, so I was thinking that some sort of unequal angle thin aluminium would do, might look neater than lead(possibly cheaper too), but don't know...

As I thought I understood it, the Fibonacci series is simply adding the nth and n-1th term to derive the n+1th term. If continued for a while the ratio of two consecutive terms approaches the so-called golden mean or ratio. The big mystery to me is why such a ratio or proportion should be...

I think we've done that already.

A lot of so-called "wealth creators" create wealth in the same way that a magnet creates iron filings, or a picnic creates wasps. In my opinion.

So let's invite all the drug barons to live in London too. What a silly argument, in my opinion.

I agree. So is Moby ****, for that matter, although fictional..
