I'm imagining how much concrete was poured and how many diesel vehicles were involved in building that dirty power station, as well as how much fuel it will consume during its lifetime, every day of every month of every year until it's decommissioned. Then when I imagine the resources used to...

What is?

Is that aimed at me?

Think you're missing the point there... In your head, try replacing the smokestacks with wind turbines.

Seriously?...I've got drying paint to watch.

No... (aside from being human).

Who is Joe Wicks?

For the (rich) tool junkies...

Hate to say it, but you may well have been better leaving that in spilt lengths and painting the ends until you get a lathe. I suspect it's all going to split too badly to be of much use in a month or two's time... Hope I'm wrong.

6 wives at once - polygamy... Brief enough? :sneaky:

Builders or roofers? Not splitting hairs, they're different animals; and being a "professional" only means you get paid for what you do, not necessarily that you know how to do it. Also the roof above looks like it's man made slate, the same as the bit you want to replace, in which case the...

If not the flies, then how about the rods?

Well at the moment, you'd struggle t send anything by RM - their website has been unusable since 10 this morning. The damned thing is useless, going down at least once a month on average. I'd be surprised if they survive the next 5 years.

Shame - we keep chooks and wouldn't be without them, what with the sales of eggs off the gate, they even pay for themselves, but you're right, it's just getting to be a PITA with the new legislation. Luckily, we're a bit more used to it than some, as we have to deal with the paperwork for cows...

"About" was the key word there, also the "London" ...

And your point is still wrong - as Phil pointed out, in midwinter, the latest the sun rises (London) is about 8.04 GMT, and sets just after 4, with noon in the middle, where it belongs. The clocks wander away from GMT for the summer, which is why noon is at 1 pm in the middle of the year...

I have to confess to not having done the drawings for it.
