Well, I would say that it's an offer not to be sneezed at :shock: :shock:

I think that there must be a mole on the forum that keeps steering the thread away from the original subject of ants :?

So what, I make water every day, several times a day. I can also turn god trad English beer into Britfiz larger and wine into water. Mind you they could help with the population crisis by mixing Ganges water with a local supply and poison half a country. Any ideas as to how they keep a strait...

Well, I think that it will be quite poplar? Oak a, it's slightly damaged but you would have to teak as you find it. I'm not a fan of motos either but it woodworm its way into a lot of peoples hearts me-thinks? Shame there's not two then it would be a pear.

We get loads in our garden and they don't like liquid washing up soap in their eyes!! Boiling water looses the temp almost as soon as it hits the soil and provides them with a nice handy on site water supply, but once again, chuck some soap in it and it destroys their waxy coating a drowns the...

The Mexican maid asked for a pay increase The wife was very upset about this, and decided to talk to her about the raise. She asked: "Now Maria, why do you want a pay increase?" Maria : "Well, Señora, there are tree reasons why I wanna increaze." "The first is that I iron better than you." Wife...

We have a problem Huston :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: The follow on video should give a chuckle too!! What a dose!

That reminds me of a situation when I first joined IBM and was on my 3 month basic course and we were housed in the Penta Hotel in London. A right hole but OK. There was as mall underground car park and some woman with a Hillman Imp used to park her car smack on the white line between 2 spaces...

Going back on topic. I only have one slide rule. Not quite pocket size at about 18" long it is a Pilot Balloon slide rule with 2 slides. It does all the normal plus Sine/Cosine and Tangent. I acquired (?) it in the late 50s when I had a part time job with a west London surplus place. J J Hicks...

Just for those of us wot missed it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXSh8y8guDc A very subtle approach ??? :roll: :roll: :roll:

It's hell here too! I had to put a 't' shirt on this morning for the first time for weeks, I mean 20ºC at 8 'o' clock in July is just not on! I too love the hot heat and the pool is a nice 29/30º, but I admit that not much gets done in the garden or my workshop when it gets to the mid 30s...

I gave up shaving in 1973, a year before I came out of the R.A.F. and was the only Sgt in the Sgts Mess at Brize with a hairy fizzog. Being a bit of a rebel I really enjoyed that! 8) But I have had one of these for more years than I can remember and used it when I did shave. It was good...

Is there any particular reason for having a screen saver? Because as has been said it isn't really needed on non CRT screens. With both our MacBook Pro and 22 1/2" iMac it is set for the screen to go into sleep mode after 15 minutes and the system to sleep after about 20 minutes. That saves...

Always remember Robbo that anyone who tells you that they are a born flyer is a born liar and even birds have to learn to fly. In other words anything that we do we have to learn how to and the only real way is by YOUR mastikes. I'm one of the lucky ones that never makes mastikes :? I fthe...

Worse than that, it could well finish up with Robbo having a bowl movement :shock: :shock:

No way Chas.. Now there is a new towel ring for him :mrgreen: :mrgreen: All that's needed now is the wall bracket :?

"How would you hold the bowl whilst threading it though ?" Very carefully :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

That looks as if you have a fairly thick base there? How can you put a screw thread in something just 1/16" thick? Great idea for putting contrasting woods together though..

On the occasions where I have got too enthusiastic and done the funnel trick I have turned a tapered hole if the bottom, then turned a flat cone, to match and fit flush with the outside bottom, in a bit of contrasting wood and glued it in place. Then turned the bit protruding into the bowl flush...
