Last June my father in law died. When we cleared the house I found boxes and boxes of paracetamol. At the time I grumbled about him hoarding. This week, I have changed my tune as I have been able to ensure friends and family all have a good supply. Thanks Stan!

Thanks chaps, I had another look at it this morning (took a straight edge and spirit level with me this time!) and had come to the same conclusion before I read what you all had to say. Nice to get confirmation before committing to a spend.

I have started to refurbish my new bungalow. I want to fit a new front door but in a slightly different place to the current one. It will be (purists look away!) a composite door plus frame and fittings from a company I have used before. I have been here before, with a replacement one in my...

Who Are these “they” you people want to do all these extra tests? The Fairies from the bottom of the garden? Medics who are concentrating on seriously ill people to take samples instead? Medical scientists to perform the tests instead of life saving tests? All other life threatening illnesses...

If we get power cuts there is going to be a lot of food wasted. Electricity generation requires a lot of skilled people to keep it running and we have cut spare capacity to the bone.

Is there a cut out in there somewhere. They are common in these tools Some have a separate reset button on the bodywork. Maybe one on the motor itself Unplug before you start hunting for it

You could have made a few quid selling that image to the press.

You could start a WIP so the rest of us know what we are in for. Hope it ends up being mild, whatever it is.

Transatlantic, I very much doubt a games studio (please enlighten me as to what this is) deal with classified information.

Posters keep commenting about schools closing would effect nhs parents. Whilst no one disputes they are important people, we need lots of others at work. What about power station staff, or oxygen manufacturers just for two examples. Journalists and politicians keep going on about working from...

I would not do anything. If it is brand new, then the brushes should bed in and the sparking will subside.

The benefit of all this panic buying for the lurker household is we might destock our shelves. For example, the comment from TWW reminds me we have two tins of chick peas that are at least two years old.

You could stick some wet and dry to a bit of thin ply. Cast iron is surprisingly soft.

Your best hope is a auto jumble or a vintage car forum.

If Jeremy Unt says something, then I am fine with the exact opposite.

The China lockdown (enforced with a gun) would not work here. Appears to me that half the uk population have an inflated sense of entitlement, and think rules are fine....... but only for other people.

=D> :D Unless it’s man flu and you are drunk as well.

You will know when you get flu believe me!!! For at least 24 hours I wanted to die. I have only had it once and there were repercussions (with hindsight). My heart was effected (I thought for life) but after six months was well again.

The wife wanted to go, I wasn't that keen, but in the event I enjoyed it. Was very quiet yesterday, as was most of London .

Also went around fen church st sky garden, excellent and free. Well worth visiting if you are down that way. I was wondering if our very own George (when I'm cleaning winders) Formby with ropes, squeegee s there.
