I've had my Jura bean to cup machine for over 11 years now. 17,000+ coffees later it's still going strong. I'm English. 😉

Interesting thread. My take on it is, I receive parcels and not only do I not know what is in them, I don't even remember ordering anything! It's such a nice surprise when I reveal the contents 😄

Receipts, photographs and a list/spreadsheet. What is amazing is how much it all adds up to!

Exactly. Can you imagine that with a car? Especially if most of the time we are sharing with someone we don’t know

You're a jolly old soul ;)

Especially if you burn their house down! Seriously, I wouldn’t plug my EV charger Into any random 3 pin socket without having had it professionally checked as safe. You are plugging the equivalent of a 2kw+ heater into the socket at full blast for potentially a number of hours. And don’t use an...

We could adopt the same principle for washing machines & tumble dryers. They sit idle for hours on end, so why not have a central location of washing machines & table dryers open to the general public? And then what about tools? Woodworking tools for example, that spend hours on end, idle in a...

Brilliant :ROFLMAO: I had a bag today and that sums it up!

Yep, been with them years, called out once no problem. It was a local garage.

Ha ha, too late for getting old ;) I had exactly the same situation with our Kenwood that we got as a wedding present (very old). In the end we didn't go ahead for no other reason than we got over the nostalgia! But here are the details anyway: http://www.kenwoodchefrestore.co.uk

35 years in IT here. Daily Dilbert made me realise I was not on another planet!

I couldn’t see who “the authors” are? Did I miss that? Edit: I did, it’s Absolute Zero

There was a TV program on the other day with subtitles, I forget what it was. Anyway there was prolific use of the “F” word verbally. The fascinating thing was, you clearly heard the “F” word spoken every time but the subtitle presented it as “f**k”. A strange world we live in!

I’m not sure this is a modern day problem. British Leyland?

So apart from the engine, is it OK?

Careful you don’t have to pay tax on the “income”.

Be prepared for it to come back. 7 years later I’m still on it. What seems to work is if it comes back wait till it forms a reasonable stem, cut the stem and inject systemic weed killer into the hollow stem. It seems to work but I’ve only just discovered this a year or so ago. Hideous stuff 😤

Ha, I was doing similar in the late 60’s. It was saltpetre, sulphur and ground up charcoal then, all supplied in a chemistry set I got for Christmas. 😲
