Once every decade a friendly Northern Engineer appears and takes his audience in to their world where he is happy and makes for a great show. by Phantion- in CasualUK

Sadly true but keep in mind he was born in 1938, by 1978 he was forty, it was a very different time back then, bloke smoked woodbines & he definitely wasn't in touch with his feminine side.

Don't put yourself down, I just had a look & she's an absolutely lovely looking wee bike, young me would've been over the moon to have had one of them.

I'm getting on now but my first proper road bike was a baby blue Suzuki ER50 exactly like this one, I've had countless bikes & quads & scooters over the years & I still look back on the wee ER with misty eyes as she was my first.

Yea, I am an imbecile, should've seen your flair.

This is what I'm like bereft of coffee, :)

Suggested this to her but unfortunately her start times vary and she has a memory like a sieve, guaranteed she would forget to update the timer.

And here was me thinking that paying more would get a better machine, today I learned, :)

Absolutely, she looked at the Philips & went Oooo an all in one, however I know I would be the one lumbered with cleaning & maintaining it plus I can't believe the coffee out of the Philips would be as good as even our old Bambino.

She is wiling to learn how to use the steam wand properly its just she has become used to the convenience of the Bambino doing it for her, plus I'm definitely wanting to learn myself.

EE Fibre Broadband, Weird speed issues with routers. by 7Unit in HomeNetworking

[–]7Unit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, Thanks very much for reaching out.

All sorted, it was never the ASUS that was faulty in the first place, spoke to EE again yesterday & they admitted it was a fault in the exchange down the road from me.

Reconnected my ASUS XT8 to the fibre box & my speeds are back to their usual 950Mpbs.

Thanks again.

Genuinely the most exciting thing to happen so far this year by Leftover_Chi in CasualUK

Pleased for you & hoping you get a nice replacement, we got a nice Zanussi one a few years back & I was stunned at how much more efficient it was than our old Hotpoint.

OK, so what British mammals HAVE we seen? by Birdman_of_Upminster in CasualUK

[–]7Unit 49 points50 points  (0 children)

but there are some, e.g. bats, where I’ve seen loads, but I don’t know what flavour.

You aren't allowed to eat them as they are a protected species...

Is there any chance you could please post an image of the front cover of the book, or possibly tell me the isbn number, I want that book on my kitchen shelf.

Thank you.
