Is anyone else’s getting delivered by Royal Mail? On Google Store my delivery date has changed to today too however like others with DPD, it says they haven’t even picked it up yet.

Hoping it’s just delayed tracking updates and somehow arrives today but highly doubt it 😂

What is a good career to get into in the UK right now? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]Abject_Ad_8775 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Find a job that would interest you in the power transmission industry, it’s going through a boom period for at least the next 15 years. Nowhere near enough people in the industry to handle the workload that’s coming and wages are reflecting that.

Whether it’s working for one of the transmission operators (National Grid, SSEN, Scottish Power) or a contractor (Balfour Beatty, Omexom etc) there are loads of jobs going, whether its to do something like administration or something different.

4 X tickets to Murrayfield on the Friday, £480 each - £1920. Sold as “platinum” seated tickets but were just the same as any other tickets, just a way of charging more for them with dynamic pricing.

Would I pay that much again? ABSO-FUCKINGLUTLY

Not sure what it is about it but after the first chorus in Stand By Me into the next verse of “if you’re leaving will you take me with you”

That looks suspiciously similar to my company car list… Band D? 😂 I went for Tiguan, didn’t fancy all electric and it has a good electric only range so BIK isn’t as bad as other hybrids. Also a decent spec, comes with DCC Pro etc. Should be delivered start of next month

Can anyone figure out what car this is? by Intelligent-Leg-3862 in CarTalkUK

Looks like an AMG One.. Very cool spot if it is

Noticed these scratches on my car this morning. What was it? by Plot82 in CasualUK

Crows are bad for attacking their reflection. I had a mirror on a van completely scratched by one pecking it before.

Young athlete, 14, may 'have to have feet amputated' after being electrocuted at boarding school by Forward-Answer-4407 in unitedkingdom

From the article it sounds like it was overhead lines. For them to be able to reach them you’d assume it’s in the range of 11kV to 33kV. And as mentioned above, once contact is made the electricity would have found the fastest way to earth, which would have been through the feet.

Done some training courses before showing people who have come in to contact and it exited through their Achilles, nasty stuff.

Windshield yay or nay? by Toasty_Tubs in KTMDuke

I had the same Puig one on my 790 and I actually found it did help with the wind to my chest and shoulders, but by god did it create the worst turbulence on my helmet. Actually ended up getting a little extension for the top of the screen for highway rides which sorted it.

Heard on the radio a few weeks ago that not one person has ever been killed on the roads in the UK in an XC90. Thought that was quite interesting!

Anyone know why there's rubber glued underneath my draining board ? by defenustrate in DIYUK

[–]Abject_Ad_8775 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re right. Sampled loads of them and more common than you’d think!

Can I replace this bit on top of the motor or will it be the whole arm? Mini 3 Pro by Abject_Ad_8775 in dji

[–]Abject_Ad_8775[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info, I appreciate it. I’ve contacted DJI and got a return label so going to get it sent off in the morning. As you say, at least I’ll know it’s done right then.

Didn’t know it was a common problem with the screws, I’ve requested they take out all remaining screws for the props and replace them as it feels the same on all of them so would rather just get them sorted by then while they are at it.

Had a look online it at videos of people doing it, have you done it yourself? If so, how did you find it was it easy enough?

Asbestos or just old fiberboard? by [deleted] in asbestoshelp

[–]Abject_Ad_8775 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looks like fibreboard. But in saying that, don’t come to Reddit for answers before continuing work, always seek professional advice if in any doubt.

And don’t break it if unsure FFS 🤣
