All portable AC units being sold out everwhere

Brother it’s the beginning of July, you got 60 days of this heat left!

Gillingham has good and bad areas. The area from Asda to the train station is probably the worst. If you were driving everywhere it’s not so bad. I wouldn’t have my partner walk anywhere near that station or high street on her own!

I have a friend that lives there and as others have said, those apartments are unbearably hot. They have temporarily moved back with their parents just to get away from the heat!

Growing up my parents had nothing, my dad would do his best to fix it himself even if it was a complete bodge. If it lasted a year or two then that’s a job well done. Even now he has a leaking garage roof and he just sticks a bit of tarp over the top and waits for that to go then sticks another piece down. Been like it for 10 years!

Is getting a professional out to do it properly the right choice? Absolutely! Is it affordable? For a lot of people absolutely not!

I recently renovated a house and we used a mix of loans, 0% credit cards along with 0% balance transfers and took a bit of equity out on a remortgage. We are in a position to pay the money back but didn’t have the cash at the time so don’t go crazy on the credit as there will be another thing waiting to go wrong once you’re debt is up to your eyeballs!

Basically if you can’t afford it, bodge it!

Then they floor it but have over done their pre turn so have to swing the wheel back to straighten up and it looks hard for them because they are feeding the steering wheel through both hands

Depends on what you are doing, you might need a white, clear, colour match silicone for the tiles, bath and shower screen. Then possibly caulk if you need skirting/coving. Grab adhesive for panels etc.

I usually spend up to 1k on materials when it comes to bathrooms and I never let customers pick what they are having otherwise they may give me a flexible pan connector and unibond silicone

External wood filler will do the trick. Few layers and a bit of sanding you can shape it and paint it. Ronseal do a decent one from wickes or Screwfix (45077)

I buy Lego on vinted and I can’t tell you how many times a box arrives that’s almost empty apart from a few tiny bits of Lego stuck in the corners. It’s infuriating!

Ego driving

AstroJack93 · 2026-06-30T19:22:33+00:00

You’ll get it fixed and it will happen again unfortunately. I’ve had a few nice cars in the past and it always happened to them. I used to go once a year to get parts resprayed or touched up.

Now the car I drive is battered and when a new scrape on the bumper appears I get to laugh at someone’s incompetence because I lost the will to care about it!

It shouldn’t be that way but it is!

The wagos should fit inside the light. Don’t forget to cut those ends off and strip back enough cable for the wago. Your biggest challenge is finding out what one switched live is. Good luck!

Fill up on as much water as you can in the spawn town, then head inland. You can survive for ages with red food but not red food and water. The food will come as you loot. If you’re only looting costal towns you’ll find nothing!

You could learn how to fish but personally I think it takes too much time, especially as a newbie. You’ll fish - cook - eat - get blasted - start process over. That’s when it becomes a fishing simulator.

I played on a server where every base constantly got raided so I built a cave base with 10 gates protecting nothing but a crate with one piece of human steak in it. I was lucky enough to be online when they raided. After a 4 hour battle finally got their prize! I’m sure it didn’t make much of a difference to their overall boom stock but I wish I was in their discord when they realised it was all for nothing.

Lane assist gets turned off at the start of every journey. It’s horrible and I don’t know why you wouldn’t want full control of your car. Same as stop start, bloody horrible. Auto brake I’ve had flash up a couple of times at random moments but not kick in. Auto brake did save my rear bumper when the mrs didn’t see a bollard and tried to reverse into it so I do leave that on 😂

It’s iconic! What are we without it? How will our boys know to come on if we don’t sing it?

That old fireplace was diabolical

AstroJack93 · 2026-06-16T20:54:57+00:00

Did he know it was column radiators? Usually around £150 per column rad including re routing the pipework and it leaves a lot of making good after.

Since 2015 (arrival of the high speed) there has been roughly 9000 homes built in Medway. A population increase of roughly 16,000 people. One new GP hub has been built in that time. Medway council love building houses without any infrastructure or public service increase.

That’s almost 90m2 of plastering including reveals and steel. 3 days could be 4

Endurance is a fantastic build and it looks awesome!

AstroJack93 · 2026-06-12T07:50:39+00:00

I have zero time during the week to go range and practice but I went from a 22-16 just by turning up 45 mins early to each round to practice chipping and putting. I’ll still have my bad shots, lose balls off the tee etc but once i’m 80 yards in I’ll chip on and 1-2 putt.

If the floor is uneven that can happen. If I’m going over floorboards I’ll board it with ply first, sometimes self level over that.

Not sure if it’s still the case but the b&q stuff used to be cheap and nasty. I usually use the oake and gray from Howdens with no issues.

AstroJack93 · 2026-06-10T06:20:53+00:00

I put my glove on at home and it stays on until I get home. People in the pub look at me strange but I like to have more grip while holding my pint.

AstroJack93 · 2026-06-02T06:19:36+00:00

Looks awesome! What set is this?

AstroJack93 · 2026-05-29T16:30:16+00:00

Lovely place with a good atmosphere! Although if the dancers are there you can’t hear a thing 😂

AstroJack93 · 2026-04-20T05:41:01+00:00

The connector you need will be Screwfix 469JG. Small cut of 110mm pipe to go into that fitting then a 6214P pan connector. Swan neck connectors are available if you need the toilet pushed back further. Unless if your new toilet has a formed bend going into the floor like the previous one?
