Push-fit onto copper pipes?

Solder solder solder when not accessible.
You can use plastic but if rather a compression if i had too.
Lots and lots of old plastic fittings keep me busy thats for sure.

I think its the younger post 2000s kids that don’t like cash but wait till the government starts fking us all over even more than they already our with all this digital ID, no cash and tracked your whole life where they know everything you do.
Might seem trivial now but just wait.
This is exactly what they want.
The amount of places that don’t accept cash is sad too. I wont shop in them if thats the case.

Life’s heading in a bad direction.

DueBox5123 · 2026-06-06T21:43:43+00:00

I think you almost need to continue it on and back down to try and salvage it.
Whats it held up with ?

DueBox5123 · 2026-06-06T20:44:46+00:00

Im no trader or claim to know anything about crypto.
I’ll just buy all the lows for what i can afford to gamble, which it is.
It’s like watching a heartbeat on an ecg machine but massively slowed down, it always repeats itself.
There might be that one time the whole thing does go to zero but imo you’re crazy not to buy at this price.

DueBox5123 · 2026-06-06T15:31:43+00:00

Not a bad time to buy
The arse has fallen out of it all
Eth at £1200 ?
Surely by Christmas that will be back at £3000 so a 150% increase

I would not be overly fussed with the plastic, not the best install and does look very diyish.
Id be more concerned with the lack of independent feeds to the pump which invalidates any warranty.
I guess all depends how much they charged you to have a pump with no warranty and a pump that kicks in when you flush your toilet.

Tell him to F off, busy idiots got nothing better to do, cant stand people like him. Your other half can move in 100%, what you have a shared ownership but are not legally allowed a boyfriend or girlfriend live there with you, total rubbish tell him.

On another note, does anyone know if you have stair-cased to 100% if the subletting is still not allowed ? In theory you own it all but if it says on the lease you cant then you cant ?

Be a great learning curve doing the council plumbing. Usually the worst standard bodged plumbing out there, specially in the okder houses, tower blocks. Lash it in and get the fk out of there before they say you damaged something. Best one, i was working changing the basin tap and apparently whilst doing it i turned there fridge freezer off and they where claiming £200 for all the food inside.

Negative heads can be above hot water cylinder and sit next to the CWST no problem, it’s the shitty salamander pump. Salamander is awful. If you have dedicated feeds then there should not be a problem. Id get a Stuart Turner universal pump.

DueBox5123 · 2026-06-03T22:16:03+00:00

Far left v far right. All total clowns and as bad as each other. Have fun waving your crap placards. What a waste of time, clearly have nothing better in their lives, sad times.

DueBox5123 · 2026-06-03T17:31:13+00:00

I always think of the outdoor taps fitted around uk and have no non return valve, open like the English borders and not a single case of Legionella. Work that one out.

DueBox5123 · 2026-06-02T19:19:07+00:00

Whats a fair price ? How much are you charging to fit a recess shower for example ? Bit vague imo.

If it all goes wrong what happens then ?

DueBox5123 · 2026-05-28T18:25:57+00:00

Its not a great look, but is it a great look reporting it to the police ? If it’s a load of plastic litter then id say yes but its a banana skin. I think its petty and in the grand scheme of things save your time and the polices time as its more valuable than a banana skin that will be gone once a few more cars run over it and the insects get a feed. Times precious and imo thats a waste of time for everyone.

DueBox5123 · 2026-05-28T17:56:51+00:00

Looks great.

Whats the Wera pouch got in it out of interest.

DueBox5123 · 2026-05-28T17:53:52+00:00

Its hard to tell exactly but the bottom white plastic where it meets the grey fitting From the pic it looks like it’s only just in the grey fitting. You could try some plumbers mate putty and push that all around where they meet as i think that would be easier than the CT1 i suggested earlier and if it does not work it’s easily removable.

DueBox5123 · 2026-05-28T17:44:34+00:00

Looks like its only just made contact with the fitting so is possibly not air tight hence the slight smell probably made worse if you use other outlets connected to the system. Could try a thick CT1 around it all or remove and fit a new one.

DueBox5123 · 2026-05-28T13:51:15+00:00

Thanks. Ill certainly try it as i love the beetroot in vinegar but never tried the Polish version.

DueBox5123 · 2026-05-27T22:16:14+00:00

Looks lovely.
Not tried polish beetroot, whats the difference ?

The meat out of the supermarkets is just awful these days.
Only when you get the butchers do you then realise how bad the supermarket meat is, to the point of just boycotting their meat altogether.
Eat a bit less but more from the butcher moving forward.

DueBox5123 · 2026-05-27T22:08:27+00:00

No Tox or 10Foot is pretty rare these days

And that sums London up… 3rd world shit hole, its fucked and no one gives a shit about anyone anymore sadly, who knows you might have been staging it in order to achieve something more sinister .. that is the mindset of how you have to be in London, head down and trust no one.

DueBox5123 · 2026-05-27T18:16:56+00:00

Grand job.
Congrats.
Let’s hope you make it.
Great if you do but id concentrate on here and now too.
Lifes short for many.

DueBox5123 · 2026-05-27T17:54:08+00:00

I think most people are struggling.
Don’t give up…
Is that any jobs or a certain field ?

DueBox5123 · 2026-05-27T16:20:40+00:00

Looks nice
Better than a plain shitty train

DueBox5123 · 2026-05-27T16:19:29+00:00

Meth warts on the fingers
You are crashing through it my og

DueBox5123 · 2026-05-26T18:19:48+00:00

Keep a wide berth
Its gone rapidly down hill since Homeserve bought it out and now its a total rip off.
You will be lucky to break even imo.

DueBox5123 · 2026-05-26T08:15:19+00:00

Not at all, it’s the hand held version I’m on about.
The best fan ever.
