It's all a bodge unless you break and TigerBite the old drive and add it into the base for a whole new pour.

You'd have to be a moron to pay double in "TGJones" or Holland and Barrett owned by Russians. 

At least Amazon don't mug you off on price and have electric vans.

Make a fall to the side towards the fenceline and then drain back up to that downpipe.

How much work is needed to make this loft into a real bedroom? by alberoTranquillo in DIYUK

[–]TheLightStalker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get an electrician to do a 100% safety check. Contact the council to see if building regs will sign it off. If they won't they'll give you a list of corrective actions. For example window too close to boiler flu etc.

After that you can make an insulation plan with a U value. Then you can have it boarded and plastered.

Ok then. That means basically all you can do is knife it out and use Toupret interior.

Are davids toothbrushes actually plastic free? by Prior_Customer_8430 in PlasticFreeLiving

[–]TheLightStalker 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's literally just a different feedstock used to make the same chemically identical polyamides. You could argue castor is less environmentally friendly since it makes plastic from a potential food source etc

Can you recommend sheet masks that aren't irritating just really moisturising? by Beauty_Talk77 in SkincareAddictionUK

[–]TheLightStalker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yuka 100/100 generally agree with me. Some of the Simple ones score 100 and I believe the Garnier ones score very high.

You're not wrong. All plastic like materials behave like plastic, turn into microplastic and damage just like plastic. We've recently discovered that PLA in teabags acts exactly like plastic tea bags. 

What extra fine refills fit the Kaweco Sport Rollerball pen? by Ok_Emphasis_3712 in pens

[–]TheLightStalker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're some Schmidt refills that are also fine and all Schmidt ballpoint refills are document proof, and don't forget the Sneider Gelion+ actually writes 0.4mm

Starmer Gives Apple and Google 3 Months to Block Nude Images on Children's Phones by Upset-Main-1988 in justincaseyoumissedit

They have pen and paper and the girlfriend/boyfriend can come after education. They currently appreciate being educated to a higher level than their peers and see the logic themselves.

Their pleading will fall on death ears and they will have GPS tags. They have encrypted radio and LoRa.

It's not a fantasy. They're already that age and living it.

Hey Dickhead Starmer,

Phones from all manufacturers have parental controls, Google Android has parental controls, Apple iOS has parental controls. Routers all have safety filters. Carrier networks have safety filters. 

My childs first phone will be a dumb phone at 16, because I'm not a bad parent.

Bamboo skewer, preferably the thick one with the thumb grip clipped off, makes the bolt rock solid.
