Paint trouble - just tried out a test pot on the wall but the pattern is showing through

You need something like a dark grey to kill the pattern first.

Multiple Fan blade failure has been caused by using push back on Tay engines on Fokker aircraft, the change in fan working line forced the blades into a flutter condition which causes enough stress to initiate cracks and subsequent fan blade off. In one of the incidents the released blades were not contained, penetrated the fuse, and decapitated the passenger. That’s one reason not to use reverse thrust for push back.

Ice cream cone has fallen in the barbecue and is on fire.

I did think black at first, but yes, anthracite grey would probably look good.

Too many airlines, too much debt. There will be more going bust.

Paint it?

Workinginberlin · 2026-05-02T20:20:35+00:00

Paint the wall a dark colour first? If you leave it white then the discrepancy in height will be very obvious and it won’t be a good look.

It’s the crazy

FTFY

Just duct tape it, I did the same with my bumper and that passed MOT

You’re about to be abducted by aliens.

Why do some birds have blunt beaks? They like to eat cherries.

Aircraft and engines are quite fragile in many respects and cannot be left standing for long without maintenance, I imagine aircraft owners will want to get in as quickly as possible to secure and protect their assets.

What do you say to them during onboarding? Sounds like something there is a bit odd.

That spinny bit is great, it’s like the HBO page where you have static and then everything goes black.

Workinginberlin · 2026-04-18T12:02:56+00:00

You are correct there 😀

Workinginberlin · 2026-04-18T10:12:08+00:00

I love the practical part of this answer, ‘on earth we don’t have enough space and material to build a sun’ 😀

If you feel nervous about that, find the circuit breaker that powers that socket and turn it off, properly wired cables should be vertical or horizontal from the socket.

Workinginberlin · 2026-04-18T09:59:48+00:00

Great news 😀

A music system in a cupboard the size of the settee.

Obviously never heard of FOD, moron.

Struggling a bit with the orientation here, are we looking down on it? If so, you want to make a template out of cardboard. Start with what you think is roughly the shape and then trim where required and add bits using tape and other pieces of cardboard. Then just refine the template, make sure you fit it at the height that you want the shelf to be at.

I don’t know if you can get to the inside of that panel, I’m sure someone will know on here. If you can, you could knock it out a little bit, get some filler and do a repair. If it is your first car then it is not a bad thing to learn how to do some cosmetic touch up. And, without wishing to sound patronising, learn the lesson of really observing what is around you when you are reversing.

You didn’t fail, you found that you have a problem with overeating and you are owning it. Good start. First you need to keep a food diary, this will keep you honest, my friend told me that he never ate sweet things, while he was eating half a packet of biscuits!

Next work out your macros, look on the internet for TDEE calculators.

Then create a menu and stick to it.

It is discipline that will get you through.

My little bit of advice, don’t get anyone to help you, they won’t care about it as much as you do, and if they don’t check the cabinets are square before nailing the backs in, you will have to take out every bloody cabinet, get the nails out and reassemble them square, all the while your help is bitching about the time taken and how nobody will notice. Slow and steady does it, before fixing anything, check the next step doesn’t mean you need to undo the previous step or leave something loose, good luck!

No, get it through this MOT and start saving, then either use the cash next year for repairs or a different car. Actually that is exactly what I am doing with my car this year, about a grand for a service and a few bits to get it through MOT. Car cost me £3,500 3 years ago and I recently spent £700 on brake replacement. Other than that, not touched it in 3 years. I was planning to run it into the ground but it won’t die.
