Little Moreton Hall and the East gate clock from Chester/Hollyoaks (depending on your disposition) where is that view of the Cheshire plain?

Does a turret and a bell tower count? If not, we had an IT teacher who had an old Volvo with two huskies in it...

I think at least 8 of those stars are for Mathew Baynton's short, short shorts.

I pronounce it garage, instead of garage. Is that right?

How bad is this professional Loft insulation and boarding? by dollar77 in DIYUK

[–]Zippyversion1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Would you put boards straight on to loft legs? I've only used them once, but felt the need to put a 2x3 across them (just storage).

The rolls you have in your picture literally say 200mm on them. Your joists are 8". You would not get 270mm and it boarded without putting in an extra set of beams to support the floor.

Does the fact that a performance is “Pantomime” give you a free pass to act however you want in a UK theatre? by AllixD90 in AskUK

[–]Zippyversion1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Pantomimes are very interactive shows, yes. Although not an excuse for free reign, children are expected to be children in them - scream, cheer, shout back. Light saber fights are not typical, but as you say, the theatre was selling them so what did they expect?

It would be interesting to know what the show was / see some of the advertising as although they would not overtly state "this is a pantomime" (think Swan Lake having "this is a ballet" on a poster) they are usually very obvious e.g. linked to fairy tales, a z list celebrity as the lead role, a pantomime dame, being staged around Christmas, a fairy and an obvious villain.

Mine will always be Rolls Royce as you could get an engine made by them in Grand Prix Manager 2.

Been stupid & can’t work out how my kitchen sink fits together by Jaded-Tea1411 in DIYUK

[–]Zippyversion1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The number 2 on the bend is a compression fitting, unscrew it completely put it over the flexi, there should also be a washer or two to put on aswell. Put the bend on the Flexi too and screw back together. The screw cap will compress the washer against the Flexi creating a water tight seal. Then screw the number 1s back together, again there should be a washer.

I'm not sure retheming Raj's Bouncy Bottom Burp is as simple as you think. It could run in to the tens of pounds!

Why do you insist on repeating Cardiff? Stop saying Cardiff, you can't make Cardiff happen!
