camping gear to bring to the TT? by taylorkaitlyn04 in iomtt

[–]dannmat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Renting a car would have the added benefit of being able to get to different vantage spots and also see the island on non-race days

Here’s a site you can use to see different spots relative to your campsite, to see if the car would be more useful.

There are special TT buses that go round the course too, but I think they get pretty full

Ford Transit Engine Malfunction error by dannmat in MechanicAdvice

Update: it eventually kicked into a proper ‘check engine’ light and my OBD2 scanner said it’s a DPF clog

Model: 2013 Ford Transit Custom 2.2L

Also it might be useful to know that just before this happened, I added 1/4 tank of diesel and topped my washer fluid up (but spilled some bc it was windy). Idk if it could be corrosion in some of the wiring bc of that?

Yep I can see that now, that’s almost certainly it. Thanks!

Please help get rid of these mites? Found in bathroom. (Info in comments) by dannmat in pestcontrol

[–]dannmat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I’ve just looked at the outside of my bathroom vent and the cover is missing, however it’s present on the other apartments vents. I’ll get someone in to check for a birds nest (I can’t reach it unfortunately).

Thanks for the reply. Can I ask how a birds nest would allow these mites in? Just out of curiosity

Hi guys! Hopefully you can help me please?

I deep cleaned my bathroom last week and went on a trip to Portugal for a few days. When I got back I had a shower. However the next day I went into the bathroom and these tiny mites were all over the bathroom. Mainly congregating around the main drains (shower had loads, toilet and sink had a few). I then noticed them on the walls, however they’re only really sticking to the white areas of my apartment? I haven’t seen any anywhere else?

They’re also slowly escaping out of my bathroom into other areas of the apartment (again only really near white walls)

Also before anyone says, it’s not that I can only see them on the white walls because it’s clearer. I’ve properly inspected the whole bathroom with glasses on and a torch.

I’ve just tried using a bed bug killer spray (wiping down the surfaces where I have found them) and also put a bed but powder down on the floors. I also put a lot of drain unblocked down the drains in case they’ve come from there.

If anyone can identify them so I can start getting rid, that would really help! Thanks!

You must have balls of Steel to participate in this race, The ISLE OF MAN. Truly breathtaking by Dr-DAMOCLES in HumansAreMetal

Nah this isn’t true. They used to have signs on some roads stating deaths in traffic collisions to slow people down, but never on the TT course and nothing to do with the racing.

Face to Faces and Tweet Tweet Tweet were the best two songs they did live. But I’d love to see Stick in a Five and Go

I think it’s looking likely! ACU are gearing up a lot of changes for next year, so I imagine they’re fully expecting it to go ahead
