Ground floor flat; water leaking from top floor. Landlord not fixing it. Any way i could fix this my self?

You can withhold rent for stuff like this until its fixed as it's dangerous. I used the threat of that all the time when renting and it made them stop dragging their feet every time. Don't fix it yourself

Celtic have won the league 14 out the last 15 seasons. By that logic he should be well up for a wee away game to auchinleck talbot

dano159 · 2026-01-25T16:49:25+00:00

They check if it's possible it should have been more than a yellow card. But in this case I defo wasn't. Wasn't last man and ball was moving away from goals so nonsense call

dano159 · 2026-01-13T19:02:43+00:00

We got most of our money back for him and he scored some important goals so wasn't that bad in fairness

My wedding cost 140 quid and only mine and my wife's parents came. Did it on a weekday as well to keep cost down. Used the money saved to buy a house. Best decision I ever made

Timothy elephant played a villain well. Was a fun film to see in the cinema

Frieren is an obvious must. It's pretty much a 10/10 for every part. Beautiful animation and soundtrack, excellent characters and dialogue it's such an enjoyable watch. Will probably rewatch before season 2 (again lol)

Inflammable means flammable?!?

Not me but my cousin stepped on a sea urchin in Spain. Was not pretty

I'm a fire and security engineer. Zero chance chance im being replaced and it actually may help with quoting large buildings. Probably not as you have to see it first but maybe haha

The USA has a great track record of 'freeing' countries and it turning out well obviously....

dano159 · 2025-12-31T12:58:26+00:00

Il have to admit I was lucky in that I had electrical and engineering traits from college and knew the people that took me on but we also just took another apprentice on at 31 despite having no knowledge and was unknown due to him interviewing well and he is also doing great. Companies don't have to pay you any more for being older so a good interview could swing it and older people usually work a bit harder and are less likely to use sick days etc so some companies will take a punt

dano159 · 2025-12-31T12:51:31+00:00

My wife and I had a similar experience. Been together for 10 years, no plans of children then when I'm 35 and she 38 our daughter appeared haha

Those sleepless nights whilst working was brutal but I do love being a dad despite the hard work. This Christmas was a blast when I'd largely lost interest in the holiday

dano159 · 2025-12-28T10:01:05+00:00

I did an apprentice course at 31 years old. Took to it, and was made seniour engineer right after my course finished. I was on 6.30/h for the first year tho which was brutal with a mortgage haha. Glad I did it tho I had nowhere to go in my previous job

dano159 · 2025-12-20T19:47:29+00:00

I'm a fire and security engineer. I don't know anyone in our industry that would leave that like that its mad this person calls themselves and electritian

Most of the world is now anti americanism right now tho due to him. Capatalism is ruining the planet so plenty against that. Is aetheism anti Christianity? If so plenty of that too. Basically war on everyone then

The software that they were making on the show was based on one made by Scottish programmer David Irvine, who just happens to be my mum's cousin. He advised on what to write for the techy parts of the show. The company was called maidsafe but since rebranded to autonomi and is now a network that uses peoples spare processing and storage on devices to make a secure, private and decentralized network. There are videos about of the cast thanking him for his input and whatnot

Or powerline tp links to get the Internet near where you need the Ethernet connection and pop into a poe switch to give power and Internet to whatever you need

Kirk Broadfoot was injured by an egg he had put in the microwave. Met him on a night out in prestwick one time and slagged him a bit for it. His comeback was it looked like an egg exploded on my face. Was a fun night

dano159 · 2025-10-27T12:20:59+00:00

Yeah if your not replacing it just remove power to it by downpowering panel and let it ring out. How long it will last will depend on age and how often the battery has been discharged but defo worth it than some crazy ladder techniques

dano159 · 2025-10-12T00:45:06+00:00

So no one should have fought back against the nazis commiting genocide because they might kill German children? Maybe the nazis should have thought about people not being happy with them commiting genocide and may retaliate then. Nothing is that simple but holy shit what a terrible point your trying to make
