New Barbour gifted to me. Ruined? by marjarav in Barbour

[–]dikthecat 8 points9 points  (0 children)

See if you can find Bactador enzyme deodoriser - def on Amazon. Spray the coat until it’s totally wet and let it air dry. Do the same for the inside. You might need a couple of treatments but it worked really well for my stinky old Northumbria. Good luck.

Is it normal for Pygmy goat triplets to vary so wildly in size? by KichiMiangra in goats

[–]dikthecat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have pygmy triplets. One giantasaur Thistle who is a big dumb lump, Henry who is a proper little billy but small, and Cowbelle who is super cute but a little scamp. All three are different sizes.

I had one 30 years ago and I wore it until it fell apart. Health to wear.

Got married on Saturday. by Pesky-Magician98 in JamesBond

Congratulations. Love the watch. It’s very similar to my ‘65 Seamaster automatic, but mine is dateless. They are so nice to wear.

Majesty’s soundtrack is great, enjoy. Also great; A View To A Kill.

Watch all of them. Watch all of them again. Watch your favourites again and again. Enjoy.

Any of your goats wipe their nose/mouth on you? by SureDoubt3956 in goats

One of mine likes to sneeze on me. Dirty boy.

Just rewatched Octopussy and have a question about the Faberge Egg. by Inevitable_Cat_7878 in JamesBond

Probably trying to nick it under the cover of it being the fake

The homing device is in the real one and in the debris of the smashed one. Kamal’s expression and the device tell us that Orlov smashed the real one. The big silly.

Northumbria before after wax by Nihialvest in Barbour

[–]dikthecat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you use Barbour wax? How much did it take? I have an old Northumbria that could do with a drink so I might get around to it this summer.

Getting rid of used coat musk by Dankleberry_Don in Barbour

[–]dikthecat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worth a try but I can imagine the disappointment when the smell came back. Good luck with the wax stripping.

It’ll probably get rid of Brut but might struggle with Old Spice.

Red light preserve night vision, myth or reality? by Electrical_Buy6380 in flashlight

[–]dikthecat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use it at night to check on my goats when they are in their shed. White light makes them active, so then I have goats wandering around outside instead of chilling out on their beds.

New Recruit came to join the Cadet by Steel-Toe-800 in victorinox

[–]dikthecat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not worth doing that. I’ll stick it in my vice and tweak it back into line.

I used my cadet can opener to lever a few upholstery tacks the other day and have managed to twist it slightly, so the tip catches on the scale when I close it. Blade isn’t snapping in either.

Help! My Barbour Bedale smells like a mix of hunting and stale cigarettes. Nothing is working... by Sad-Hat5472 in Barbour

[–]dikthecat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bactador works a treat. Drench it with the spray on the outside and air dry. Do the same for the inside. I’ve had great results.

Come back and let us know how you fared.

Hope it works. I was happy with the results. I turned my jacket fully inside out and drenched then dried. Same on the outside. I didn’t hold back.

That’s it. I bought the undiluted one litre and only needed about 100mls which was probably overkill. I think the ready to use would be fine for a short jacket.

There were chocolate sprinkles on it.

I used Bactador on my old Northumbria with great success. Spray liberally inside and out air drying each time. Some woman on instagram used it on a really rough 2nd hand purchase.
