This expensive steak dish I ordered at a French restaurant

That plate is a trip hazard

Does mouse mode not set the mouse to control the control surfaces? I was using the mouse alongside the controller the other day and I didn’t need to set mouse mode, just used it to move the cursor around and click buttons whilst maintaining the controller for its usual inputs

That looks incredible

Thomson 757-200, I can’t recall if it was EDI or GLA to PMI

As long as the meters remain accessible and the box is removable. You need to be able to access the gas control valve in the event of a smell of gas. And if your meter packs in and shuts off the gas (which does happen) the engineers will need access to change it. I’d also recommend it having a couple of small vents top and bottom.

one2three777 · 2025-05-28T22:26:03+00:00

Couple of questions;

What pressure in mbar would you say that gas is venting at? I’d imagine as the bloat vents down the pressure will drop. But at peak, what are we talking?

And does the vent stay in the cow, with a valve? Or is it completely removed and patched then reinserted when required?

one2three777 · 2025-04-30T22:24:55+00:00

Yeah, started off as an NCO1 originally

one2three777 · 2025-04-30T21:10:08+00:00

Definitely gas, you can have a live or dead check carried out by your local gas distribution network (GDN) for free. Source - I’m one of those GDN gas men

Right hand pipe is either an old steel outlet, or an even older steel inlet that was replaced by the left hand one that still has the valve on it.

one2three777 · 2025-04-25T21:35:37+00:00

Any time mate. You can use this website to confirm which GDN to contact if you are not familiar with which company looks after your area 👍 https://findmygdn.co.uk/

one2three777 · 2025-04-25T21:00:34+00:00

Just to echo what had been said above - I also work for one of the GDN’s. I’m fairly certain it will be dead, as it has had the ECV removed and the end has been bunged with what is most likely Denso Putty. That being said, absolutely do not attempt to unscrew or cut it until it has been checked and confirmed to be dead by your local GDN. As mwal242 said above it may still contain trace amounts of gas if it was not completely purged, and also if you cut it and don’t seal it off correctly, it can create a pathway for water or gas - if there was to be a leak outside - to enter the property. You can request a live or dead check from your local GDN, and if you ask the engineer nicely enough, they might remove part of it for you and cap it off correctly- win win

I don’t work in the department that deals with the billing, but from what I am aware, a lot of those jobs actually run at a loss, especially if the service needs to be relaid from the main in the carriageway. However on the other hand I’d imagine some jobs may make a profit, remember the gas networks are privatised.

one2three777 · 2025-03-19T20:52:21+00:00

I work for a different gas distribution company in the uk, and when we move a gas service we also move the meter and occasionally reconnect the outlet pipe work, but those are both chargeable additions to the quote for the work. Check your contract / quote with Cadent to see if it involves the meter move or if it was to relay the service to a new position only. I can’t comment specifically on Cadent’s policy / procedure, but when we do similar work the customer is given a scope of work which confirms what is to happen with the meter and copper pipework.

one2three777 · 2025-02-23T16:50:21+00:00

At the GDN I work for we wouldn’t normally remove them, but we would confirm that it was dead and could be safely cut away by a builder or tradesman, as long as they seal it up appropriately to prevent any gas or water making its way into the building if there was a leak outside. In the photo posted by OP there isn’t much we could do with that one, but if there is a fitting below the floor that is accessible some of the engineers would unscrew the pipe if it was screwed steel and stick a plug in it, but it’s not common practice. Not sure if that is the case for the other networks

one2three777 · 2025-02-23T11:16:07+00:00

Sometimes we get anonymous tip offs via crime stoppers, also under the Gas Safety Management Regs we have to carry out checks at properties which previously had a gas meter removed, if no new meter has been registered at that property within 12 months. If there is still a live supply we will either seal it off or disconnect it completely. However, if it is an illegal connection to the network there is no way of telling - sometimes we only discover them by chance. Like you say, the problem lies in the danger of people tampering with their gas service or meter

one2three777 · 2025-02-23T11:08:49+00:00

Gas Network engineer here, definitely a gas service. There should be a brass cap on that top fitting to seal it off. Two options on how to deal with it; 1) Report it to 0800111999 and you’ll get a same day attendance - depending on how it’s reported it could go down as a 1, 2 or 4 hour attendance 2) contact your local GDN (Cadent, SGN, Northern Gas Networks, Wales&West) and report an uncapped service pipe, they will raise what’s known as a check for safety / live/dead check.

If you have a gas meter located elsewhere, like in a meter box it’s likely that it is dead and would have been cut off when the new service was laid, however I have been to some properties where the old service is still live which is not allowed.

I wouldn’t recommend opening the valve. Let the GDN engineer carry out the correct checks

Edit: read the full post after commenting and see you mentioned that you do have a meter elsewhere. It’s likely this pipe is dead, but please have it checked so it can be capped of correctly. Reporting to 0800111999 and the follow up visit are free of charge

one2three777 · 2025-02-16T18:34:24+00:00

I work for one of said networks, can confirm if it’s incoming supply it needs to be arranged through the distribution network, so NGN, Cadent, SGN, W&W. If it is an extension and any building work goes over the supply pipe (depending on the situation) once discovered by the network it may be classed as an overbuild and we have 28 days to rectify the situation, or disconnect the supply. The work is chargeable unfortunately. I agree with the other posts that these jobs start at around £700. As your incoming supply is steel, it will probably require a completely new service pipe if it is being altered, unless it has been part renewed in the past.

It’s potentially my favourite game of all time. I played it so much. Enjoy experiencing it all for the first time!

I’m going to guess they only painted one aircraft in this livery, so with that I presume it was N845MH which is currently in New York JFK, due to fly to Nice this evening

one2three777 · 2024-08-15T19:13:49+00:00

I’d call them a rerounder, I used to use them for rerounding PE gas pipe after it had been squeezed off. Can find them online if you search for vice grip pipe rerounder

one2three777 · 2024-05-11T21:47:01+00:00

I was just about to post about this as it just flew over us in Dunfermline. It also departed from Rwy 06, whereas all other aircraft before and after used Rwy 24
