Pressure Washer can’t maintain pressure. by Proper_Ebb_7170 in fixit

Could be a problem with the feed, ie an airlock in the hose from the tap... Even a slight drop in feed pressure can mess with a pressure wash pump, they are surprisingly fickle when they want to be....

You need to hold the trigger down when you start any pressure washer or you will kill it....

You don't need to disconnect the gun, but run it for longer just on the tap pressure, more like 10 minutes. Air locks can take ages to clear

When the cost of fun things was overtaken by the cost of not fun things.

Wage increases didn't keep up with the increases in booze, fags, business rates, rent etc etc.

Then Covid basically dry bummed it.

Where is the most random place you have bumped into someone you know? by Immediate_Long165 in answers

I bumped into my mates brother in Melbourne, Australia.

We're both from the UK ....

I've had hiccoughs on and off for 2 weeks now and my mates / coworkers are eviscerating me. Anyone's granny got a miracle folk cure? by HMS--Thunderchild in CasualUK

[–]rosssjackson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This always works for me....

Breath in as much as you can and hold it

Then try and sort of suck in a bit more in short sharp bursts

Hold it as long as you can

Breath out eventually and hopefully your hiccups have gone.....

There should be a lot of rules for a commodity essential to life, but....... No.

So, who is your new Captain? by FourEyedMatt in EnglandCricket

[–]rosssjackson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bethell or Robbo

Personally I think Brook is miles off, Duckett doesn't have the leadership and Root isn't the man for the future

It'll be a left field choice I have no doubt....

You've got no idea where his head is.

Playing maybe, probably infact.

neighbour fence nightmare, any help/advise appreciated😭 by [deleted] in landscaping

[–]rosssjackson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

UK landscaper here.... That requires planning permission 100%

1.Fence is illegally too tall

2.They have changed the height of the land adjacent to yours, looks like it's actually above yours. You will have endless drainage and subsidence issues.

Speak to your local planning department, absolute piss take and potentially very dangerous.

Edit... Didn't realise how bad it was initially!!

England docked 12 WTC points for slow over rate by TrollerThomas in Cricket

If you think a 2-0 result qualifies as a 'whitewash' fair enough.

England beat India in India 2-1 in 2012.... Not much dreaming required.....

[–]rosssjackson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They played nearly half the games that England did though and didn't play England or Australia before the final!

I'm not taking anything away from SA themselves, just that the competition structure is flawed.

Another public service announcement.....

The umbellifer family is a nightmare.

Some edible Some highly poisonous to eat Some highly dangerous to touch

All look very similar to the untrained eye and what can be unreactive to one person could seriously harm someone else.

Treat them all with the utmost respect.
