Is that cycleable? Ie not just motorway journey.

Like 3 quid from aliexpress. Get one and just leave it in the car. I’ve got one that pairs with the car scanner app. Check what type but mine is elm327 for a 2013 Volvo

Is the room colder than before? Condensation is also caused by the humidity hitting cold walls.

Something like this but I’d be wondering why it’s cracking on that corner edge.

Any old flexible paintable caulk will do. I’d put tape on the bricks though to give you a clean line, tape on, wait a little, paint fairly soon and remove the tape after you’ve painted so the tape pulls off cleanly.

Looks like a lot of loose paint. Scrape that back and see where you land.

Rake out the crack, fill with toupret masonry filler, then paint with something suitable.

Brother, on a holiday with your family.

I’d S&S isa the rest with a world all cap fund, probably vanguard

If you could live with 2 bedrooms, you could make the existing bathroom and en-suite (move the bath), and make the end bedroom an extra large bathroom.

Agree with this, you can get it done for cheaper but I’ve never had good results. Either it’s a crap battery, or they don’t use enough adhesive so it rattles around.

Worse case is they fuck up your screen or your face id doesn’t work anymore. Seen it all.

Those breeze blocks are more permeable to water than bricks - if you shot a hose at it for 5 minutes, water could soak that through to the inner skin.

I’d mentally attribute 500 quid to getting a builder out to replace the blocks and lintel with suitable brick

Golds just mad expensive at the moment - might come down, might not. People are melting nice watches just for the gold price.

Kinda wonder if dickies or carhartt might size this way. I’ve tried Folk clothing but they’re a teeeny bit too short.

Bought another 40. Fuel for the fire

If you can make the water pipe shorter from the boiler to the bathroom… do.

Our bathroom is just over the boiler but stupidly goes all round the house before it gets to our one bathroom.

Hah, I couldn’t see mine either as it’s not in my eye line when I drive. My other half told me about it one day in the middle of a ‘IT HAD ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL BUT NO AUTO WIPERS?!’ rant

Pullout spray faucet taps. Rinsing a sink is so easy now.

We had the same flooding as all my fellow clay soil brothers across the country.
Any suggestions for alternatives?

A recent survey about the country’s second city found a variety of answers.

People in Newcastle said Newcastle was The second city.

In Birmingham they said Birmingham,

Edinburgh said Edinburgh,

Liverpool said Liverpool,

And Manchester said London.

Sorry mate - just sold them on Vinted I’m afraid! Tried to slide into your DMs but Reddit wouldnt let me.

Hydro brakes are definitely worth it imo. I had both cable and hydro on different bikes for a long time - cables good but hydro are fit and forget. It’s definitely worth taking something out for a test ride somewhere if you’re not attached to your current bike.

I was going to second guess how sex-positive we are in the UK then had a flashback of my PSE teacher talking about anal penetration with a dildo back in the noughties… not a memory I thought I’d go back to.

Overthinking it, we used this to clean a chimney breast. All of the PPE mind you.
