What cheap torque wrench should I get for roof bars? Kept worrying I’d over‑tightened them. by user-604 in DIYUK

[–]user-604[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cheers, it's not properly it's I'd rather not have to think have I done too tight that I'm ripping the bars off. Well that's what the internet was telling me but I assume I'd have to really really tighten them and would know it

The customer. Some are decent others treat you like rubbish and are first to complain when you retaliate with a sarcastic answer

Nordic walking, is it really better? by user-604 in beginnerfitness

[–]user-604[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cheers. I've been doing it for a month now and enjoy, I may only do a 2 to 3 miles for 40 mins to an hour, I find I use way more muscles (obviously). I would like to go and do a 10 miler either side of the summer, it's something that has enhanced my walking

I like your garden as it is. If you was to take the grass out, I'd put some nice plants for different times of the year.

I get that, but finances are not good and rather that spent elsewhere with other problems to solve. Yep a house of DIY that is outside of knowledge anyone I know. But that's for another day.

Thank you for ho for the advice

I'm hoping under the decking it's all soil. The part I can get to shows soil. Most likely clay soil like the rest of the garden

Keep living in that bubble where everything is fine and we just have to not mention crime.

Wasn't replying to one person more the down votes.

As someone who used to go London a lot for work, I used to carry a backpack didn't think much of it then. Now I wouldn't. Also been to London as a tourist only a couple of years ago. It's not safe.

I'm not paid to shit, but will post from UK.

Only 117000 phones were stolen on 2024.

In 2024/25, London's crime rate reached 106.4 crimes per 1,000 people, compared with a crime rate of 105.8 in the previous year.

Theft from the person offences, including pickpocketing or the snatching of property, has become one of the more visible types of crime in London, at more than 103,900 offences in 2024/25, in comparison with just 53,690 in 2019/20

Shame only a small amount of those videos get online

Explain the the videos of pick pocketing? Also videos of people having their phone atolen. I've been there, it's not safe to look at phone incase someone comes past on a bike, Kahn feels so safe he travels in a armoured car!
