Cliff Bastow Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 I have to say you might have a point! lol I would also comment on how well the New Zealand players acted and what good sportsmanship was displayed by both sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Fry Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Good news. The temperature in my yard is down to 37°. I am inside, slightly cool. Had to resort to jumping in the river earlier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john stones 1 - Moderator Posted November 8, 2019 Author Share Posted November 8, 2019 It's been a while, cheer up. Good news, it's stopped raining and forecast looks good for the coming days. Bad news, parts of Donny are flooded again, my sons house among them...again. No news about Larrys well being. I finished my Funky Cub build, fly it when fields o.k.

Devcon1 Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Been without central heating for a few days. One quote to replace PCB and gas valves at £460.00 + VAT but suggested new boiler. A bit of research and a replacement PCB from EBay for £43.00 which I fitted fixed the problem. See the problem, I could even have saved the £43.00.

Paul Marsh Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 My dad has an electronic business, he repaired the faulty caravan charger and the boiler remote unit for me recently. He can do you repairs as well. If anyone's interested pm me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Fry Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Short, excess solder, bottom right? John, sorry about your lad. Strange Autumn. In a statistically impossible set of strange seasons. I'm watching my river. Am I right, it's the second time in three? years that area has been done by fast flows off the hills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Cotsford Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Dry joint, lower left. I spent a few years repairing TVs in the last century and got quite adept at spotting them. After 66 years I've finally found out what flu really feels like. The good news? I'm almost over it Edited By Bob Cotsford on 08/11/2019 19:57:35 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only stuff and can be replaced, and my dogs got someone to play with now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devcon1 Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Bang on Bob. Bottom row third from left which is live to the fan. A few others show early signs of the same failure. Apparently its the constant change in temp as the boiler fires up and cools down which stresses the joint. My Mum lost her car in floods a few years back over Christmas and was inches from her flat being taken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Fry Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Third joint in. When I make such a find, I would be silent. Beloved is then left with the happy state she is shoe and handbag rich. But minus a scarf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devcon1 Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 One car, not in the pic, was taken by the river and was recovered a few miles downstream. The pic was taken Boxing day about 6 years ago just outside Bradford. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Etheridge 1 Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Our 32 year old VW Polo Ranger also passed it's MOT, but I still managed to spend just under £500 on non MOT items. My wife thinks it's a waste of money, it's her car, she bought it from new and we both have alternative cars! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Ashby - Moderator Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 This'll make you laugh. Chap at our club told me today that he decided to take his pulse on a whim, put two fingers on his wrist and found his heart was missing a beat. In a panic he told his wife who told him to see the doctor who said it seemed fine but, just to be on the safe side, he should have an ECG. So off he went to the hospital for an ECG where the results came back fine. When he got home he realised that the two fingers he put on his wrist were the ones he put into a running i.c. prop earlier in the year and after which he was forced to attend A&E for repairs. Then he remembered those finger tips still have reduced sensitivity after the accident Edited By David Ashby - Moderator on 04/11/2020 15:41:46 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
