Very nice Bobbers, but what are you going to wash them down with?I notice that Pushfit is very quiet, have we lost another one?!?!

A nice drop of Rioja?
I haven't got any Tempranillo left after last night's fiasco, and anyway it doesn't really go with smoked haddock, so I'm having a nice pint of G&T with it.. Cheers!

I was once given a recipe for fish in parsley sauce, something to do with boiling a fish finger inside a used condom I think.
Never tried it, I hasten to add.
I must say, I haven't heard of that recipe, Bomma, but back in the early '70s there was a Top Tip that recommended filling a used condom with coloured water, tying the end in a knot, and placing it on a radiator.Never tried it, I hasten to add.
Voila, a mood-enhancing lava lamp for that intimate ambience.
Psychedelic, eh? They were all the rage back then.

Hi BigBen, good to see you almost fully recovered after your initiation! 
I notice that you are only 15 minutes from Chelmsford by Aeriel Atom.
I wonder if Scrump's thing would fit in it?
Sadly I am Atomless now so even further from Chelmsford, although that may not be a bad thing.I notice that you are only 15 minutes from Chelmsford by Aeriel Atom.

My old mum and dad had one of those. A proper lava lamp I mean, not the condom substitute thing. They weren't particularly wealthy, but they weren't that hard up.Voila, a mood-enhancing lava lamp for that intimate ambience.

Hellfire, you only posted that just after 19.00. That's some going even for a seasoned veteran like your goodself What time did you start on it?
So a question for our learned friends, what's the best thing for cleaning greasy kitchen walls prior to painting them???

Nice! 
Are those the ones they advertise on the Home Shopping Channels and demonstrate at the Classic Car Restoration Shows?
The ones that can drill straight through brake discs, brick, concrete slabs, glass, tungsten, armour plate, bone, granite and fish fingers all in one go without the slightest hesitation?
With a lifetime replacement guarantee should you manage to blunt one or snap it? Even if you abuse them using immense pressure and drill speed, with the tip smoking & glowing cherry red?
I have often been tempted, but the lifetime guarantee probably isn't worth it for somebody my age.
I have the drills from that guy who sells them at the classic car shows
No bear in mind I was using them daily being in property maintenance they were bloody good.
But what they did not stand up to was the drilling out of locks.
If the head of the drill caught an edge inside a lock the Tungsten bit would snap off.
But I sent a few back in a stamped addressed envelope and I did receive replacements
Got a few more to send back now but for masionary they are good.
They will not go through a stressed heavy duty steel lintel.
For those you need to use Hss drill bits

She gave us a handful of gravel each. A handful of cold gravel.
She's nine and, unbeknown to her, an apprentice Pythoneer.

It appears I've picked up a bug of some sort, I've been having stabbing pains all across my abdomen for a couple of hours now, lots of wind and I really don't feel great!!!
Oh dear, that doesn't sound good, Bobbers. Were those fish fingers a bit dodgy?
Scrump said:
Was it the al fresco food served by Dicky’s granddaughter #2?
No unfortunately I think it's due to me not washing the salad off before I put it in my sandwich at lunchtime.
