I love seeing old cars on the road.

How many different areas of Leicester/Leicestershire have you lived?
simFox replied to Kinowe Soorie's topic in General Chat
Ullesthorpe, burbage and barwell. But spent a lot of time out the shire. We probably pissed on izzys bus if we saw it at away matches being the rival village! edit: actually, the claybrooke lads were on our bus, must have been the Lutterworth bus iirc, Happy days! Lol -
The worst thing is, you got your EV back.

Anything by Gemmel. Such a shame to lose a great writer. His wife finished his last book. Morningstar is a particular favorite. Classic anti hero. But all the drenai series is great, especially with druss in it.

Dashcam. Had to disconnect ours from the Merc, kept getting battery notifications on my phone, then the car went haywire and required a battery reset. A good indication is the start stop deactivating as the car tries to reduce it's battery use.

It was clearly evident at the presidential debate. No experts were required to make that assessment. It was like watching my ex girlfriends grandad trying to eat peas with his fork upside down. Pelosi and Obama both stepped in to force him to step down. The rest of the time was spent picking him up off the floor or waking him up for his nap. Watching him being pointed in the right direction for the G20 photo was truly pathetic.

But that is EXACTLY what happened with Biden. Didn't turn out to be the biggest scandal at all. They had his signature on autopen, which itself isn't unusual, but is when it's used for literally everything.

I get up at 5:40 latest, but usually much earlier. Straight out, 4-5000 steps, then shower and breakfast. If it's 3 or 4am, I get my steps done then go back to bed and set my alarm for 6:40. Out the door for 7am. If I wake around 3 or 4 and try to go back to sleep, I'll stay awake, not do my steps and be tired. But if I go for a walk I can go back to sleep easily.

Well he campaigned on that, so that's what people voted for.

I had to delete the kids out the pic! Couldn't get them out the whirlpool bath after i fitted it all! but it's left a smudge. When taking tiles off, it pulls off the plaster board, so you have to take quite a chunk off and build it back up.

I don't think I used Fibo, but I did use showerboards for our bathroom. I was getting quotes of 12k so it motivated me to do it myself. The boards were really easy, but they are also easy to cock up if you can't cut straight, so I don't know what tools you have or how confident you are. But they were very quick to put up. A decent circular saw and good tressels made it easy. I kept a detailed spreadsheet and I ended up spending just over 5k, but I bought 2k in tools, but I don't mind spending money on decent tools. It was the dewalt cordless goodies that bumped that up. The number of trips I made to b&q, wickes and the local builders merchant had my head spinning.

If there's some identifying marks. You might find a you tube video on how to take the bulb out.

No impact. Look what Charles LeClerc did at sauber, Hamilton in his first season against Alonso, Verstappen at Torro Rosso, Schumacher at Jordan, I could go on. He's a solid driver, but Lando is quicker. When the field is this close you've got to be quick to win. It's not like the 80's where you can win the championship coming second every race.

Could be a sealed unit. You'll know more when you get it out. Just pull it out, there will be 2 springs that hold it in, they'll become apparent as it comes out. Will be a choc block for the wiring, so just unscrew and put on the bench. Front might screw off to get bulb out, otherwise get a new unit by checking the id marks (serial, part number etc) You can tidy up the hole by fitting some perspex plates between the light and the ceiling, just measure and search for a size on eBay. Scrape off the over paint. That would drive me mad. I disconnect all my sockets, switches and fittings if painting and get behind them.

Aliens might come here regularly, but space time isn't continuous, so 50,000 years have passed since they came last week.

Another push to break with a fused spur, carpeted the floor and boarded it out and added a shoe rack.
-
With 4 kids and a wife who collects shoes, we were in much need of some shoe storage. So I put a hatch in the staircase. (Carpet won't be changed until the kids grow up, they've already ruined the living room, I know it's terrible)

Boarded my loft out and fitted a pull down ladder. Loads of storage space now. Also put lighting up there on a push to break switch, so it turns off when the hatch is closed. To maximise headroom I used the silver quilt stuff, which is more expensive but can be stapled between the rafters to create a thermal barrier. The insulation i removed just added to the stuff on the sides. Also put shelving between rafters.

If America keep spending money like a drunk sailor, the world economy will crash anyway. Likely just when I retire.

Once see the size of Marco Rubio's ears, it's hard to see anything else. It's like something off Star Trek.

Macca just need to get used to winning if they have the fastest car. Lando is quickest but prone to mistakes and Piastri has the hallmarks of a journeyman to me. Flexiwing rules could see a shakeup once they are enforced. Which might play into RB's hands. Lewis could really make the difference to Ferrari if he gets his eye in. He knows how to win.

Every season they scrape through. Like a turd that won't flush. When they finally go down it will be forever.

Is Everton the luckiest club in prem history.
