Could have been an "obvious" reference to anything.. This is why we use the quote function, or at least mention somehow who we are talking to.. Just Like you did to me, and i did to you.. See how really well that works? At least it wasn't halfway down another full page of posts, like some do.. but then again, who would know if it was or wasn't? Seeing as there was no reference to who was supposed to enjoy what.. LOL it could have been something from five pages back..

Pretty clear... LOL

Little Sunday task. Attempt to keep the air compressor noise down a little. The garden shed area hasn’t been completed yet. Needs a roof and some fence panels to match the rear of the yard.

Let’s see how the temps get inside there! For can be pinned open when required.

It’s a timber frame double skinned with 4.5mm soffit fibre cement. Packing in the cavity with acoustic sound batts.

The two piece in the 20mm airline is a drain valve on the bottom.

I have a 120L AirMac compressor. Which is coupled to a 50L spare tank. Then up to the regulator. All this to combat moisture for painting.

The system runs up 4.6m then splits inside the shed roof for 3 outlets. Each with a water trap as well.

It works well.

Well after getting instructions to move on from my rental abode I had to clean out my shed but forgot to take a picture. Oh well you all know what a clean and empty shed looks like... Well maybe not. Anyway I will not be doing that again, cardboard box will be my next move 😁😁

Bathroom, rather than shed, but couldn't think of where else to put it ???

In the process of replacing the flick mixer tap in the bathroom, as it's been getting very stiff & hard to use, which usually means the cartridge is shot.

Was just going to replace the cartridge, but when I had a look underneath the basin, one of the braided hoses has a rusty patch on it, which means that's also on the way out, so lets put a new tap in, instead ;D

Went in to TradeLink to pick one up, chatting to the lady as she's putting it through & mentioned about the hose. She said that they've been told by Insurance people, that if a hose bursts, flooding your house, & the hose is more than ~5 years old, they will probably knock the claim back, on the grounds of not being maintained! :o

So, if you've got braided hoses under your sinks & basins, please check & replace them regularly! ;D

At 4:45 this morning (Real Time).....

Out with the Fleetwood, in with the Statesman. (that way, if a part is wrong, I still have the Fleetwood available)

Up in the air.... jack stands... and off with wheels and the R/F tie rod end and left side rack boot.
Fit a new one of each, wheels back on and swap cars back around.

Now I can run the ol girl to work at 10 past 8 (Real Time) and then shoot it over for a wheel alignment at 8:30. (Real Time)

Should be home in time for a coffee and a peanut paste sanger by 10am (Real Time)

For me it would be car in shed (real time). Find the jack (5 minutes). Find the stands (5). Jack car up put on stand (5).
Find the wheel brace, get distracted by the other thing I've been looking for (10). Realise I didn't loosen the wheel nuts, lower car, loosen nuts and back up (15).
Time for a coffee and figure out how to the the next step (20)

Mow lawn, run out of fuel midway, get in the car to get fuel.....

Have had an ensuite braided hose burst in the past, Floor mat washed over the drain and ended up flooding the bedroom and half the hall ..
Have just replaced all the hoses in this house, some bulged and ready to burst ..  Modern PVC pipes and fittings now ..
