  1. Just going to try a search on the mark, but needed to put it on its own first. Google couldn't find it. ☹
  2. I have two aircon units. One in the bedroom and one in the kitchen. It was 34°C outside the kitchen door today.
  3. I have not gone shooting since lockdown. I used to shoot clays at Mickley Hall. My late husband was the one who was the game shooter. I need things to appear when you shout pull to have a chance of hitting them. 🤷‍♀️
  4. Your not far from me. I am in Haslington. 🤷‍♀️
  5. Who knew a recycling project could sound so good. Maybe not technically a guitar, but top marks for innovation. 🤷‍♀️
  6. No thread on great guitarists is complete without a works from Andres Segovia.
  7. I prefer Wales. In the woodland and a few trips out and about. 😁
  8. Not really it is just easier to cut with than the No. 4 fine tooth blade. The best way of blending hair is to use thinning scissors with the teeth. I do our springers tail feathering with them so they have a more blended finish to the edge. Found this about skip tooth blades. Skip Tooth Blade Leaves the same length of hair but has alternative short and long teeth Designed to leave a more textured, rough finish Can go through coarser coats easier Great to use on matted coats (you will find using a skip tooth will not blunt your blade as quickly)
  9. I use a No.4 skip tooth blade on the body and ears and legs. A No.10 blade on the feet, face and under the tail. Curved scissors on the top of the head. I leave it longer in Winter. Youtube has lots of videos on dog clipping. I clip our springer as well. You would probably want a No.15 blade to shave with.
  10. They have a proboscis. Prepare to be probed. 🥴
  11. I clip the poodle and used to do Andrews hair.
  12. Wahl clippers with the carbon steel blades are good. Avoid stainless steel blades. They don't stay sharp.
  13. I have a wall mounted stainless wire soap dish to stand the soap in. Gets a good airflow round it a stops it going mushy. I didn't know you were a fairy. 😁
  14. Amazon and B&M sell Vosene. I alternate using Vosene and Silver shampoo.
  15. I use wright's coal tar or Imperial leather soap.
  16. Still 36.6°C outside in the shade here. Ran the laser thermometer over the patio slabs and they were 50.2°C. 23°C inside with the air con running.
  17. Our sheds are raised up on breeze blocks to allow air flow and the terrier underneath. Keeps the shed floor dry and discourages rats.
  18. Mix 2.5ml of NAF seaweed for horses in their meal each day. Keeps plaque off. 2kg bag for about £10 on Amazon. Works like PlaqueOff for a fraction of the price. Just make sure no plaque is present to start with or give the teeth a scrape first to clean them, then this will keep it off.
  19. Bragging again. 😁
  20. At your age I thought it as complete dribble. 🤷‍♀️
  21. They both dig in the garden. Only one digs holes and one digs hills. 🤷‍♀️
