LOL and Chinese Buffet in the same sentence ends up here for me.

The problem might be proving you are not "trading". My daughter lost a lot of weight and sold pretty much her entire wardrobe on ebay, and the total came to well over £1000. Having not kept receipts she would have a hard time proving she was selling-on her own clothes.

In Scotland rent increases are capped at 3% which suggests free-market increases would be somewhat more than that.

The ultimate point is to convince us that our own politicians are completely incompetent to handle a pandemic and we need to hand UK sovereignty over to the WHO, so they can manage the next one without having to concern themselves with unimportant matters like national law and health autonomy.

You could try turning the pump round to try it in the other direction - there's normally valves on either side of it so you don't need to drain the system. I'm sure you're aware of that since you fitted a new pump 🙂 The radiator not heating up sounds like an airlock in the system preventing hot water flowing through that one. They can be a pig to get rid off because of course you can't see where they are hiding. There's various videos in YouTube how to deal with them but the basic idea is to force water through the system expelling any air pockets. Make sure your system has inhibitor in it as corrosion inside the radiators or boiler creates gas which can eventually form another airlock.

Assuming the previous pump was pointing in the same direction and the heating was working OK, you may as well leave as is. If you have thermostatic valves on your radiators they may rattle at times if the flow is in the opposite direction to what was expected when they were installed. Also, if it's an open system with a header tank in the loft you may find the pump pushes water into the header tank rather than round the system as the pressure differential has reversed.

Hi, Do you mean you found it relatively easy to pick up permissions in Fife?

I had that too, not terribly useful for transactions between private individuals.

Fill yer boots 🙂 (When you buy a key they will send you a link to download the program)

Hopefully he'll be taking a good supply of Depends 🙂

https://www.androidpolice.com/best-podcast-apps/#luminary Check out "Into the wilderness" by Byron Pace (used to be the Pace brothers, don't know what happened to Darryl" They cover a wide range of hunting and conservation subjects in depth. They have a YouTube channel of you want a taster: I particularly enjoyed this episode:

So you're against the deliberate suppression of information which would allow other people to make their own informed decisions? Good to know.

Well, let's see how that plays out for Campbell going forward. https://www.techspot.com/news/78896-youtube-demonetizes-anti-vaccination-channels.html

That's assuming vehicle-to-grid technology isn't making the decision for them.

Where exactly is that part that proves he raped her?

Not so sure about that... https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/05/17/fertility-rates-are-collapsing/ "The current UK fertility rate – the average number of children per woman – stands at 1.6. This is significantly below the “replacement rate” of 2.1, and continues to fall" Yet the UK population grew from 56m in 1976 to 67m today. Any guesses as to how that happened?

I guess this means rolling out the covid vaccine to the bulk of the world's population was a vast ecological mistake that will help destroy the planet in the end. Hopefully they will never do anything like that again 🙂

I've used a few cans of this and really like it - gives a lovely smooth finish over mdf skirting etc. Unfortunately they only do it in matt and satin... https://www.screwfix.com/p/zinsser-self-priming-paint-satin-white-1ltr/13040

Sad loss of a great talent.

c'mon, no trip to Japan is complete without trying Fugu 🤢 https://www.finedininglovers.com/article/japans-poison-puffer-fish-fugu

The power demand of the boiler and pump is, I think, fairly low and could be run off a small generator, or even for a while from a 12v battery and inverter. I'm sure people would start coming up with all sorts of innovative solutions if power cuts became a regular thing. Can't see that working with a heat pump... I wouldn't mind seeing the return of the paraffin heaters we had when I was a child - lovely warm smelling fumes in the bathroom on bath night 🥴 Ah wait, paraffin is evil dinosaur juice too - won't be allowed that either.

Um, Michelle Obama 🤣

Nice offer, kudos to you 👍 I have the same gun in the same choke so thanks for explaining why I can't hit anything far away - thought it was me and it was the gun all along 😁 Still doesn't explain all the close-ups though...

nah, Trump will get ~163 million votes, but spaghetti-brained Biden or whoever they put forward in his place (Big Mike?) will get 196 million. Only a few hardened conspiracy theorists will notice a slight problem with the arithmetic there.

If he's jailed, his experience of the American penal system might turn out like Jeffrey Epstein's.
