  1. Just a food for thought, the term "Little people" was used on Yes Prime Minister to described the general public.
  2. You're right, I was going to give my input on electric heating in houses, but we need this to go to another forum topic!
  3. Don't tell me, he either kept falling off his bike, got ridiculed for wearing spandex, or he had his bike pinched!

    No they are not, but when you are responsible for providing a service, these costs have to be acquired from either moorings or rent.
  5. I see your landing hasn't improved, as you have buckled up the end of your wings AGAIN!
  6. I do like the bloke, but boat or car. the poor man is cursed. I think he should go with a push bike.
  7. Unfortunately the packaging outweighs the people who would send it back if the paint was scratched. Also does anyone else think the Amazon emblem looks like the underside of something else!
  8. If you ever go on youtube and watch magnet fishing and see what low life's dump in our rivers, I think my rear end complies when humans are a part of nature and are equally natural!
  9. Surely that is clearly fraud and misinterpretation of what is on offer.

    Unfortunately if you moor at a place that has electric posts, these come at a cost that has to passed on to anyone that moors there.
  11. That's your problem, expansion vessels aren't that expensive, I have come across heating engineers who not only inflate their call out charge, but charge 200% on materials!
  12. A match made in heaven, you should of married her! (after legal divorce proceedings of course)
  13. I'm still hoping that a bunch of drunken youths that are hiring a bath tub that has seen better days, take that ridiculous looking Potter Heigham bridge of it's moorings so to speak! Or we could watch Griff take the bridge out backwards
  14. That's the problem, too many so called heating engineers are fitting combi boilers that are not suitable for the premises and simply running off with the money. When you have 15mm pipe running throughout the property, 2 showers, a bath, washing machine, dishwasher and a basic family of 4 to severely drop pressure in this type of hot water system, I can see how a person of one with a single shower wouldn't have any problems!
  15. For me combi boilers are a pain in the back side, and customers and other plumbers have agreed with me on this one. Having a basic boiler with gravity hot water system and pumped central heating with a header top up tank, is the best way to go in my opinion.
  16. When I look at the bottom picture, a submarine term does apply here. Dive dive dive!
  17. Do you know a good solicitor? Sarcasm aside, I thought that with the friends you know that could look after boats blind folded, the problems you have with your boats would not ever be much of a problem!
  18. I look forward to your diagram and explanation of how it has been done, and how it should be!
  19. You do seem to have a lot of issues with your boats that you own, and at the end of the day, it does make your wallet a lot lighter. I think the lesson of today is that if you can afford it and you are not too knowledgeable about boats, then you keep the marine engineers employed. If you are on a budget, learn your boating upkeep skills well!
  20. But now power steering seems to be the norm in a lot of cars, we have got lazy. Along with auto parking, braking, lights on, high beam off, etc, etc!
  21. I think Robin has a doppelganger, as I'm sure I saw him last year driving a very polished Range Rover and along with feeding the steering wheel through his hands, he really looked 'by the book' Robin to me!
  22. For me syndicates are a no no. I have to own the boat whole or nothing because I would rather clear up after myself and find the boat as I left it and not after someone else! I appreciate that there are a few syndicates on here who respect the other owners and leave the boat as they find it. But my boat would be like my house, I wouldn't want anyone else unless family inside it.
