Moan, moan, moan----get it off your chest or have a chat

[Diane Clement]

This is a moan against myself as I can't find the small thread in which I had some seed to share, from Marcus Harvey.

Lesley, the easy way to do it is to go into your own profile (by clicking on your name, or on the Profile tab at the top of the page), then going to 'Show the last posts of this person' then you will find your posting.

its on the following link

Thanks Diane,
I'd not looked at that link before. My God! 268 pages! I should be banned!

Lesley,

It's in the "Plants Wanted" section.  Third topic.

[Lesley Cox]

Seeds to give away = plants wanted? Wonder how it got there?

[Paul T]

No point asking US... you're the one that created it. 

We have things in our house that have been carefully put away so that we don't lose them.... and never seen again.  I reckon that in at least a few places there are interdimensional portals from the interiors of draws and cupboards that open out into places unknown.  There must be a BIG pile of things at the end of those portals by now, because the amount of things that we've put away to keep safe and never seen again is truly astounding!!

So your filing something slightly wrong is not that bad!!

Some tools have the ability to use these portals or wormholes even without any cupboard. Adjustable spanners and 13mm spanners to give a couple of examples.

However, there is an alternative theory. In short:
The adjustable spanner is the larval stadium of the wire coat hanger.
When the spanner is old enough it crawls away into hiding and turns into an invisible chrysalis.
Later it emerges as the imago i.e. the coat hanger.

Happy New Year everybody

I would like to believe you Gote ... but it's a wrench!   

Adjustable spanners do possess jaws ... perhaps they just eat themselves?

[gote]

That is another theory. perhaps the adjustables eat the fixed??

What joy,11.30pm on New Years Eve and the central heating boiler died.

It is a bracing 7c in the lounge after the coldest night of the winter so far.Takes me back to my childhood with ice on the windows.

No engineer until tomorrow and then I expect it will be a wait for parts.

I was worried about the gas bills now its whether my clivia's will be alright.

[David Nicholson]

Tony, hope you warded off the chill with an extra drop or two of the amber liquid and that you get your parts quickly.

[Tony Willis]

David

I was already warmed up which is why I did not notice it had gone off.

Luxury, b****y luxury!  I'll be down for a heat!

No, I jest, most times I can get this room up to 14 degrees 

Look on the bright side:  What a bit of luck you are in England, Tony... fat chance of an engineer before next Wednesday up here... let alone parts! 
Fingers crossed for a change in the weather to aid your warming until repairs are effected .....suggest retreat to bed with flask of tea, sandwiches and wooly hat. 

[David Nicholson]

....... and more amber liquid!!

[Maggi Young]

....... and more amber liquid!!

 That would be the TEA, then ?

[David Nicholson]

Not likely!!!!
