If it all goes wrong obviously that will be be because you did not follow the instructions properly.

Online advice for out local tip (U.K.) is that these are not domestic waste and therefore a £6 charge applies, it does appear they are accepted on that basis though.

Nick’s idea looks interesting as well.

I was posting an adverse comment about Blowlamp’s video but that seems to disappear when quoted.

And there was I worrying about the strange switch positioning for appliances in our new kitchen.😉

Wow I would not even walk anywhere near it!

Can’t wait to see what it looks like when EV charging points are added to that lot. 👹

I have an old AVO (not sure which model) have not used it for years and am sure it used a total of 3 batteries.

I think BLR154 15v Alkaline Batteries are available and advertised as replacements for the original.

I seem to have reached an age (76) where middle aged people think that I need blessing.

They say “bless you” or even worse “ah bless” when I do something pretty normal in life.

I find this demeaning and irritating, if I wanted blessing then I would find a competent person to do it (unlikely anyway).

Shortly I am pretty sure one of these people will find out that I know nearly as many swear words as their children do!

Edited out auto smileys!

I noticed currently there is a headstock casting on eBay.

Headstock

Al’s Hobbies in Milton Keynes might be a potential source, a quick search should find his website

Could have a look here to see if your model is listed:-

Manuals

Have you checked your cookie settings? I find online ordering can be very fussy about that.

Although I tend to think an error message might appear if that is the issue.

Can you think of a Caption?

Yes I am also well aware of my place in the pecking order (and I like a quiet life)🤐

The following message about scammers came from our Neighbourhood Watch yesterday:-

Online Shoppers Beware Emails from Scammers – They are trying to get access to your Cards and Accounts

More and more of us are shopping on line and ordering goods to be delivered direct to our homes.
Criminals know this and are sending scam emails or texts appearing to be from Royal Mail or a courier company, stating that they tried to deliver a parcel but no one was at home and there wasn’t a safe place to leave it, and ask you to click a link to reschedule the delivery.
The link directs you to an authentic looking website, which asks for your full name, address, date of birth and mobile number.
Anyone completing the form will then be prompted to enter their bank or credit card details, which the scammers will then use to drain your bank account.
PROTECT YOURSELF - DON’T CLICK ON ANY LINK WITHIN SUCH EMAILS.

The fraudsters may have obtained your email or mobile number, but they are unlikely to know who you are or where live. The fraudster who sent me an email earlier this week claiming to be from dPd Courier company presumably doesn’t know of my previous fraud investigation experience. The fraudster sent the message from his own personal email account .
Any genuine email from Royal Mail or a Courier company will never be sent from an individual’s personal email account.
If you receive an email which you’re not quite sure about, forward it to the Suspicious Email Reporting Service (SERS): report@phishing.gov.uk
Feel free to share this information and advice with family friends and neighbours and on social media.


Neighbours looking out for each other, and been prepared to report suspicious activity also helps deter offenders and reduce crime. If you want to find out if there is already a Neighbourhood Watch Scheme in your area, or you’d like to find out more, check out their site www.ourwatch.org.uk

I suspect not for much longer if she sees this😢

I have also read that the U.K. will still be implementing it after leaving (can’t find that article).

Yes 2022 is the year it all happens link here to an article:-

Speed

Speed bumps are intrusively noisy if you live in a house near one also some people seem to try and see how fast they can drive over them.
