Well over a year since I built my current pc.

Storage is getting tight so finally decided to grab an nvme drive for it.

Cloned the drive and swapped over in an hour.

Now to find a new GPU for my eldest. He's getting into pc gaming more these days

Camera lenses don't last long when my phone's at work 5 days a week

Profiteering at its best. Sell three times the amount of fuel per month and hike the price up 20p a litre. Cnuts

Another discovery whilst tidying the garage.
Will this ever come in handy?

have you any really old fuseboards?

We regularly still use the stuff on the farm, although the worst boards are slowly being changed to MCBs...

Yesterday I acquired another VW Transporter.

Yes some supermarkets have it at at £3.50 for 5 litres my way quite often but that's the standard stuff not the premium

I don't think the Surf cares about premium veg oil or not

 

[Bobupndown]

Now do it by hand . . up/down a slope, on tarmac covered in tiny loose bits, and then come back and tell us again . . .

That's what motor movers are for...

Bit more expensive

Is this an addiction?

Your bottle opener could be close to 100 yrs old! Numbers on it show it could could go back to 1924 - they tweaked the design and changed the numbers later on.

Crown Cork and Seal still a big company (Crown Holdings) - still making "Crown corks" - the logo might just look similiar to a discarded cap

From a quick Google search when I got home with it I think you're right. Funny thing is, the seller had a few of them. I'd like to think it's opened many a bottle in its life and I'll make sure it opens many more!

Our old rewireable fuse board was replaced a couple of years ago

Yes it does.

Trust me, me been there.

That's good then because I found another packet. Not quite so old, but still with all the 30A wire used
Not sure where I got either from, I don't recall ever rewiring a fuse.
