Today I acquired...........

Darn sarth it kind of falls sadly out of the pump into the glass like a sheep squatting to have a wee

I'm going to Sheffield this weekend, quite looking forward to a proper pint.

Up t"north, apart from the poor souls that think Bud, Coors and Carling is actually beer, we like our ale not quite flat and with a head.

To do this you force the lightly but naturally carbonated ale through a sparkler to liven it up to give a nice refreshing pint with a tight head.

Gross generalisation there,but hey ho, wouldn’t expect anything less from the simple folk oop norf

It is a NATO 7.62mm drill round.

Nope, .303"

Acquired one of these for nothing in perfect condition worth £180 new.

Someone has removed the manifold from the gas taps which costs more to replace than the whole thing is worth, Fuming!

Do you mind!

He is from a long way south of quite a lot of us ...
So that makes him a southerner in our eyes!

The same might be said about you....

Edit:. I'm waiting for @James1979 to chip in...

This is also true and shows up how pointless the Southerner/Northerner nonsense is.

I'm waiting for the New Zealanders to point out that the rest of us are all Northerners!

Do we have anyone here from the Shetlands?

@Norsk anyone north of you?

Anyway back to the thread topic.

No photo 'cause I'm supposed to be working, not on forums.

I've received a few "looks" when I've been in northern pubs and asked them to take the sparkler off the end of the tap so I can have the beer flat as god intended, not forced through a bunch of little holes to make it look pretty for the northerners...

Saved this from the skip where I was working yesterday not sure what to use it for yet but I'm sure I will

Do we have anyone from Iceland or Greenland?

That's all fine until we have another magnetic pole flip then we'll all be northerners...

@Norsk anyone north of you?

Shetlands are directly west of Bergen mate. 36 hours steaming at 9 knots.

I acquired/ won this a few days ago. It’s a brand of tools I’ve never had or used. It’s a Skil 9021, 600w. It feels well built, a bit heavy maybe ( 1.7kg). The on off button is stiff but I’ll get used to it. Can’t say much more about it at the moment, hopefully get to use it over the weekend

You all are from up north.
I am from the South Pole.

Cakes, coffee all for being nice.

 

[brewdexta]

I'm not sure when I acquired this, but it turned up today while looking for another book.

Has anybody got one of these?

these looked useful, every time I go and grab a wheel barrow the tyre is invariably flat. That concrete barrow must be heavy though

I wonder if these meet current H&S standards?
