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

[addjunkie]

Went Christmas shopping today for the Mrs. Visited a house clearence, antiquie type place of an acquaintance, and got this before it left his van. Not a Gernster but will be handy for something. Did get the Mrs a present too eventually!

Thanks for the advice @Hood

I had faded Matt black areas, makes a big difference.

You can use Carstens web space in the same way. To save buying and posting them. People can just download the 800mb to their own stick?

I’m sure Carsten can password it or something so only those who’ve bunged in the hat can download it?

Sounds easier, how do we go about that? The whole package which includes workshop manuals,users manuals and spares manuals for blowers,chainsaws,hedgecutters and concrete saws is 800mb

First step we need to use one of those services for sending large files - from there I'll get it, put it up and share the link here.

Who brought that up?

Carsten

from time to time in the workshop

Give him the login details for your dropbox account or suchlike. Hide all your porn first though. He needs his right arm functional.

Give him the login details for your dropbox account

1. I have a server on that I can place it for all to download w/o password;
2. I can't however, give admin rights to anybody for an upload;
3. I don't see myself able as to teach someone an sftp-upload who don't know what that is and doesn't have the nessessary tools on his pc - no offence of cause;

MediaFire

MediaFire is a simple to use free service that lets you put all your photos, documents, music, and video in a single place so you can access them anywhere and share them everywhere.

You can run it quite happily with adblockers on and it's not intrusive at all. Very well behaved, in fact. I've been using it for years and haven't ever seen a single ad, yet others complain.

Great!

Could you please be so charming as to explain the procedure to Bob?

I would then pick it up there and make it available to everyone - that way they only get ONE IP address, computer fingerprint, first name, last name, email address and not everyone's.

……These as a tip from an old lady. I’m guessing she didn’t like them.

 

[Puglet1]

What a kind old lady.
Be aware, I heard a similar story many years ago.
Somebody was given some Brazil nuts by an old gentleman, it wasn’t until he finished them that he realised they should have been Chocolate Brazils.
Apparently, the old man didn’t have any teeth Enjoy!

That's not nearly as gross as fake walnut whips

At least you got most of them, my mum had a pack of 6 sweet pancake things, she gave them to Mrs Robo because "she didn't like the taste of them" there were only 2 left in the packet

Tonight I acquired a gem that will go down in our family history for aeons .
Alison has day four woman flu " A dying swan " with at least a dozen encores a day )

Yesterday I took a 5 kg frozen turkey out of the minus 22 oC chest freezer in my mancupboard to start defrosting it last night .
Where did I put it , in a big roasting dish in the oven as it's the only place we have that's big enough and safe from Jasper the cat .

Family came visiting this afternoon brought pizza etc with them , Alison comes into the lounge and does yet another dying swan act .
Suddenly I start to smell something is not good in the kitchen , She's only gone and turned the oven on 180 fan to do the pizza's , not ever thinking of looking to see if the oven is empty .

The plastic covering the turkey had just started to crinkle and flake . I managed to rescue it , do the pizza's then stick a temp probe in the thickest part of the flesh at stable 38 oC so reset the probe temp and alarm and cooked it to 87 oC in the inner leg .

Oh forgot, I had to rescue the neck ( in a poly bag ) out the body cavity and the rest of the giblets out the neck flap cavity (also in a poly bag) .
By the time it had cooked through it was a lovely colour and moist . We are having our first Crimbo nosh tomorrow with family obviously we're going cold turkey for the event . Then an official one here on the 25th with our Ukrainian refugee friends .

I think I'll be doing the cooking though .

Tonight I acquired one of these... been looking for ages, but the prices were far more than I wanted to pay. This one popped up with a Nikon iTTL adapter, but it might not be late enough. No matter, the series are superb lighting tools and hopefully it talks to the Nikons enough to make sense of them. Even if not, they're capable of producing superb results just on their own auto-thyristor settings.

It’s easy, just bring your pc to me when you drop off my Stolly and SWMBO will sort it

What about putting it on a usb stick & then posting it to one of our many computer literate members so that they can upload it to a hosting site?

I'm another who would be interested in a copy of the manuals & I've no issue with donating to @8ob to cover his costs or a charity of his choosing.

I have ordered a fistful of 1gb USB sticks, I will try and download the info onto them or get @sako243 to do it. I will get a stick to @25.4_mechanic so he can launch it into space and send the rest to @James1979 ,@roofman . @drjim and yourself. Whoever else wants the info in the future can drain it out of Carsten's cloud..

We're sodding off to the Highlands today. Safe from your tentacles as I know how much you dislike driving long distances.

Thank you. Send a PM with PayPal etc and I’ll move some beer tokens across

Interesting, I've been looking for something reasonably-priced to use on the inner wings on the Firenza - they're satin black and I don't want them getting shiny. Last time I looked there was only some hideously-expensive thing at about £100 for a thimble-full.

It works well on my bike and skid lid.
Removing the splatted insects is a breeze, spray on, leave 20 or 30 seconds and wipe off with a microfibre cloth.
