Me neither...

That's Keppel Street by the way...used to be the Tatts (Tattersalls Hotel) when I was a lad and it was anything but salubrious back then!!

Only if you poke a piece of unshielded copper wire into one of those slots whilst it is plugged up to the mains...

I can manage a pic of the job given time... Stitch comes out tomorrow and the finger is healing nicely. It'll still need a bandage to protect it which is a bit of a hassle since I'm riding in the local 3hr Enduro MTB race on Sunday...which means…

JohnR said: Although I didn't need to use a spade -- that must have been a heck of a job. Even after eight years, just thinking about it gives the both of us the shivers...

Finished the job over the weekend. Most happy. Still trying to get sawdust out of the scab after yesterdays interminable sanding of shellac and calcimine from old Baltic Pine lining boards.

No photos since one smashed fingertip looks very unspectacular under a layer of stitch, scab and steristrip...but I can offer detailed instructions if you'd like to try a DIY reproduction! Just been out to the shed for the first time. Turns out …

JohnR said: This is what I mean by a double layer. In retrospect, wider batts would be better. The wall needs sarking and also under the rafters but that's after I fix the other part of the roof. That has to be the cleanest roof s…

I feel your pain. We had a similar sort of roof just without the bitumen. It was fairly awful but it didn't leak much because it had been laid directly over the original corrugated iron. Well...nailed to hardwood battens that were themselves naile…

Some is better than others...I prefer the heavy duty woven plastic versions rather than the reinforced paper versions. It costs a bit more but is lighter and stronger and much easier to handle. http://www.insulation.com.au/products/reflective-foil-…

Not going to make it this year...October is travel season for us and this year it involves Yanga National near Balranald, a mountain bike race/piss-up around the Silverton Pub near Broken Hill and a visit to a mate that has just bought into the two …

JohnR said: I'm not arguing, I said can you use two layer instead of one. Seems you can, saw a video on it. So I'm going to try 1.5+2.5 in part of the ceiling and see if we can tell any difference. You will notice the difference...either …

As much as you can fit in the walls without compressing batts, typically a 1.5 batt plus a building wrap (foilboard might be higher). In the ceiling...I'd go for at least R4 if you can...more the better. But the same rules of non-compression apply.

Errrm...ever priced Tontine polyester pillows or quilts (or similar) Polyester thermal batts are made of the same thing but they come in packs of twenty and don't come in a practical cotton cover... http://www.target.com.au/p/essentials-cotton…

Guide rail is extra...and it won't trigger the vacuum - you have to do that yourself. I'd prefer the corded version.

Spill something into the back of the old one...

You're good...that was in tune!

I just learned I'm qualified to start a helicopter... Though perhaps not the same helicopter twice.

Sometimes there's a point. Mostly it's about maintaining copyright but occasionally it's also about the music (especially if the artist gives a rats). Most remasters simply wash some of the noise out of the recordings because that's easy to do as …
