I think you can say as one word,ballcock.Yep, it worked.

Your grandad didn't believe in the stars then?

I've had copper pipe develop pinholes a few times.It's all down to impurities in the material and also the local water.These things are cheaply mass produced in the far east.Glad it was resolved,Brian.

A lot better than a daily mirror on a rusty nail.😉

I thought it sounded like a flexi tap connector,luckily it had a ballofix valve under it.Makes fitting baths a lot easier but they do fail sometimes.

My blank ,blank ,blank is in working order Kalos.It's called a valve nowdays.I've never changed the terminology either.😉

Quite a cheapo day out,£10.60 return on the boat and £12 return cable car,that's for 2 of us.2 chicken wraps and chips in Nandos was dearer at £24.

That cable car was bloody high,lol.

Back in my "white van man" plumbing days I was elite on the boat in the last pic.The Captain never invited me for cocktails though.

The redeveloped Barking riverside yesterday.

He sounds a bit crackers to me.

Morning all,we're taking our 3 year old grandaughter to the new Barking riverside station this morning.From there the Thames Clipper to the O2,1 hr softplay in the O2 and a return cable car across the Thames to the Excel.Returning on the Thames Clipper.A new experience for us also and being linked to TFL we get 50% with our freedom passes.The grandaughter is free.I remember Barking riverside when I used to play there when I was a kid.It was wasteland dotted with air raid shelters,abandoned gun emplacements and a derelict power station where we used to climb up the coal conveyor belts.Not very H&S now,lol.Great fun on the beaches of the Thames.

That must be the ultimate brain freeze.

You should have gone again ,it'd be a Harrison double.

The green bean chef must be very versatile.

Now that looks good.I was thinking on the same lines as Indi.Essex supermarkets are quite diverse nowdays,I'll start looking😊.

Does that include ones stomach.🤢

Obviously you've got duel nationality now.Got to give your area a try🙂

Anything like Welshcakes?When we went to Cardiff last year there was a queue for them stretching outside.Bought a few but found them a bit soft, and sweet.Now,my OHs bread pud is another story,lovely jubbly.

Look for the ping pong balls.

Yeah,and they do posher handbags on Cunard.

Sorry sir we've run out of Caesars.

If there's carrots on the menu you must be happy surely😉
