    Best Sledge Hammer for D.I.Y.?

    Can't stand the things, perhaps mine is particularly terrible but I feel like my arms and shoulders have been shaken apart for days after if I use mine. I use anything else - especially a breaker drill. Or a breaker bar - tap it in with a club hammer then lever apart.

    Taylor Swifts wedding.

    Have you found this button?... Best thing we did was cancel the TV licence and stop watching live TV. Can't stand it when I go round people's houses and they just have the idiot box spewing stuff at them all day. Watch something you want then switch it off, have a conversation or go out.

    Theres alot of Pidgin talk.

    Nah, spouting insults doesn't win debate. If it did you'd have a bulging trophy cabinet by now.

    Burnham the new PM

    Why would he do that? They're all full of future benefit claimants, the only people who still vote labour. Do people still actually believe that they want to stop the boats? The Smash The Gangs stuff is all lies, they never had any intention of stopping anything. The Labour Party serves The...

    chimney noise

    If you watch outside for a few minutes when you hear it, you'll see birds coming and going if that is the cause.

    Theres alot of Pidgin talk.

    Any chance you could re-word that statement so it makes any sense at all?

    Theres alot of Pidgin talk.

    On the contrary, often the open-border fanatics are the ones who dwell on the empire days, spouting the concept that we somehow owe the people that we ruled over centuries ago the right to come here and take what they like from us. Modern day patriots are seeking that we look after ourselves...

    Burnham the new PM

    There were some interesting stats a couple of years ago based on sewage volumes. Sounds silly and weird, but sewage is something that remains reasonably constant per person regardless of wealth and whether you're trying to stay below the radar. The figures suggested that the official...

    Burnham the new PM

    You've spent far too long in US-centric leftie indoctrination echo chambers. The vast proportion of UK citizens don't care in the slightest about Trump, good or bad. He's not our president, and Farage is not one and the same, indeed the two have had significant differences on a number of major...

    Burnham the new PM

    Absolutely no chance. It was an anti-Starmer vote, not pro-Burnham or pro-Labour. It was not a resurgence of any kind for the dying wreck of the Labour party. The country's desperate. Any change at all is being seized upon, in the hope that the next idiot will be slightly less terrible than...

    Henry Nowak inquest...

    People spending handouts on taxed stuff doesn't make an economy, it's just a Ponzi scheme. People have to work, produce stuff and pay tax on their income.

    Does it have one of those spinning tops on the chimney pot? https://chimneycowls.uk/spinning-chimney-cowl-when-to-use-how-to-size-maintain-2025-guide/

    Best way to get a vent pipe through a tiled roof?

    Yeah I know, I'm probably being over-cautious. I didn't want to join them at ground level due to the risk of a sewage blockage looping through the rainwater pipe, bypassing the sewage treatment plant. But I suppose there's no risk in joining them 2m up, it would spew out of all toilets...

    Best way to get a vent pipe through a tiled roof?

    It's not, it's at the other end of the garden. It's airtight, with a tube from a big air pump passing through a gland into it, which aerates and circulates it all. This pumped in air all needs to go somewhere, the only route is up the incoming poo pipe on the house and the outlet pipe which is...

    Best way to get a vent pipe through a tiled roof?

    Yep. Worked out after I asked that it would cover the battens to the sides. A shame they're so visible but it would do the job.

    Compost Hopper

    We have a beast of a Bosch chipper that turns any hedge cuttings into what looks like wooden £2 coins and assorted other bits. We chuck it all in the borders, it does a great job of keeping the weeds down, it feeds the soil and the birds have a great time hunting through it for insects.

    Let's all agree that tax has absolutely nothing to do with Henry Novak.

    Compost Hopper

    I've had a pallet of bricks in my garden for a couple of years. I just unpacked and moved it today. The pallet beneath has turned really light and flimsy, it came up from the soil in pieces when I tried to pull it out. It's basically turned to something like polystyrene. I wouldn't recommend...

    It's more Whereveristan. Just a complete mess of different fragmented "communities" who mostly hate every other community and their host nation. They're all racist but we're not allowed to be.

    Henry Nowak inquest...

    Think about it. Someone who pays less in income tax than they receive in benefits... that tax that they pay on all those other things all comes from money that we gave them. So they're still net beneficiaries. If I give you £10, you spend £8 on stuff you want then give me back £2 then I've...
