    how soon will Trump back down over tariffs

    White House is on DefKetchup 1 warning after Canada got some retaliation in first. Tesla has been removed from access to the EV incentives programme. $43 mil per year... bye bye. The Mango Mussolini is abso furious.

    Kitchen and Dining Room into one.

    update: not much progress- been under the weather with man flu. However, I am feeling pretty good today about my very mediocre DIY skills. The last pic above shows where the dining room floor ends... I had to cut the planks longways to fit to the then dining room wall, so all tongues cut off...

    Extending a t&g floor after taking a wall down.

    Hi All, I have taken a wall down, and retained a not very old T&G oak floor one side. The tongues were all cut on the last row against the wall when that floor went down, so nothing to T&G to in the new side. Of course I can get a threshold, but I am willing to do the graft if needed to...

    OMG indeed

    NATO's not 'an army', it's a coalition. There's no need for a European army. A 'European Treaty Organisation', maybe. UK France Germany, Norway, Sweden and Poland might well commit to that. That's a well bloodier nose than Ukraine can give (and boy, they have done well); with 2 nuclear powers to...

    OMG indeed

    If I were Goldberg, I'd say, "So if there was no classified intel on the chat, I can include it all in my next book? Or put it on social media- if you're positive it's all unclassified? That ok? Shall I wait till noon tomorrow for a reply; or can I just go public now?"

    OMG indeed

    The Houthies are not some machete and Molotov Cocktail outfit. They have sophisticated weaponry from Iran and others. If there really was strike package intel on the chat, the pilots on the strike were in the crosshairs had the baddies been read in.

    If you think Trump's actions do not concern us here in UK, I'm concerned for you.

    Kitchen and Dining Room into one.

    Plastering and (most) decorating done, old flooring lifted. Just need my gasman to disconnect the hob and the rest of the old kitchen can go.

    How safe is the Tesla auto-drive system

    An aeroplane 'flying itself' needs, for 85/90% of the journey, only to keep in a 2 mile wide corridor at the correct altitude. Cars... bit more involved.

    Trump is talking sense

    Well we did it for 50 years, and other than a few very short lived real crises, it was never much of a possibility. That's what deterrence gets you.

    Trump is talking sense

    I was a serving airman 7 minutes flying time from the Warsaw Pact border in 1983. Whilst we trained every day for the possibility, I don't recall sh1tting bricks about it.

    Why is Trump so keen on Putin

    Ironic. President Musk's own AI program 'Grok', says that the Mango Mussollini is 75-85% likely to be a Russian asset. I think it took his brown nosing of Putin into account.
