reread it i have two 130mph cars but it is hard to buy a nice car that will not do summat like that speed. i was questioning the need for such powerful cars in my 150mph remark. i made a statement and did not ask a question because it takes away from the thread. the motorbike. ive never...

i could be, but i would rather not :wink: i have the need for people to 'see' it rather than prove them wrong. i should have been a teacher, teach rugby... but i would have squeezed too many necks and got the sack.. :shock: :roll: sad but true.. :oops:

in the other linked threads, the polstyrene blocks mentioned are called beko blocks. a friend of mine used them self build to construct a big basement. they worked really well. the building inspector was really scared of the 'newness' of the blocks and insisted on having a cast ceiling with...

it is amazing to me that some obviously clever people cannot see how this would work. i certainly dont mean to be rude in anyway, to anyone. we have been set a question that has tried to close off the loopholes but it is still seen as open by some. look at it differently and you will...

ive never had a speeding ticket but i honestly dont know how. i own two big motorbikes and would use them on any journey where it is practical as opposed to a car, no matter the distance. the bike will shorten any journey time because traffic does not slow you down but i noticed that on a...

well apart from what did the romans ever do for us. :oops:

john D if the belt controlled the speed of the wheels backwards, forwards or in a samba rhythm. the thrust will still make the plane move forward. i know thats not what the question said but if you think of it in the ^^above^^ way, it may help.

agreed. the type of insulation might store/suck water but once bricks soak up a certain amount of water they cannot soak up anymore and shed the rest no matter how long it rains for. this is how concrete roof tiles work as opposed to clay. i think you have a leak somewhere into the...

or land on water... or get thunderbirds out with those little buggies :oops:

trains defo yes. maglev ones.. cars no, we should limit power to about 100bhp, thats enough to drive most cars to a 100mph. modern technology has been used to make cars massively more powerful than they ever need to be, that same tech could have been used to keep the power about the same but...

i'll bet that bransTon fella dont get himself in a pickle over it :D billy you put up a thread about job seekers (i think it was you anyway) where i live the manager of the local burger king is on housing benefit and income support.. the gov/tax pays to keep our american/global...

loads of them use their wives as staff and there is nothing wrong with that if they work. the son tho, how does he get time to do research for his dad when he has to do his own uni work and still get lashed with his tax dodging, gap year taking, peru bound dont know what i want to do yet-so...

i have been trying to remember how long ago i saw a fishing boat pulled by kites in greece. i has to be more than 20 yrs the boat in greece was quite small but it had a three kite arrangement, with the main pulling rope/line running through the centre of the two lower kites. like a ww1...

been there m8 i got used to that by the end of my hols because they dont seem to care.

i suppose they'll be looking at this thread wondering if they could have done things better :wink:

i just been in a mixed ward and they wanted me to use a bed pan... call me old fashioned but i would rather walk to the ward wi me arse hanging out of my gown the be pootin and blutt-ing around women.. we need to move towards single sex. (i dont care, i just care how the women feel)

didnt orville and wilber use a frame affair to take off and skids to land :) no wheels for them to worry about :wink:

mega be cool m8 its not that type of thread, its a game visited by people who know already, or will soon fall into line. you are right of course in the theory of the op's question. im interested because although it might seem unlikely a conveyor or catapult might be used in future to...

without seeing it, iwould think that your problem maybe a leak into the cavity rather than through the brickwork itself. worth a look at the roof by the chimney because although you would solve the evident problem as you've described, your insulation will still be get wet and so wont be working...

the worry about spalling is damp. you can do any of the choices mentioned it just depends on how you want it to look. i have dashing on part of my house but im not keen on the look. good luck with it
