Hope all goes well.
 
Having to power wash myself tomorrow and never did it before, can you recommend and good product to get rid of the staining ? Do you put the product on a while before the power wash ?
I power wash first which gets rid of most of the greeen stuff

But it has no effect on black spots - this need patio cleaner
The stuff I used last year needed diluting 50:50 and spreading gently with a sprayer or watering can then leaving for 1-2 hours
then washing off with lots of water

I just follow the instruction - it's a bit like marriage apparently:whistle:
 
Got the album when it first came out in early '73 when I had just turned 15, coincided with losing my V Card as they call it today.

I remember the album much more than the latter which was not so great. :laugh:

One of the best album's ever imo. :smooch:

My Mum used to call this track "The Cave Music" as it was the background to some program on the BBC (I think - not much channel choice back then) at the time about caving.

Got this from my Mum's catalog in the old days - she offered to buy me 'a record' from it as a reward for something

WHen it arrived I played it - the needle was rising and falling by over an inch due to distortion on the plastic but I played it over and over - never heard anything like it

WIsh You Were Here was also a problem - would only play witha 2p piece blutaked to the head to weigh it down:eek::eek:
sounded even better

Puzzle game procrastinator!
Now I am realising how many wifi devices I have. I have changed the wifi settings on 4 so far, but there are several more upstairs that I haven't done yet.
I did the 2 tablets upstairs then settled down to watch today's Catalunya stage. No joy... Ah, yes - my Chromecast dongle needed to be set up again for the new wifi connection. Now done.

So far that is 6 devices. My old phone needs doing once I have charged it.

My Canon camera has a wifi connection but the camera in my new phone is so good that I can't see me using the dedicated camera very often so I might leave that alone. Ditto for 2 old laptops which might not be used again.
