The Retirement Thread

[PaulSB]

Hang on.....Billy Graham has been dead 2 years.
Is that why its called a revival meeting

Not far off. @Paulus is at the O2, London.

@Dave7 thanks I shall return tomorrow. I glanced at the Highland Early but thought it was £14.99. I'll take another look 'cos at £12.99 it's a bargain.

I usually buy either the Islay single or the Highland blended.

We drink Highland Earl as a bog standard whisky with a mixer eg lemonade. Mrs D prefers it to Bells or Grouse.
Thier malts are good though.

Really? Which one? I didn't see it in our local ALDI.

He beat you to it, watch for him offering to sell you a bottle or two at half as much again!

The sh1t engineers arrived.
Things are complicated.
The park at the back is owned by Warrington Council.
United Utilities say, in that case its not thier problem..... its WBC.
WBC claim the land is technically owned by the MOD.
I have deeds showing WBC purchased the land from MOD in 1982.
I am saying......I DONT GIVE A SH1T WHO OWNES IT, JUST GET IT SORTED

Seems as though no-one gives a schitt.

The danger is the gases given off by the stuff. They're colourless, odourless & tasteless. But they can be deadly at the same time.

Any water courses nearby, include any surface water drains. If there are it becomes an environmental issue. Might mean escalating it to enviroment agency level to get a resolution.

Yep that's how I use it. Whisky and water.

Don't put water in whisky. Water is filthy stuff- fish sheet in it!

Its definitely not odourless☹

The ones you can't get are the dangerous ones. That's why those doing the job day in day out have monitors.

It's responsible for two deaths a year. They tend to fall face down into, having been overcome by the gases.

Are you able to hire a set of rods, try and get some flow again?

The problem is 500 yards away..... across the park, towards the main sewer. Its tree root ingress (i think). Its going to be a civils job to line the pipes.

 

[classic33]

Have you tried 01925 23 7000, asking for Louise Beardmore(Customer Services)?

Edited to add
Would you be able to get a red food dye into the system. Shame them, when it can be seen breaking the surface. And it won't be just you reporting it either.

Billy Graham revival meeting?

 

[Mo1959]

I am first.

A chilly one up here this morning, but dry for the day by the looks of it. I will go out for a quick walk then afraid it is delivery waiting for much of the day as I have two separate deliveries due at different times.

In my quest to get more than a couple of hours sleep, I have splurged on a Tempurpedic mattress, but even although they are a bit expensive, they don't always get rave reviews so I've maybe wasted unnecessary money..........we shall see.

 

[Drago]

I have risen!

It's either foggy of I have cataracts, not sure which.

Busy day. My Dad is coming to stay tomorrow so ill straighten up and deep clean the house. It also means I won't be about this place so much in the coming days.
