    Powerfloat/sponge

    I've just bought myself a new toy hoping to save some aching shoulders & elbows! My question is & I know I'm going to get ripped for asking but I'm going to ask anyway.... At what stage do you use the sponge & what sponge for what product? I've tried it today on some OCR with the far left hand...

    Compressor and Gun for Tyrolean

    I am so going to go down this route, too old to use the tyrolean gun now. Just one silly question though, I've always used the bagged cullomix for a tyrolean finish & washed/sharp sand for a heavier finish (roughcast) what are you guys using with this hopper, normal building sand?

    Faster? Machine or Hand

    Why's that Clemo? I'm seriously thinking about taking the plunge into the machine world, been surfing & lurking for ages listening to everyone's opinion & still non the wiser really? Are they a bitch to use with skim then & do you need different lances for different gear etc?

    Triathlons

    I did the three peaks challenge a few years ago with absolutely no training whatsoever!! I ran down Ben Nevis & fooked my knees & both my big toe nails dropped off!! Won't be doing that again soon. I'm looking into doing JOGLE or LEJOG in a couple of years time as a 50th birthday treat, how long...

    Triathlons

    Can't believe its been 5yrs since I last came on here?! Triathletes are normal people ta :bananahappy: I did the Peak district Tri in July & the swim was in the river Derwent right outside Chatsworth House, well that was the coldest water I've ever swam in!! Nearly put me off doing anymore...

    Triathlons

    I only started swimming/triathlons 3 years ago & I just seem to be stuck at my level now & just can't get any faster!! I always blame my job though as when I'm swimming in the evening I'm already knackered its the same when I've got my morning session too.

    Triathlons

    Hi y'all, its been 5 years since I was last on here! Just wondering if any of you lot participate in Triathlons or swimming? If so how do you find the swimming on your shoulders/arms, mine always feels fatigued before I start?

    whats the best plastering tip/advice youve been giving

    If you have to take a radiator off with TRV's put a 5pence piece in the bottom of the valve. When you then screw the valve down it does shut the water off! I've had too many that still leak even when shut fully off (past the frost setting) in the past.

    I agree with you there matey, apart from licking dustbins that is, lids maybe but not the full bin!! :RpS_wink: I totally agree with you as far as the media are concerned though, like you say, the more they go on about it the more people think it so! Trouble is, with everyone this is, wages are...
