The exact combination of numbers doesn’t really matter - what matters is that they match the lowest temperature rated cable. So for example if you have a 70deg, 90deg and 120deg all bunched together, it’s irrelevant that the 120deg cable can carry 1000A at full monkey because the 70deg cable...
So, I basically spent lockdown baking. Ish. The entertainment industry was on total stop and whilst I had some big commercial sparky jobs on the go I also had to juggle that with week on/off mini-me and home schooling. Meanwhile, the Aussie (GF) was an essential worker running a chain of...
Assuming that’s a reference to my comment (and that’s fine, no issues!!) having opened the door to comments about flying things at half mast it was either a joke at the expense of the U.K. or some humorous self deprecation about all being blokes of a certain age….. 💊 🤣🤣🤣
I always (try - hope!) start from a position of asking to understand why someone has approached something from a certain angle and then discuss / educate. It's near impossible to have an all-encompassing knowledge of everything electrical these days and anyone who claims to have gets an...
If it aint bust, don't fix it.... rules to live by!
Emoji's are essential on here as that's how we access the various symbols we use like Ω ∆ ° and so on, but anything else is just distraction. If you want to watch cat videos got to InstaTikTube.
I saw an engineer online do the maths - the ship weighed roughly 200,000 tons and was travelling at about 9mph - that equates to something like 800,000kN of force!!!
@Lou - I never fully bother unpacking!! I'm like an expectant mother with a series of go-bags. I generally figure on packing for two weeks at a time in between laundry runs on a longer tour and can throw a pack together in literally five mins if needed.
My brother and I are known as No.1 and No.2 by our dad. We’re convinced he’s brain trained himself that way so as to not have to feel bad when in later-later life if he can’t remember
Have to say - I think your attitude simply portrays your professional ability. ANY competent electrician when faced with an o outlet which has no CPC (however or whichever combination has created that) would not be asking how to justify recording that as a danger.
It does! ‘00’ is basically the fineness of how much the flour gets ground - it’s a staple of anything Italian. I use it for making pasta rather than dough as the difference is minimal (and ‘00’ tends to be more expensive in the U.K.) but the gluten content is about the same.
Always. 1) kids love cooking and this if fun because you can actually watch the dough rise and 2) it’s healthier as there’s no preservative additives. Mine is now 13 and too cool to talk to Dad but wind back the clock and she absolutely loved getting covered in flour!
The unlucky winner is a just starting out young Danish women (U.K. based). She’ll get the dubious benefits of my near undivided attention, 24/7, for six weeks and twelve countries. I’ll be encouraging her to ask any question, teach and mentor to the best of my questionable abilities and go the...
It’s really not hard to make at all -
500g / 1lb bread or pizza flour, sachet of easy bake yeast, tablespoon of sugar, tea spoon of salt. Don’t put the salt directly onto yeast else you’ll kill it, but mix that dry lot all together, add a couple of decent glugs of olive oil, then slowly bring...
