What are you doing/done today

[Toneyz]

What are you doing/done today ? not a direct poll but I thought that it would be interesting to see a snapshot of a day in the life of a E.F. member did it go to plan what problems did you overcome.

Go away you English pig dog!
I fart in your general direction.

The whole things on YouTube.. hint hint nudge nudge

That's not what we call it over here but whatever gets you through the day Marvo!

I've seen it used in the UK but quite a few years ago, maybe is gone out of fashion.

Funnily enough we had a recent legalisation of the type of hemp you're referring to which is known locally as 'dagga'.

That park bench is getting closer. I tried it out the other week, shouting and swearing at the passing traffic, with a bottle in my hand. Quite therapeutic.

Course one doesn't have to do it, with a bottle of meths;

Hi Marvo: Plumbers hemp & Boss white sealant is still readily available over here but I think it's mostly Industrial sites that use it nowadays.
For smaller stuff, I think it's all PTFE tape used mostly now.

 

[Paul228]

Yup, hemp and boss white is still available. Screwfix sell it.

 

[Dave OCD]

Boss white has that smell that you always associate with plumbers, didn't there used to be a jointing compound called Stag or something like that ? Proper stinky stuff as I recall.

 

[Midwest]

Wot about tallow? Seem to remember when using it cutting out holes, or cutting threads, kinda made me feel hungry in a cruel (whale) type way

 

[Specialist]

@Dave OCD: Yes mate hated the smell, they still make stage as well.

@Midwest : Years ago, i don't think there was a spark on site that didn't have a pot of tallow in their box / bag.
Always made me think of Sunday dinners when it got warm.

This is what I was up 2 yesterday. Trying to get it finished.

 

[D00DY_T00DY]

Nice easy morning revising for my regs exam.

Passed my regs exam.
Cleared my car out (filled the wheelie bin from the carp) gave the inside a wipe, cleaned my windows; so clean you can see through them!
Learnt how to properly fold down my rear seats after a year and a half of owning my car

Bought a new tool bag and tools as "a reward for passing my exam" (that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it )

Tomorrow, I'll be taking the Kawasaki up the coast. Drive all the way to Whitby for a bag of chips.

No chippies in hull? :/

Sounds like a pleasant day, I'll be working in an incinerator tomorrow. Hope they switch it off first.
