Re: WHAT ATTRACTED YOUR ATTENTION TODAY?
Wont let me do that either as it uses the same payment method. I thought I would ring them up so I might have chance to tell someone that their system is not working as it should. Silly me!

Aye, Sunak is about to roll the scare tactics out. Classic tactic to bolster the unfortunate believers and pick up a few more gullible and insecure folk who can't or wont think for themselves. Cleverer folk would have a war which has happened in the past.

We are currently at the peak of the latest 11 year solar cycle so events like last nights which is still going on are not uncommon.

Re: Miscellaneous DIY Projects (or bits of jobs)
Thanks Stanley. Final hurdle turned into a marathon rather than a ten minute job. I got a replacement gate latch from Screwfix today, last one in stock. Same model as what came off, however, offering it up I saw a problem. The pin was not bent to the same degree as the original so consequently when ...

Finished the repainting of the gate and have re hung it. Treated it to all new screws and will give it another treat of a new latch.

Kev has sorted me out Stanley, not took long, my marking up and Kevs slicing and its bob on for a fit apart from about an 1/8th of an inch on the top rail, I can cut that with my tenon saw.

Re: TODAY'S PENNINE WEATHER
The gate posts are dry. Gate is in waiting for cutting down to the proper size. Sally has been stone painting to outside back yard wall but that has dried off also. I have the first coat of gloss on the gas cabinet, that says 16 hours between coats!

Re: Miscellaneous DIY Projects (or bits of jobs)
Best laid plans an all that! Running off the guide line sawing straight down!
By power saw, do you mean a circular saw Stanley? If so that would be good I could run that on the front face from the bottom to the top and use the outer edge with the guide.
