Next Forum Drinks - Friday 12th October at the George Canning


Recommended Posts

The world seems to be turning excesively widdershins today, but I'm sure it'll calm down eventually.


Lovely to see everyone, and mucho aplodjoth if I spouted far too much nonsense last night.

Once again I can but echo Sean's words at how good it was to see some new faces and I had such a blimmin' good time.

GG you're lovely and I really hope it all works out, in fact it will, I can feel it in my waters ;), and yes, our Ems is a superstar.


Right, snags and The Wire series 2 for me. Anyone up for the rugger tonight?

Thanks for last night folks but?


Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! My head really hurts! Why would the gods do this to me? All I did was have fun and drink too much.


Oh cruel world. At least thou hast brought forth ibuprofen and bacon sarnies from thy bounty.


hmm bounty?

Excellent to see everbody old and new. Personally I am still reelng from Bagpuss' revelation concerning her feelings towards ginger hair :))


There was much talk (from me?) about meeting at the CPT for the rugby in that its in ED and the EDT wll be rammed full of people and Hoopers is a little off the beaten track for many.


What do folks think? I'll go anywhere, given half the chance.


Also up for Boothby Graffo at the Hob tomorrow.


Sorry I disappeared at 1 - saw a bus come hurtling around the corner and my mind said "bed".

Awwwwww Mike I think I was expecting you to be greek cos of your surname... & was a little shocked that you were not dark haired & olive skinned but ... well how could you possibly be offended or upset with Bagpuss for long??

Another great night. Met a nice bunch of new people & as always ran out of time to talk to everyone.


As for the rugby, I had a conversation with Mike (possibly more than once!) about it & we were thinking CPT. Any other suggestions?

What time does the Rugby kick off? You poor loves with your hangovers, see coming into work has its advantages.


Hey Bagpuss I did a recci on the school & all becomes clear now, HOW close are you??? We will have to "do lunch".


May see some of you later if you are not all still recovering.?


Cheers GG

    • If you want to change a radiator and it is the same size, pretty straight forward.  isolate by turning the two valves, one is straight forward hand twist, the other side you need to take the cap off and get an adjustable spanner and turn till closed.  Both clockwise. Use the same spanner to undo the large nuts that fix the radiator to the pipework, open the bleed valve, get a flatish container to catch the water which is likely to be a grotty black, sheets/plastic underneath to protect floor/floor covering.  Then jiggle off, tipping as quick as you an into your water container. Fingers crossed it will be the same back plate fitting.  If not you will have to take the old one off and fix the new one. Replacement is a reverse, allowing the rad to refill and let the air out. No naked flames involved. If it is a different size I can advise on that too. Lots on line too: https://www.toolstation.com/help-and-advice/how-to-guides/how-to-remove-radiator?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=19747119835&gclid=CjwKCAiAkvDMBhBMEiwAnUA9BR26YwBA6kOfcR4-JVxfJEjWdhRk6j0imCNcsIfu064wHN54-cs10xoCZ4cQAvD_BwE Although this is for a pressurised (combi) system where you need to get it back to pressure.  Pretty simple.  I don't bother with jointing compound.    
    • Fair enough - I'm absolutely wrong on that one. 👍
    • I'm still completely unclear what happened, apart from that a car apparently crashed into a lamp post opposite the Co-op. I presume the one in Lordship Lane, though the OP doesn't say. Was it speeding? Did it swerve to avoid someone who ran into the road? Did something go wrong with its brakes or steering? Did the driver have a medical emergency or fall asleep or got  distracted by something? Was there something slippery on the road surface? Was the driver hurt? Were any passengers hurt? Were any pedestrians or other road users hurt? Were there any witnesses? 
    • confused by the question?
