So my wildflower patch is just 99% poppy, but not the worst thing

I've already asked. They sold out of Ultegra and said Shimano have discontinued mechanical groupsets and so wont be getting any more in stock. I havnt been keeping up to date with bike news but that seems insane to me.

Im buying through cycle to work so it makes more sense to buy the full bike.

I'm tempted by the Strael now as I actually compared the 51r to my caad10 and the measurements arent that far off.

Reach is 1-1.5cm more which can be sorted with stem.

The seatutube is 51 C-T whereas my caad10 is 50.5 C-T. Seatube/ amount of seatpost showing mostly being just an aesthetic issue..

Only issue is Ultegra no longer exists as an option which would have been perfect :( Now its either more £££ for a heavier electronic Ultegra or more ££ for also heavier electronic 105.

Decisions..

Ooof, squeeky bum time

Are these for thru axles? Don’t think so but checking.. Cheers

Yeah I didn't know if they would just about survive on till next year or if they'd all fail. I haven't got space for them anyway.

not sure how they'll arrive and if you can plant them up for next year but for anyone that wants a serious amount of asparagus at their allotment, 50 crowns for £25:

nato strap?

best way to get rid of bamboo without chemicals is to let it shoot up, then just as its about to start creating leaves cut it back and repeat until it runs out of energy and dies. Might take a couple years.

castle itself is more tasteful than the interior. A decent amount of craftsmanship shown..

But when you remove the old floor the rest of the room will be lower than the bit you concreted.. unless you plan on just flooring ontop of if all

£250 plus the £100 the council want for a skip permit if putting it on the road..

I think I paid Mr Bezos about £25 and it's perfectly functional, I don't have any issues launching pizza.

I wonder if i'd been slightly better off with a non-perforated one but I certainly wouldn't bother replacing it now.

Yeah - its not ideal. I initially took it all apart as the washing machine was filling the sink. Turns out someone tipped the contents of the toaster down the sink causing a block in the section before the trap and the washer emptied quicker than it could drain.

I guess thats why previous fitter had that weird elbow with overflow connected to it as they had used up the sink overflow point for the washer.

Couldn't find anything so just replaced the whole lot. Was tricky due to the waste pipe exiting the wall quite high up, couldn't fit a p trap with a connection for washing machine for example as it was too tall so had to swap it out.

Not sure the washing machine should drain where it does but its where it was before. If anyone has any suggestions..

At least everything slopes now

What are these two parts called? Can’t find anywhere. Connectors are knackered so would rather replace.

The right one has directional flow
The left is a 90 degree connection with an outlet connection as well

ah, maybe there is another one out there that I looked at, definitely saw a picture of an asgard shed with some sort of clip on guttering, will try and dig it out.

edit (hall's clip guttering): https://www.asgardsss.co.uk/blog/post/in-a-tiny-gardens-allotment-storage?fbclid=IwAR3N3eZZusnzMQWYVfMK2luaoR9NhzB6hUeeiyA9wPaU6JiJASugJ7OkMzU

wether it would work on the 3-bike shed Im unsure..

Just after a second opinion ;

Adding another layer of insulation to my loft. As a result it will sit on top of all the wiring in the loft.

Had an electrician round to sort some other bits and asked if I needed to put the wiring on top of the insulation rather than under and he said it was fine under and the cables are rated to not over heat under insulation (mainly lighting wires plus 1 wire for electric shower). Sound about right?

Putting the wiring over the top of new insulation isnt an option without re-wiring everything in loft.

I looked into it when I got my shed but decided it wasn't worth the cost/ amount of water collected, given it was one of their smaller sheds. https://www.freeflush.co.uk/products/halls-clip-on-shed-guttering-kit

Everything else in the garden is slow to get going this year but I already have figs..

the pelagos looks so good, definitely on the want list

lovely frame glws!

They do grow super quick.

Rhododendron coming out, still my favourite part of the garden.

guessing you're not in London as last Sunday was a beaut.
