You're very kind.

That'll be the 21 degree difference in melting temperature, then!

Roofs are good. Stopping air leaks is the cheapest.
The simple facts with insulation are knowing where the problems are and insulating/draughtproofing carefully - only the homeowner can do that.
Every contractor is paid by the hour and isn't paying any part of the subsequent energy bills.

I've been there, for one year.
More external insulation.
I'm stripping off my old siding and adding 2" of foam under the new shortly.

Examiners had (probably still do have) a quota. Your mate probably took his test at the end of the month. By chance, my mother took her 6th driving test immediately after my sister #1 took her first test, and with the same examiner. My mum informed him that they had the same instructor, that he had ...

...and the Lamb lies down on Broadway...
It will all go quiet until Israel has taken delivery of the latest batch of promised US goodies.

I believe the Orkneys and Shetlands didn't have roundabouts in the test because there weren't any. Ricardian can perhaps advise.

How's filming 'Fury 2' going?
'Well, Brad wasn't available, we have to go woke so it stars a black woman and a ginger trans...and the budget's pretty low'

Bring back the Cold War!
When being a deeply insensitive, devious b@stard could get you a job as an RAF fighter pilot, whereas now the only options are Albanian gang enforcer or, if also completely shameless, a politician.

Ukraine isn't going to be punching holes in any Russian line. They tried that last year with much more ammo. And exactly how are they going to move into Crimea, and sustain that assault? The Ukrainians do have to hit Russia where they haven't so far. I still think that means the Kerch Bridge, and th...

Gold vs 10YR US Bond Rate (inverted) Screenshot from 2024-04-21 11-49-55.png Normally, when Bond interest rates rise, Gold drops in value, and v.v. So, the inverted Bond rate tracks the Gold price. Note that the current divergence is much less than during the Great Financial Crisis The divergence eq...

Gin clear, almost calm wind, and warming up nicely. Just as well as I have a huge amount to do this year. This week's job include building the second floor of my barn, digging my veggie patches, building 3 raised beds, and prepping for re-insulating and re-siding most of the outside of the house. In...

xi can't really lose from the Ukraine war.
If Russia wins, he goes south.
If Russia loses, he goes north.
But Russia will lose.
Which is preferable for China, as they will get Siberia's mineral wealth, especially the oil.

Since the beginning of human tribes, the point of occupying land is to get some benefit out of it. That isn't happening for Russia, and is why putin has already lost. Flattening a town to occupy it brings nothing but rebuilding costs. They can't farm it because the land's mined, and the drainage is ...

Sevastopol harbour - Looks like the Russians successfully intercepted a Ukrainian anti-ship missile by firing a ship at it =)) or "The attack was repelled. A fire was started by falling debris" as they currently prefer to express it. https://mstdn.social/@noelreports/112308328633536617 https://mstdn...

I have lived in Bath twice, Llondel, so you have my understanding and sympathy!

My driving instructor informed me that my examiner was well disposed towards service personnel, and I would be bound to pass if I could find some way of dropping the hint. The first question I was asked was "On approaching the vehicle, what is the first thing you check for?" My immediate and instinc...

My first four wheeler 16042244208_d98d200352-3316848245.jpg I was not the only one on the squadron without a driving licence. Because some bean counter had removed the requirement for Officers to know how to drive (to save the expense of training them), we all had to be provided with a driver when w...

It is just the moment for that. Next week is Passover Week, and the Senate does not normally sit (Hey, you could take all next week off, Probes ;))) ). However...... Senate Majority Leader has just announced the Senate will sit on Tue 23 April and vote on the Ukraine Bill. A Reminder that Monday is ...
