    Deadheading

    Deadheading a Buddleia might promote a second bloom. Being very hardy and resilient, they generally thrive on being pruned back hard in Spring. Lots of advice on the net...
  5. Great field, I'll be backing So You Think...
  6. Suarez's reaction didn't help...Mr Atkinson has got previous when it comes to poor decisions and general inconsistency.
  7. That explains his recent visit to the Clap Clinic...

  10. Scholesy has spoken more to the media since he retired than his whole playing career...at this rate he'll be on Strictly next year. Stop Press: Bitters turn down Hammer's loan bid for 'who's that bastard Argentinian?'
  11. I see from your previous posts that you run a company. It is against the forum rules to advertise your company in multiple posts...could this explain their disappearence? Edited to say...The Mods beat me to it

At first I thought all the locals were mad wearing a t-shirt under their shirt in such high temps. But after a few weeks of dripping wet sweaty shirts I tried it and it worked. Why don't you buy some clothes at your destination, and just take a few lightweight basics to see you through the first few days? What's good enough for the locals will be good enough for you.
  19. computedshorty said... This is still done Shorty, not just for filling holes but also the gaps between the boards to cut down on draughts. However, with modern central heating they tend to move and crack, with pieces falling out. A piece of jute string placed in the gap before filling can help to stop this happening.
  20. Put a rat down the manhole and wait for the screams...
  21. Why don't you post a link to where we can see your flat online, and then put your tinhat on... :)
  22. Traditional floorboards are fitted with 'brad' nails... http://www.bricksandbrass.co.uk/images/diy/floornails.jpg They are meant to be seen, finishing flush with the top surface of the floorboard. When people lift up carpets to expose their existing floorboards, they are usually not that visible, having blended in with the floorboards over time. It's only when people sand up and varnish their existing boards that they become more visible. However in your case of using reclaimed boards, it sounds like your builder is using nails that look far too new and shiny, rather than sourcing some that would've blended in better. One solution is to 'punch' the nail heads so they sit a few mm below the surface of the board. If they still stand out visually, the gap can be filled with a matching wood filler to hide the nail head completely. I hope you are taking notes reren ;-)
  23. ...and get some professional input before advising on ''knocking down walls'' My advice to you would be to carry some imdemnity insurance...just in case ;-)
  24. Please let this be true... From the Mirror...Tributes paid to former commentator David Francey after his death aged 87 included an anecdote in which the Radio Scotland football host asked an off-air colleague to the name of a Romanian player and then announced: ?On the ball is the big blond striker, Fuktifano.?
  25. Onefifty realised she'd taken reren's ''keep it open plan and minimal'' makeover advice too far... http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/pictures/2008/02/22/playmobil2.article.jpg
