    I know someone that was on DIY SOS. They were given a list of stuff that they had to have "lying around" that could be used in the do-up. The actual work they did had to be undone and redone within a week.


    was that the MSE diy sos team effort? Someone in another thread Davesnave and I frequent regularly was involved in that one.

    PN, may I invite some greenfingered peeps elsewhere, please? I want to put some photos up for advice and don't want to put those pics on MSE.

    Hmmm.....we haven't heard from her for a while. Last thing she was going into her garden again, doing gardening stuff, getting excited about it, and then....nothing!

    I will do a bit of ferreting around.....;)

    Good I was wondering that as I typed. Maybe she's enjoyed it so much she hasn't been in. :) I miss her. I wonder how her cat is.

    The other place isn't working for me tonight. It says its site owner has exceeded their bandwidth. I don't understand that. It seems to imply that the other place must have been heaving with traffic, but I don't think it can ahve been unless it's been being spammed to death.

    PS Anyone know how wageslave is? I miss her.
    Do you know anyone who's bereaved? Point them to https://www.AtaLoss.org which does for bereavement support what MSE does for financial services, providing links to support organisations relevant to the circumstances of the loss & the local area. (Link permitted by forum team)
    Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
    Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.     :)

    I just tried too. Got same message.
    Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

    Yes.
