Pump that can handle boiling water , don't have issues with running dry, can deal with solids and for next to no money, that should not be to hard to find could it

I thought that I had understood your need.
Good luck with finding one!
And in the meantime, watch out for that near boiling water sloshing down your leg. Ouch!

Robert.

Tea urn and an extension cable in the meantime?

Will you please stop coming up with so many good and useful solutions to the problems that the geezers on this site love complaining about?
Only joking!
You are bang on the nose again!
And thinking outside of a different box.
So happy that you are here.

Robert.

Deciding to "Sticky" a few posts today.
Some nuggets of information deserve to be at the top of the pile.

Robert.

Added my chopped Apricots to 5ltrs Teabag Gin tonight.
Happy now scoffin' choc muffins YUMMMMM!!

I totally failed to bottle the latest beer, but the bottles are awaiting me first thing...

Robert.

.. And " first thing " is an hour earlier. It will take me 6 weeks to stop waking 1 hour early. Grrr

I simply forgot about clocks changing, Gob-smacked!
Discovered at 10am, new time, that I was wrong.
Beer had been bottled.
Today seems to have lasted forever.
Have done so much in daylight time.
Flagging now though.
Can I suggest that an extra drinky-poo might help those struggling with clock changing?
I can sometimes loose track of days, an hour seems easy.
I am a reprobate!
Or a Zen master?
Do you control life, or does it control you?

Robert.

Sounds like you have already been on it ED and for some time.

worst time of the year, mornings are brighter so kids wake earlier

And then they're grumpy for the rest of the day!

I got back online tonight after our new, super duper ISP left us in limbo for 36 hours.
Finally caught up with the site I think.

Robert.

Fergot to mention that right about know, our chucks get woken with led lighting at around 4am,a couple of hours before the door automatically opens to allow them to free range for the day.
And I mean free range, they could cluck off to anywhere.
They come back and roost in the hen-house before the door closes, daylight triggered, so we figure that they are cool with it.
We only eat happy eggs.

Robert.

Spooky ... Just rewired my chucks. Made a 12v led light box from a 25l drum and changed the door battery.

We have pullets and some on moult at the mo, so no clucking eggs.

Today i decided to use foreshots to de-grease all the knobs on my cooker, worked a treat they are now sparkling clean and grease free however they also no longer have any markings or numbers on them cos it stripped the them off too - really need to think before i act

Do it by feel Jacs, like a real jedi.
Can you feel the force??

I admit to doing the same with my last cooker, I couldn't believe it!
I got fed up with trying to re-mark with a Sharpie and bought a new cooker.
This one, I use only Cif Kitchen cleaner on.
Which is very good.

This was not a sponsered advertisment. Other kitchen cleaners are available.

Robert.

Faffing about on here when I'm meant to be concentrating on school reports!

#fartooeasilydistracted

Being addicted to a forum dedicated to alcohol does not make you an alcholic.
Now, write that out 100 times, and make a note on the school reports!

Robert.

I don't even have a glass!
Friday...
