My wife watched Sooty on the TV as a child in the 60’s. She loved it so much that her Mum made her a Sooty puppet. She still has it today. A pity it’s black and white.

I’m right handed. The thought of painting anti clockwise makes my head hurt!

Maybe the previous owner was a car radio fitter, and he got a set of keys with each radio?

That’s a good idea. An irony thread!

EV’s are fantastic if you can charge at home, off peak even better and you never travel more than its range before returning home to recharge. Not so fantastic if you’re renting one and plan a longer journey and will need to rely on the public charging network. Even more daunting as well if...

Their roofs must be in a terrible state!

We’ve got three clocks that are quarter hour chimers. Now that is a PITA moving the hand on and letting it chime each quarter! Mustn’t complain though ;)

I am thinking of spaying the doors of my kitchen. I've done a bit of airbrushing in my time and am assuning that the general basic principles apply. I will check more information though. However, at this point it will be a one off job and may not necessitate buying any kit but rather hire it...

I put this to my wife. Apparently, you’re mistaken.

I had thought about that and did wonder whether it would work on MDF.

That's the stuff!! I knew that there is a runny glue that I used to use on my modelling years ago. I've been Google'ing epoxy resin with no success. Yep, cyanoacrylate, that's the one!! Many thanks.
