  1. Good morning, or is it Good Night? Atleast I finished on time even if it he mid shift break happened after midnight…

  3. I did that once, I never found it named bike to. Just reused a bolt from an old battery Good on you for tracking it down.
  4. Good Morning all... Not posted at this time for a whilst. Odd evening not actually flat out at work, not only have I actually had a break but near the middle of the shift. Probably broken it now, and will have massive overrun.
  5. Suggestion phone in or use NHS app, or even drop in note, give vague symptoms (don’t mention chest pain or short of breath or then you should be calling 999) do not request to speak or see Dr. The gate keepers (receptionists) are experts at deflecting this. Symptoms they have to pass info the to Dr, it’s the Chinese in the armour they don’t like you knowing. Accept it will all start with a phone call from Dr, they are amazing and can diagnose everything without actually seeing patients sounds like 3 week history of pain, blood, or whatever symptoms not improving or worsening. Unable to do whatever. need advice. something like that might wake dr up
  6. We all know of the various driving styles compared to vehicle Audi,BMW Chelsea tractors, white van man etc, etc… A new one for you Volkswagen T5 drivers. Driven of a week day by aggressive mums and dads doing there school runs, commuting, shopping, Pilates or silks class. Of a weekend they are out loaded with sups, canoes, peddle bikes driven at annoyingly slow speed to beauty spots, campsites or the holly grail to go “wild camping” (translate to a coastal car park, farmers field or lay-by). Their custom lowered suspension, wide alloys rims, low profile tyres, spoilers and extra large graphics, VW, mountains, surf or similar inspiring scene making them even more ideal for this task. Drivers and occupants, wear Dry Robes often miles from the nearest water or rain frequently at the service station in the midlands. Even better these guys and girls are like swarms of midges irritating as hell congregating together, making any scenic area a little less pleasant. I am sure the bumper stickers (“If I was meant to go fast I wouldn’t be shaped like a brick”) seen at weekends are peeled off on a Sunday night for racing stripes for the race on a school run Monday morning.

    Battery Charger

    Thanks for all the advice, I will be back to this but at the moment I have borrowed one from boat. It's not going to be used for the winter and life here is changing somewhat.
  8. Keep up the good work, that means I have been involved for more than half its existence. Without you lot I doubt I would probably of not got passed my CBT. To being a member with the ability to give an occasional bit of advice.
  9. I hate paying for parking car or bike, generally if I have to pay to park I will not stop unless it’s a necessary. Then I also not a fan of shopping and I will not pay for parking to drink coffee. The local council offices get quite upset when I refer to my annual car parking pass payment as parking tax. One of the benefits of biking is free parking. If they offered extras well sign posted, under cover, security / protection then yes, I would consider a sensible charge. However bike parking rules change from one place to another. Locally you can pay one for one bike in a bay and fit all the bikes you can fit into a bay with one council. Next council along you pay per bike, regardless and the warden and people don’t like it when you each take a bay There is little clue as to what the rules are and where bike parking is if going somewhere new. Just like with bikes in bus lanes, it’s a mess.
  10. Just saying: [email protected] Quote: Ticket #29719042 If a few people with actual experience jump on it...
  11. Just a suggestion for those who can back up there experiences. A short email to trustpilot might not go amiss. Particularly if you mention part off reason for using said company was trust pilot reviews. It seems they are sensitive about fake reviews etc.
  12. And that’s where modern review sites come into play…

    Battery Charger

    Looking for a battery charger. One that can charge EVERYTHING 12v. From my bike, car to 110amp leisure batteries. With ability to deal with lead acid, AGM and ideally lithium. Not something I use very often. My last one went pop it couldn't do lithium but could do the others, there is no urgent need for lithium at the moment however it is becoming more standard. As always cost is a factor. Any recommendations?
  14. Merry Christmas
  15. Good Morning and Happy Christmas
  16. Will it's Christmas day for me and daughter. Walk down high street for coffee then the local pub for lunch. "Oh good choice I can drink in that one" says my 17yo daughter. My eye brow raises "so I am told" she quickly adds.
  17. They're is allot of changes going on at the moment, both at work and home. Same job elsewhere is preferred. If not big gamble elsewhere and totally different job All this change is for the best I am hoping...
  18. I am not certain quite where to post this…. Here NOTD or YWJ So personal life changing, I realised I had Christmas Day of work and will be alone. I offered to swap shifts with some one for Christmas Day to allow me to go away for New Year. I had also offered to take the shifts of as annual leave (29th & 30th). I have emailed my work twice over this, and spoken to them on the phone to be told “there was hope”. I have awaited response, tonight checking my emails they had not responded directly. However they had asked me to change one of the shifts I had requested off. I messaged the person that i had discussed shift swap with, they have been granted annual leave for Christmas Day and Boxing Day. My employers have failed to notify me. Sadly my response cannot include the adjectives I would like to use - they have a dignity at work policy. That has been quoted against me previously following similar incident (refusing me a day of for internal interview) for suggesting that our scheduling where not fit for purpose.
  19. Good morning all..
  20. Not really helpful but: https://www.sunshinesolar.co.uk/Item/TRIRON3210N? I have solar set up on the boat, it started with cheap solar controller. It did the job. However I upgraded to Victron Smart controller and have not looked back. https://www.amazon.co.uk/MPPT-controller-Victron-Energy-75/dp/B075NTT8GH/ref=pd_aw_subss_hxwSS2_sspa_mw_detail_m_sccl_2/262-3055827-1971245? It has Bluetooth and an app, I can monitor loads control voltages it cuts out at see how battery voltage is standing up etc. You can set your charging voltages, for me in winter it's set for max battery life. When using boat for holiday it set to keep everything running. However I am not certain if that model will cover your set up. Your unit does have a Bluetooth dongle available but what functionality it gives you I don't know. If you can find the manual and connect the load in to load it output (as @Bender commented earlier connection with light bulb on MPPT). You can probably set cut out voltage etc. Another simple addition might just be a voltage meter fixed to batteries. That way you can monitor the voltage. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/356044707704? You can get without USB but they are same price.
