Fozzie Posted April 14 Posted April 14 Good morning! My fingers are cut to ribbons. I spent the whole weekend running in pipework under my suspended floor. I got the radiators on the wall yesterday morning, I made final terminations around 9pm. And by 12 midnight, I'd rectified all the leaks, got the floorboards "hatches" secured and the carpet back down. Now to leave it for this Friday when I take the new hatches in the floorboards I've made up and make fine adjustments as I didn't get it exactly straight in some areas. It's not bad, nothing more than a 10 deg angle on it, but I want to at least improve it, and get in additional supports for where I've used the press fit devices. Got some spare 2 x 4, which in combination with joist hangers should make a good solution if mounted on the sub-floor. Really need to make it solid as the mrs wants a wooden floor going in, which isn't the most ideal for lifting up again once it's down. She's very form over function, whereas I'm the reverse 5 Quote
Grumpy Old Git Posted April 15 Posted April 15 Beans, beans, they are good for your heart. The more you eat, the more you fart. The more you fart, the better you feel. So eat baked beans with every meal! 5 Quote
Grumpy Old Git Posted April 17 Posted April 17 When a Polite man says 'do you know how fast you were going' do not say 'I am not sure but I know it was slower than you' That is almost as bad as offering to by a raffle ticket for the polite man's ball! 2 4 Quote

Mississippi Bullfrog Posted April 17 Posted April 17 Today was the day we put our rental house on the market in the hope I can retire next year. Living in tied accommodation is great until you suddenly find yourself homeless. When I started the cost of your average house was £37k. Forty years later it's £300k. Surprisingly my pension lump sum which is designed to cover retirement housing has risen from £37k to £47k. Which leaves us a few pennies short. 5 Quote
