Thar goes some sheet material as they sail by, upwards and onwards through the air and into the trees over yonder... Mmmm... Is that why I'm staying hunkered down, snug and dry inside?...

Anyhow I'll enjoy this coffee break as I wait for my 1st lot of 12L of water to boil on the old 3 ring burner. At least my ensuite will get warmed up now. ;-) Cheers. ID: 2117469 ·

[edit] Time for a cool down and coffee break now that the heat is off. Cheers. ID: 2117475 ·

An electromechanical valve that gets sluggish and 'sticky' when cold, but is perfectly fine when not so cold?... Try catching that one out?! There are two custom made washers at work that have that problem. The valve is on a air switch. Cold weather and it gets cranky and won’t open. The fix is a 5/8 inch box end wrench. ID: 2117481 ·
