Default Should I buy a lottery ticket?

New workshop update.
6 out of 7 three phase machines have rotated the correct way without any
attempt to maintain polarity on the wiring!
Photos shortly.

Is there anything else I should be doing while my luck is in?:-)

So slightly better than the knob who wired up my brothers garage and left
him with a compressor that sucked and a ramp that tripped the RCD. I ended
up having to sort it out.

Dial a random telephone number and hope that Karen Gillan answers.

It's probably too late now to mention in passing that both Louise Jameson
*and* Katy Manning were on Celebrity Eggheads on BBC2 a couple of weeks
ago ...

Nearly the-)

I have made the astonishing (to me ) discovery that, although the
building has a much greater floor area, the actual wall space: where
machines go, is not much different.

The original dust control gear has adapted surprisingly well with only
one length of 4" flexible duct to obtain. I have ordered an extra blast
gate and some spare hose in an effort to make *clean down* jobs easier
and actually happen.

After finding how long it took for exhaust fumes from the farm loader to
disperse yesterday, I will have to consider positive ventilation. I have
some low speed fans salvaged from a broiler house but it seems a shame
to have to hack through 75mm of insulation to fit them.

Depends on whether you ask her to invite her mother to join you in a
threesome.


I did ask, but she said no.

Sadly when I see Karen Gillan being interviewed she is an empty headed
ninny who giggles like a schoolgirl. Her character Amy Pond is more
interesting but that's because she's speaking words written by someone
cleverer than she is. I've found this a problem with all actresses,
generally they are dimmer than a CFL.

Thanks Steve.

I now have an image of Karen in a schoolgirls uniform.

I'd phone her more often but she took that injunction out against me......
