Watching Trades on YouTube
Instead of actually getting on and doing some of my own stalled
projects, like insulating the water tank and loft, and denying squirrels their luxurious winter home under our roof, I follow some YouTube channels on folks that are; - Electricians - Woodworkers - Metal workers - Builders - Car Mechanics - Driving Instructors - Computer hardware fanatics Some are experts, some are idiots, some are entertaining whatever. Occasionally the google algorithm finds me another topic, and I'm travelling along another rabbit hole. like er, weird methods of cooking. Such fun ... DIY suggestions anyone? -- Adrian C |

There is a radio Ham in the UK who has got an old crane and uses it to put
his aerials up as well. I guess because its movable and he can bring them down, he never needs planning consent for some of the rather large self built offerings. I also recall seeing weird tree climbing competitions from America, about as interesting as watching paint dry. Brian -- This newsgroup posting comes to you directly from... The Sofa of Brian Gaff...

writes What is the fascination of guns? I never really got that. When it boils down to it, there are few legitimate uses for them. According to the Westerns I watch *an equaliser*. Such that the knowledge, skills and physical size of an opponent are matched. Packing more powder into the cartridge may be related to male performance elsewhe-) -- Tim Lamb |
