There was a painter named Michael who was very interested in making a penny where he could, so he often thinned down his paint to make it go a wee bit further. As it happened, he got away with this for some time, but eventually the local church decided to do a big restoration job on the outside of their building. Michael tendered his bid and he got the job because his price was so low. So he set about erecting the scaffolding, setting up the planks, buying the paint, and yes, thinning it down. Well, Michael was up on the scaffolding, painting away, the job nearly completed, when suddenly there was a horrendous clap of thunder, the sky opened, and the rain poured down washing the thinned paint off the church and knocking Michael clear off the scaffold to land on the ground, surrounded by telltale puddles of the thinned and useless paint. Michael was no fool. He knew this was a judgment from the Almighty, so he got down on his knees and cried: "Oh, God, Oh God, forgive me; what should I do?" And from the thunder, a mighty voice spoke, "Repaint! Repaint! And thin no more!" Coat being fetched- Breaking - Yellow Line Monorail - No Service!
- Re-Entry permit for Iraninan tourist
Troll post removed. To answer our OP. I don't think anything has changed; others may be more up to date. Please don't forget that a Re-Entry Permit is only valid until the end of your current permission to stay, it doesn't give any extra time in country.- Not accepting financial gift from family
My parents give myself and my baby-sister a few squid (ok a couple of grand) at birthdays and Christmas. Their idea is to draw down their savings to reduce (slightly) any inheritance tax or $$$ to the government should they end up in a care home. Dad is 92 and mum 88, both still going strong and fully compos-mentis (dad is registered blind but has enough vision to get around). We look at it as early inheritance. I know it's most welcomed by Sis, mine is in my Nationwide savings account for that Rainy Day moment. If I were @RickG16 I'd accept gracefully so there's no hurt feelings and stick it in an investment account of some kind. You may not need it now but who knows what's around the corner.- mounting hardware glass shelves
What are you going to make the shelves from, regular glass isn't suitable. You need toughened/annealed glass and you can't cut it after the heat treatment. There are several suppliers who will make to your drawings unless you can get ready made shelves and design round them.- Re-Entry Permit Warning
At least you're only out for a single re-entry permit, if you'd got a multi you'd definitely be crying in your beer.- Worst Joke Ever 2026

- Looking for electric motor for this
Do let us know how you get on Otherwise, someone will worry you've fried yourself.- Looking for electric motor for this
Wire it like the dotted line after removing the cap. and reverse should be available. I'd test first without removing the cap to ensure you're good like that. So just motor L and N to W and V. Motor should look like this inside, remove the cap and connect U to the aux winding. If it goes the wrong way, swap V & W.- Looking for electric motor for this
Use your existing motor. You don't even need to remove the capacitor if you don't need reverse. EDIT Do check that YOUR manual has this connection.- Looking for electric motor for this
OK, manual here 20190919015909SKU792664.pdf You need a motor that is 220V 3-wire. 3-phase motors that are generally available here are 380V 3-wire unless you can find one that star-connected and can be re-wired for 220V 3-wire.- Looking for electric motor for this
