  1. When we worked in Hong Kong our local pub (The Kangaroo in Tsim Sha Tsui, sadly long gone) had "pints" of two sizes. There were the "pints" for the local brews which were 500ml and the glasses (mug style) supplied to be used for the imported British ales which were a "proper" pint of 568ml. <edited coz of picky people> Ordering the local ale in a British glass "because we liked the handle" worked for about 3 months before the manager realised, we were getting rather more beer for the same $$$
  2. Indeed, it's a tad warm. We are swallowing 27kWh from the storage overnight, total daily usage about 50kWh of which about 1kWh is from PEA
  3. Spider? I got something very similar a year or two back, never found out what did it but my leg didn't fall off.
  4. Do let us know how you get on, reports on other forums are generally positive for Shenzen Luyuan Tech. Co. Ltd. https://szluyuan.en.alibaba.com/index.html
  5. No need to start multiple threads, your appeal has been noted by forum Admin. Does your friend actually need O-neg or will his own blood-group suffice (we need to know what it is). I'm a boring O+ so cannot help

  7. Our local star is certainly pretty active these days, just how much this is affecting us I'm not sure but I'm getting 2 or 3 of these notifications every day: -
  8. Name the UK children's TV show. Bonus points for naming the presenters.
  9. More educational video ...
  10. That would be Marmite Vegemite.
  11. An important educational video ...
  12. I know the polycarbonate isn't fire-resistant. But it was in the shed, I can lift it, and it keeps the cat/chickens out (yes, I removed the eggs from behind the smaller packs).
  13. Check you are actually using the correct capacitor; the value is usually on the pump rating plate. I wouldn't go more than 15% either way on value. If the pump is in the open, give it some shade, these things really don't like the heat. Generally, with capacitors you do tend to get what you pay for, so more expensive units may be longer-lived than the el-cheapo no-name units.
  14. Why let the truth get in the way of a "good" joke. Besides, that article is about Salzburg airport not Vienna...
