Might be a bit obvious (sorry if so) but have you checked the - blimey, I don't know what it's called - on the RHS you have the turny-wheel thing - the inside of that moves separately and stops the needle moving (for when you're filling bobbins).

Bingo! Trousers now sewn, thank you kindly!

 

[Hill Wimp]

Oh, flipping heck!

I used to have horses in my younger years, i only ever had one gelding ( castrated male) apart from the fact mares are far more intelligent i just couldn't stand doing a particular and regular part of his grooming shall we say.

 

[Hill Wimp]

Ha ha - that's my fledgling plan for a career in bull milking cancelled then!

speak to @Mattonsea he may take you on, you never know.

Does that mean you don't wash your pots an d pans after you cook as well?
that reminds me, I read once they ultra pasturize milk there so you don't have to refrigerate it.... is that true?

We have normal pasteurised milk, known as fresh milk, which needs to be kept in the fridge. We also have Ultra Heat Treated milk, known as UHT or long life milk, which can be stored in a cupboard until it's opened but then should be stored in the fridge. The advantage is that until opened the UHT stuff has a much longer shelf life. I use it because I can keep several cartons in the cupboard and not risk running out.

And a quid is just another word for a pound in money, like a buck is a dollar.

We've been painting again, room doors and cupboard doors this time plus trips out to wickes and B&Q (big DIY stores)

 

[Hill Wimp]

Um... except when you say pound you mean money. (Speaking of which, what is a quid?)

I thought you guys did kilometers and centimeters and all that

No thats mainland Europe, we are an island , part of Europe,

Over to you then. How that didn't put me off men for life i don't know. As a 14yr old i was quite impressionable you know.

 

[Arch]

Which reminds me. I'm vaguely remembering a scene in a sitcom or film where a couple or two friends are painting a room and one playfully dots the other's nose with paint and it escalates until one rolls a roller down the other's face. I keep thinking it's The Good Life, but might be getting it confused with that scene in the fancy hotel restaurant where they smear food on each other....

It's not an issue until men get old and then you just hire a nurse
