It was just a joke. Same as it is when I say you're a sicko.
I genuinely had no idea that you were taking me seriously. In fact I very much doubt anyone else thought that you weren't laughing along.
However, we all know now mate.
I would apologise but I'm not entirely convinced that you aren't winding me up? 🤔

One of the witnesses refer to 'a black man in black clothing' who stabbed the two youngsters to death and then calmly walked off up the street.

I hope you are just playing along @Don the Don and not seriously upset about your good character being assassinated. Personally I am proud to be 'nuts' and a 'sick bastard' myself, it's a badge of honour, an award for services no less not character assassination and your contributions are much valued here old chap.

The real, sicko, nutty, perverted me is back, no apologies needed Jez, I was In a foul mood all week, The NHS we're being twats concerning my wifes mobility and her need for a minor surgical op [done at the surgery] basicaly I was told I was not entitled to any allowance for support I have been paying for everything, she is in extreme pain and the minor op they don know if and when they can fit her in, anyway her Nurse came this week for her monthly injection not seen this one before and being in a foul mood I let rip with the usual things like I may as well paint my face black or wear comedy tit's to try and get things moving "but" the last laugh was on me, the nurse started laughing at my comments and said "I know you" I am ex RAF too, and we had half an hour banter ending with her saying leave it to me I will have a word, low and behold I don't know what she said but the phone this afternoon has not stopped ringing The NHS have decided to come and fit easy access equipment for her and she will be entitled to a walk in shower [saves me buying one] and oh I AM entitled to high rate assistance allowance backdated to my original application of February and guess what the surgery have just phoned they will do the op on the 26th of this month, "well fuck me" I don't know what was said but I owe that girl a hug and a drink, she sent an e-mail to say things have been put in place, it sure is true it's not what you know it's who you know.

so gents sorry for the tantrum and the prima donna interlude but I am back to Normal whatever my normal is filth and degradation to commense

Glad to hear that you are still here and that you managed to get things moving for the missus. The system is seriously broken and it seems that it takes finding someone on the inside who is capable of pulling strings to get anywhere. It sometimes helps if you go on a rant and seem a bit 'unhinged' too as they get the idea that, if they don't sit up and take notice, you might just go on the rampage and then they will find people looking closely at those whose lack of attention to their job pushed you over the edge.

Took Mrs BS for a week away from the dickhead neighbours. Was going nicely ..

My pish now boileth....the van has a water heater that would cost about £600 to replace, and there is a stoopid plastic fitting the hot water hose hooks up to, which just decided to snap. £3.50 for that friggin fitting...I have to remove the entire unit from the van, and try and get the remains of this plastic bastard out of the alloy casting it screws into. So back home cos I've had to drain the entire water system down, and remove the seat box just to get at it.

Just hoping I don't lose it with it .....

Good luck mate.
I've just purchased one of these to adapt/enhance another item.
They do various sizes of pipe & fittings. Could you use it to make the entire pipework polyurethane rather than a plastic fitting into an alloy casting?..

That's the 6mm OD x 4mm ID set. But they offer a 8mm OD set for only approx £3 more. And coloured pipe is also available.

Ah the joys of snapped off plastic hose unions. Such a thing happened with the fuel hoses on my Daytona tank. Had to resort to heat and that was a nervous time using a heat gun on the fuel pump plate.

I heated up a large screwdriver with a blowlamp. Poked it into the snapped plastic fastening on the bottom of the tank. It melted the fastener into the shape of the screwdriver. I allowed it to cool/set hard again then simply unscrewed it.

Apparently I should have emptied the fuel tank first. According to a mate with no sense of adventure 😉

Got the bastard out..... Then read the fitting instructions. "Do not remove the hot water outlet.....". Not like I had a fuckin choice is it?PXL_20230615_113146506_copy_450x600.jpg

Remains of the threads.....lots of patience with a 1mm drill and a Dremel.

Awaiting new parts. It actually reached 4O° in the van today, but glad to say I started early before it got that hot.

@DD67 I like the look of those fittings. I reckon a brass plumbing fitting would fit, probably a 15mm one. Trouble is it's 10mm in the centre, that pipe in the middle is supposed to allow for airspace for expansion, so getting the right fitting could be fun. I have a pair of replacement fittings on the way, idea being if I had a spare, I won't need it .

Jeez. You have a campervan you have to be electrician, plumber, gas fitter, and mechanic! And a fucking contortionist to boot.

Heater rebuilt with new parts, reinstalled, and tested. Works ...that's a plus! Getting the fitting over the copper pipe was fun though....bloody stupid design. So tigh into the tank, so had to pull it out and hold it with pliers to cram the fitting on it. Plenty of PTFE on the threads....

I'm putting in for my contortionist qualification now.

Next you'll be sitting your gynaecologist exams.
I understand that module one consists of wallpapering your hallway from outside, via the letterbox 😉
