Hi - are those bags the same as the "red tops" I was looking at? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Red-Top-86757-Fly-Trap/dp/B06Y34JR84/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1539613213&sr=8-3&keywords=red+top+fly+trap Others, similar, listed on Amazon.

Anyone been thinking about pm (especially gold) miners as take over targets? Been discussed in the specialist media on and off for a while now. Point being made the majors can only grow by acquisition. Another factor in addition to them being leveraged to the physical PMs? Maybe the GDX chart shows a bit of front running? Good time to start identifying targets?

Went to the garage Sunday and thought I'd check me tyres. WTF £1 for 5 mins! I remember 20p. I had a Tesco compressor in the back - probably £10-£15 to buy. Paid for itself in spades! Hopefully same with me new Aldi (but quality OEM) wacker plate!

I'm going to try "red top fly traps" from amazon. Good reviews.

Crash sensor went just before mot so warning light would be a fail. A reset pointless as would come back straight away. Needed a top range reader to id which sensor or just replace each in turn. Sourced a new ome sensor via ebay from germany. Massive range of quoted prices. A few must dos to fix to avoid setting airbag off and alls well. VW polo warning light was always coming on due to known emissions sensor issue. In that case a reset would have worked long enough to pass mot as emissions fine. VWs too pretty pretty with electrics and sensors for me to buy again.

Major problem here. Talking hundreds or more. We live surrounded by fields where they hatch from in a sudden change to warmer weather and seek warmth on exterior house walls or inside. Have the interior roof down atm but sealed with temp plastic sheet. Still found ways in. And the noise. Raided them but big mess. Can't see how we can have an attic filling up with them and dying so either we will net the roof interior (from Ebay) or have a cathedral ceiling. Probably the latter. Or nuke the land around us as nuking house no good as just kills the ones temporarily moving in. Believe they do not lay eggs or hatch inside the house. Deffo the worst this year for the last 5 or so. Get about 4 to 5 swarms a year. A short sharp annoyance and then over.

I did not read this thread properly and would have passed by had I. I have no problem with the ad other than I thought it naff, no more.

Yep, visiting so saw live tv with ads, especially this one. Now in the past surely you would expect to cover your mate's back from p*ss through to whatever and would do the same in this case. But do you want to be in an army with infantile ads like that? Nah, even if you knew there was the reality check of those training staff waiting for them in boot camp. Is this just more of that useless crapita stuff? They have no idea how the squaddy thinks. I doubt you give a flying one when things kick off and your life depends on your mate next to you. And I bet that trust is built the hard sweaty way when such nonsense goes out the window long before. Unless maybe if you're in the shiny boot brigade. If you're fazed joining up by thoughts your religion maybe ain't right then it ain't for you. You either want it and you'll fight for it or not. Surely you would want your mates to be fighters. By contrast, that Royal Marine ad was the dogs bullocks and the way to go. Could you see them wearing religious name badges? They're a team and a million miles beyond that. This is why the military happily ditched national service and can be the best leveller around. BTW, go ad free, save time, and ditch the tv licence!

Sometimes I almost cry as I rip out building stuff and have to replace it with today's rubbish. Oh, including my relatively poor skill level! Never managed to have a long term relationship with a footpump, ever. Maybe just a bad idea like a square wheel. Yup, compressor.

Oh I do wish there was a turbo upvote button. Or I could give you my full allowance. Priceless. Mark Steele on the News Quiz better get a pair of L plates!

Ha, just went to check on Duckduckgo and their second search suggestion was "Just eat real food"!

I excitedly shouted out the idea to my bro in a cafe in Muswell Hill many years ago. Never did but another customer must have! Oh well, easy come. Not sure they're the same as those others but having something tepid from a bag off the sweaty back of a cyclist or whatever would be a new low for me. Yup, believe it's PE all the way.

You're so right. Lesson learnt!
