Cutting leather?

They provided me with a referral code for new customers, they said to share it with friends and neighbours. Both parties can get a monetary incentive if the code is used on sign up.
YouFibre | Ultra-Fast Full Fibre Broadband https://share.google/U8xFwstGPjj7EJkzx
and the referral code is

The Youfibre engineers are here, their first task is to run the fibre from the pole to my house. The A56 in-between has made that job a bit more difficult for them. 45 minutes later, they made use of the pelican crossing to get the cable across the road :biggrin2: a good bit of problem solving there...

Kev, I've just had a peep at YouFibre's Trustpilot reviews and there seems to be a lot of poor reviews at the moment even though they get a headline 4.6 stars. Trustpilot I had a read of the reviews before committing, there will always be some unsatisfied people, and even some malicious people, who...

Pollen count is high today in the north west. It's trees at the moment, birch is high and ash is moderate.

They are getting plenty of use, certainly making things a lot easier for me.

I don't think Spamedica want me to forget my pre op appointment on Thursday, I've had an email and text message every day since Friday.

I have Youfibre coming tomorrow to replace my broadband with full fibre to the premise. I had an email, from TalkTalk, a couple of weeks ago advising of a 10% price increase which would put the monthly payment at £33 for 60mbps fibre to the cabinet and just incoming calls to the landline. A bit of a...

It's been a couple of days doing a job in my own house. It was decided, a few weeks ago, that the bathroom wasn't warm enough with just the towel 'ladder' radiator. At the time Screwfix had an offer on radiators, complete with a TRV and lockshield valves so I bought a couple. One for the bathroom an...

Be good to let it dry out a bit, be careful not to catch it on anything (voice of experience here).

You made a proper job of that...

Outside the Co-op?

Looks like a (piped TV, (cable TV) switch. Usually installed on the window casement. Some had BBC radio channels as well. Ours at home when I was lad had BBC 1 and ITV TV, Home Service (R4) Third Programme (R3) and the Light Programme (R2). The system pre dates the advent of BBC2 and Radio 1. Some ...

And a supplemental.... would such activity pose any risk or expense for you? It depends what they're doing. If it's something illegal it could be traced back to your router as the source. There is the chance someone could have got hold of your WiFi password but, unless you gave it to someone, the c...

I have a question..... Suppose someone was accessing the web from a car parked outside your back gate..... Is there any way you could tell? And a supplemental.... would such activity pose any risk or expense for you? You can log onto your router from a browser, usually 192.268.0.1 and check what is...

Did another today which also went down well with my mother. I've had them both printed and framed and they're on their way to Kent. This is the image I cropped them from FB_IMG_1775843528874.jpg and the second AI manipulated result Messenger_creation_D7C14224-F938-4B56-B93D-2F6A56DA38AA.jpeg I prefe...

There seems to be a trend of putting funny captions on classic pictures, this one made me smile.
