Depends what it’s burning .. normally on filtered Kero. Just currently finishing off the last of a few thousand litres of dirty Therma35 we recovered back in 2019.what sort of nozzle does that need?
Let me know if you need any more parts, and I can sort you out. Remember who I work for
.. - Good newsso ... back to Hereford again this morning - 11.30 appointment with Mr Shetty (who was on holiday two weeks ago when I attended for an appointment with him, that no one'd remembered to cancel).
Left at 10.20 thinking / hoping an hour and ten'd be enough for the 16 mile trek - wrong -- got tangled up behind a 300t Liebherr just as we were running into the town
get to the hospital at 11.25 and the parking queue is horrendous, so baled out and left Pam to park the car, while I headed for 'the Oxford Suite' to take a seat -
in the wrong place -
didn't tell me I had to go through there and wander down several corridors to find 'suite 6', when I booked in.
Pulled me new Nokia out of me pocket to call Pam and tell her where she could find me -
punched up contacts and it says " No contacts found " WTF??
bloody thing had deleted 970 contacts -
fortunately her number was in the log from a couple of days ago -
'cos I have no idea what it is -
rely on the phone for all my numbers
I am well p*ssed off as I'd left me other Nokia WITH all me numbers still in it - in the car ...
been carrying two phones for weeks, since the 630 refused to talk to the network.
anyway ... Mr Shetty was lovely ... went through all the various Q.s I had for him, re. life with/without a gall bladder, how it'd affect (or not) my Gaucher's (he had to google that one), told me bloods were all fine, liver and renal functions perfect, etc., etc, I was otherwise very fit and healthy and not really a candidate for gall stones/gall bladder problems.
" so, have you made a decision about having it removed ? "
" Several, all varying on who I've had conversations with that day and their answers to my Q.s "
" and "
" grateful though I am, for all the input and care I've had here, I feel fine.
I recovered very quickly from July's bout of pancreatitis, as I seem to do, each time I get it and have no symptoms that concern me currently,
so I have decided to keep my gall bladder, for now at least, as even without it I still have a 50/50 chance of suffering pancreatitis again
and having it removed has its own possible series of issues . "
" that's fine and I fully understand your reasoning.
Call my PA on Monday and ask her to make an appointment, to see me in 6 months and we'll monitor how you progress, going forward -
you can change your mind at any time -
just call my PA and ask to see me ..
obviously if you have another episode of pancreatitis, come straight to A&E. "
What a brilliant bloke he was --
was expecting an argument about keeping it and him justifying how removal would be my best decision, but nope, he could see exactly where I was coming from, that I am in pretty fair shape and otherwise 'fit as a flea' !
head down - carry on ..
if I do end up on a ward again, I may well think differently, but I am gonna have to be pretty bloody rough to do so
I know I have issues (of all sorts) and behave accordingly
Got back home and tried to reload my contacts - twice - NADA !!
Sent the sellers a detailed message about the issues and left them an ansafone message to follow it up - only had it less than 3 weeks - not a happy bunny - new, unused handset - want it replaced PDQ.
gonna be carrying two for a while longer BTLs

Me too - can vouch for dodgy capacitors on the 'new' Grants. On my 2019 VortexBlue the capacitor started to leak after only 2 years and was swapped out under warranty. We keep it shut down over the summer and use the Solar PV to heat the hot water.
bargain !!

pushing a grands-worth of tooling for the Ajax, maybe more - fella had very little idea what it was - end of clearing out a deceased relative's garage/workshop - had to clean a few rust spots off, but as it's all hardened tooling, it cleans up real nice

it's likely to cost me a lot more for inserts for the fly cutter heads - but !!
Ditto down here in Devon. Not sure if it’s portentous of anything . Lots of oak trees maybe
