folks - time to get out and . I didn't trudge around my neighbourhood last night in the bastard rain, delivering leaflets so you could let some Tory arsehole squeak a win.

There is also a real possibility that if the bastards get a proper thumping they'll call a general. So for once, every vote really might count.

I admire your fortitude for posting leaflets. I did it for a bit, but I think the time is better spent working social media TBH.

@BonehouseWasps

Wow. I'm amazed. Thanks for that insight.

I'm quite seriously thinking about standing as an independent in the GE on a proportional representation ticket. No chance of winning in a safe Labour seat, but worth making the point.

I don’t mind the cold - I prefer cold to heat - and torrential rain is bracing.

But this constant, constant drizzle is so irksome. Neither one thing nor the other. As if the weather is stuck hour-glassing between definite states.

Why is it that every new power tool I buy has a different size dust extraction tube?
Even the same brand.
I have several pipe reducer adaptors for my shop vac, but the new sander has a larger pipe that none will fit.
Duct tape to the rescue, I suppose, but it's so annoying.
