Settling down for the night, been a busy day ripping my central heating system apart to find a blockage. Blockage found and flushed out and prepped ready to be soldered back together tomorrow.

The dreaded microbore.... easy to install, apparently,  but even more easy to clog up...!

It's a proper pain in the ass mate, especially if the manifolds are installed under an internal wall, that's why I had to totally chop both legs out. I then had to cut as close to the manifold as posible to be able to rod out the pipes.

Tight lines.

I am having a lazy day after my exploits with the copper. just as well as it has rained continuously today.

Good that you know a bit of plumbing. That kinda work here cost a fortune. It's sometimes $140 bucks just for them to show up. If I didn't have my nephew over the years who has a home improvement company, sort out my plumbing needs I'd be right f**Ked.

It's very expensive here too. Fortunately I can turn my hand to most things which saves me alot of money.

Is that your boat?  Quite nice. No "birds" on board to help you with your "bait" LOL! 

Did not realize until a few weeks ago, how much fun it was to be out on the water again.

I bought the boat from my father and keep it docked at his pier off his property. I am out on the Atlantic atm so you see less and less birds. The boat is a 22 foot pontoon.

He is a shadow of his former self unfortunately, but he still has a bit of flare and once settled into the game he can do some damage still.

His hair distracts me these days ... not sure if it's a syrup or a transplant  🙂

He did have a hair transplant (or more correctly a "scalp reduction") in the 90's, but with further hair loss he decided to go down the "hair system" route.  :default_detective:

 

What is a syrup? Google didn't help.
