As dear old dad used to say, every business has its Christmas

And the alternative is Albanese. Good grief. What hope?

This just popped up in social media. Go figure https://yourhomeheroes.co/products/silicone-mould-hero Anyone used it?

We have the 4 burner/1 light Silhoette with the slotted cover and it does fine for us (John2b may go on about how wrong I am :) ). Replaced once in ~20 years. Not a bad run, and they keep making them so a replacement just slots into place with no other adjustments required

Hadn't seen this model until now. On face value it doesn't look like it has enough open area to create great suction.

Don't know about anyone else, but the photo is making it hard to see the planes and where things start/stop/turn. Maybe a bit wider and from above looking down for more of a perspective?

Yes. We have a stainless steel splashback behind the cooktop/range. Closest grout is 300mm from each side. If using tiles behind the cooktop, don't use a light colour grout

White subway tiles are a safe option. But larger format, eg 600x300 vertically work well. We chose this {in matt) and have never regretted it

What type and colour of benchtops are you getting?

That's good to know. Did you 'inject' the glue? I have a syringe with various sized needles which came with a PVA for a chair repair kit. But have never tried it with anything other than PVA

I've only ever used a bleach gel (Domestos, full strength) soaked toilet tissue for 24 hours (time it between last morning and first next morning showers). And I'm happy enough with the result for a few months I think I'll try the vinegar soak then the bleach gel soak next time. Might get 6 months out of the effort

Buh dooomm tish :D

I wonder what the CCTV revealed...

Put a plant in front

On BBC News... (Given the UK situation, I suspect they wonder what all our fuss is about) """ The Australian state of Victoria - home to its second largest city, Melbourne - is set to enter a snap lockdown late on Thursday, after it recorded two more local cases of the virus. The latest outbreak brings the total number of virus cases there to 18. This is the fifth lockdown Victoria has experienced since the pandemic began. It will last until Tuesday. The decision by Victoria means...

Fair warning! :D

you will have some wires to reroute regardless, and if you have the space for the fold-out ladder, I would encourage you to consider using 'that' full section for an attic ladder unit. The facing wall would take the load of the unit and one climber. Lots of space for all those bulky, relatively light, things to store away, and especially so handy to have the ladder always 'there'

This lockdown unnecessary? Comparing our Days 26 RPA COVID ICU is almost full. May be tomorrow. Where will it end? Vaccination is key

A gentle reminder, Sydney et al...

Stop it Phil. Given everything we have learned through this, that is just pure rubbish, and you are delusional if you truly believe otherwise. "Lockdowns ain't lockdowns, Sol"

How much fossil fuel does it take to manufacture a $23bn solar farm and the sub-sea cable from Au to Sing?

I have several colleagues in NSW (Sydney, Gosford, Wollongong) and talking to them about how lockdown is conducted, or actually, not conducted - there is no way the NSW definition and practice of "lockdown" will achieve anything much. Too slow. Too late. Too soft. The rest is the world is coming out of lockdown, not because (done properly) they don't work, but because of their vaccination rates

I agree the dollar amounts are not significant, but it's The Vibe :) (queue The Castle) I have about a year remaining until my 8.12kW system has paid itself off... happy days

I don't want any of them, but I don't want their jobs either

Here we go again. You are all talking like Gladys had borne your children.

One would hope all have learned from Victoria's (Dan's) disaster. Seems not...

This is no more than parochial claptrap. Gladys has failed you, big time. It will get worse before it gets better. Strap in, NSW!

Yep, it really is crap. Imagine, "We built a flat roof. Please arrange someone else to create a fall"

Why can't the balcony be built with a fall? Edit: oh, re-reading, it appears to have been built... 20/20 hindsight
