Don't forget to remove the child first.


Spoilsport!


I take it you do not like children?

Well, I don't know about Rusty, but I've never managed to get any to
grow, despite burying a few in the garden. : P

Default Will all readers to this newsgroup please note ....

that from now on, any response to two different postings, but "The Same"
response, will be known as a 'Double Posting' and a 'problem'. This is NOT
confined to posters living on the Isle of Wight and will thus from now on be
known as 'A Thang'

Happy New Year to all posters, especially those newbies who 'dare' to poke
their head above the wall

Mike

Why go to all the trouble just throw a small electric bar fire in the barrel
with the child. They're sure to come out all crispy.

Someone has suggested using a gripper stick to hold/turn the nut
inside the butt I might try this suggestion on the dalek.


Sorry if this has been mentioned in my absence, but what you need is
probably a basin wrench, or "plumber's mate". They're designed for
hanging onto the nutty bit underneath a tap, so essentially the same
problem as a water-butt cock. The handle's about a foot long, so that
may give you enough reach without an ingenious Heath-Robinson
extension.
