    I'm sure the usual small clique of angry, middle-aged posters will round on me, using this forum as an emotional vent, but usually it depends on your local waste disposal centre - the amount they can take varies, so you have to ring ahead. As long as it's the cement bonded asbestos tiles, we were discussing, and as long as you've double wrapped them in thick polythene, you can drive them yourself.

    Get a pro to remove it. Either that or wear 15 masks that could (allegedly) prevent damage from covid-19.
    It's bloody nasty stuff, even if being worked on (demolished) outside with gale force wind blowing.
    You don't want you neighbours suing you !

    I believe the COPD I suffer from (emphysema in old money), despite 60+ years of smoking, was the last straw when I got through 1/2 way removing asbestos lagging around the water pipes in the house when I was planning on re-plumbing the home water system.

    Honestly, not to be messed with. At least get some advice from a pro.

    Bit of an emotional post tbh TC.

    Get a grip man.



    Not of asbestos obvs.

    Leave that well alone and get an expert in.

    As you wisely say, not to be messed with. Get advice from a pro.

    Spend some of that money pit, board up all the air-leaks around your home (doors, windows, chimneys, cat-flaps etc etc) and go on a holiday for a month.
    Oh yes, when you come home, check around the garden to see if there's any freshly turned soil :emoticon-0105-wink:

    Edit: Don't forget the stables either, the nags have large lungs :emoticon-0100-smile

    I’ve dug loads of the **** out my garden. And I mean loads.

    Hit it with the shovel, it inevitably cracks. Bare hands throw it across into the **** pile.

    It puts hairs on your chest.

    Does anyone know the tolerance on the lengths of C16 timber?

    I need to cut 2x bits of 1530mm and 2x bits of 1460mm. Chopsaw blade is 1.5mm. Hoping to get these out of 2x 3m bars but if they’re supplied undersized it’s going to be very close.

    Yes, go buy a pie.

    During this morning’s state-authorised, partner-designed 10k safari, we decided we really fancied a pub lunch. With no actual pub options, we ended up getting a giant Jones steak pie, with Gastro chips, peas and gravy.

    Not the same as going to the pub, obviously, but not too shabby.
