Just shows Dave,if your prepared to graft you will make a Bob or two mate. With me the heart is willing but the hands are knackered always cramping up after I've done any work. Somebody said I might have Carpal tunnel syndrome, whatever that is. Anybody any ideas?
Get that mesen Bob, it,s a by product of ageing when thaz spent a lifetime graftin doin a lot o grippin. Good job female flesh is soft and responds to gentle stroking rather than az tho thaz tryin to hang on to a fukkin jack ammer fired up by a compressor!
Had a commission today a builder asked me to video his site. On way home looked at the return of soil to the cable sites. in the last part of this video the drone was low on battery and returned on its own

Nice one Jack. No good for metal detecting and digging up modern cable!
it would incur a shock to the system Dave
Instant electrocution Jack 😯
What's the range of your remote Jack? Looks as though was a fair distance.
About 2 miles i started to loose signal near the church. Apparently the signal in the UK is reduced. In the US the mini 4 & 5 can get 5 or more miles
So you have to be careful not to fly into a 'red zone'?Posted by: @jackw102About 2 miles i started to loose signal near the church. Apparently the signal in the UK is reduced. In the US the mini 4 & 5 can get 5 or more miles

Met one of the neighbours with his drone filming a re-run of the old Carrowdore 100 motorbike road race and when his drone went out of sight I asked about it's range. Was surprised when he said 2 miles or thereabouts, although I remember Mick in Scotland had a Parrot one not much bigger than my hand and used to send it out round his nearly 200 acres without losing it so I suppose I shouldn't be surprised! 😮Â
It wouldn't have helped me today, the Ayathola decided that her big MDF wardrobe needed adjusting after the delivery men in left it slightly skew wiff on two doors. Simple enough you would thing with adjustable hinges.well first hinge I adjusted the door fell off eventually after a struggle working on my own with lots of effing and blinding, I manage to get it back on and adjusted. Then she says have you done that door yet!
I feel for you Bob! Mine has just ordered a load of new handles for furniture in a spare bedroom that will be used about twice a year and some will need new holes drilled and old ones filled and matched to the wood of course. Yesterday went to buy paint which took most of the day and visits to every paint store between here and Belfast, a grand spent on carpet for the same room, and a new bed after having me burn 2 perfectly good ones at the old place! Our work is never done!
I av a gud excuse these days if a mek a bollox o summat n a put summat up n it,s not level or straight cos o the state o mi mince pies. Dunt affect mi view of a nice arse or tits tho,burra think that,s moor instinct than owt.
