    Sweaty socks

    Scotland were great, England lacked intensity, can't understand him taking Foden off, Kane is a worry, and he doesn't get any service. Can't understand why we're playing 2 holding midfielders either. The simple fact is Scotland will still go out, because they can't score a goal.

    Don't think it will be easy for the Dutch, they look weak at the back. Austria will cause them problems, alaba is one of the best players in the tournament.

    Van prices

    Again houses it's supply and demand combined with cheap borrowings etc. Ours is the same, I don't live in a mansion but ours is going up a good £50 grand a year, but as I say to the Mrs it's only paper money, as I don't intend on moving or downsizing so the only people that will benefit are my...

    Why is it though, It's just supply and demand, transits are currently on a limited run where they make them in turkey due to covid, there's a boom in self employed couriers that are buying panel vans up and once you buy one they don't depreciate as much as they once did. If you do your tax right...

    Euro 2020/21

    I don't think Scotland played too badly to be honest, they'll fancy a draw against England and beating Croatia and theyve done enough. Croatia were poor yesterday and offered very little, there not the team of a few years ago.

    Euro 2020/21

    Can see any more than France, there the best team by a country mile.portugals a good stab. Lewabdowski top scorer or mbappe or even Kane's a shout. Can't see Erickson, to finish top scorer your going to need 5 or 6, Belgium and Russia are in there group they both don't conced many.

    Render on timber?

    Not quite, don’t just board to the timber. It wants a vapour control layer (vcl) and a cavity behind the carrier board first, and trays fitting if you’ve any windows, otherwise you’ll be in trouble further down the line.

    Great season

    Sheff united missed Henderson, he made them a good 12 points last season.

    Great season

    I think they'll do well to keep raphinia, Rodrigo and a few others as the big boys will pick them off. If I were a betting man I'd say leeds will finish around mid table again.
  22. O

    Great season

    Top 3 don't be silly, so your saying your on a par with Liverpool, spurs, Chelsea etc. Leeds have done well, but they are where they are a solid mid table side. Great to watch but ship far too many goals, and are wildy inconsistent.

    He shouldn’t should he, as your aware, you want to be taking it up with him. You are where you are with it, it’s a shoddy job thus far carried out by someone that doesn’t know what there doing. There’s nothing no one on here can do for it is there.

    As said, silicone sealant. Your frames will contract in the sun your render won’t. You require siliconing around the perimeter, with a silicone of 20% flexibility.

    Lime render repair gone wrong - help!!

    Depends on what the expectations were initially as regards matching the existing, Looks like they haven't closed it in right. Look at a slightly textured breathable paint to take your eye off, the only issue is you will loose you're Ashlar feature i.e. the lines.

    Who told you it need priming ? Do you have a spec ? Why don't you speak to the renderers then if your concerned. To be fair unless its glazed brickwork the micro will do nothing.

    Solid Brick Victorian House

    Parex make a hydraulic lime bagged coloured render, Moyen and Clair range. Or if it's a solid wall brick wall, could you not insulate and use a synthetic render on it. If it's a solid wall it would require 90mm of eps to get a u value of 0.3 (building regs). The good thing about adding...

    Render.

    Saying all modern render systems are shite, is like saying all modern cars are shite because they once bought a Kia. Mixing sand cement in a belle mixer and rendering a gable by hand,in July, still gives me nightmares.plus as you say, none of the labourer rolling a tab and missing a shovel of sand.
