Hi y'all, just some words of advice, I have just dismantled my diverter on
the downcoming rainwater pipe leading to the waterbutts as we are moving
house soon, and found a lot of debri that included cherry seeds etc, this
must have stopped 50% of my rainwater collection for a couple of years, I
doubt if I would have ever looked there for problem, but it is well worth
checking along with guttering etc.
Every little helps. Mike, Cambridgeshire Dustbowl.

I suppose you will be taking the light bulbs as well (:-(
I was fortunately able to move in here with the waterbutts and diverter left
intact by the previous owner (:-)

An Instructor on the Electrical Courses at Chatham hated the word "bulb"?
"It's lamp boy, do you hear LAMP. Bulbs only grow in yer bleedin' garden."
That gem was sent in by a member and appears in the latest newsletter of the
Royal Naval Electrical Branch Association,

How could a gas lamp be a lamp if it didn't have a bulb. No a bulb is a bulb
and a lamp contains a bulb.
A gas lamp has a mantle, not a bulb.
