It would take about 40 hours to fill. And slightly cheaper to have delivered.

8 rafale jets just come over very low and very fast!
Normally (in the last 6 years) only get 2 pairs, target/attack.
Guessing the Ukraine might be getting some old French tech fairly soon!

Ours not looking so pretty - half drained and few slabs lifted. Got to fully drain next week ready for the boys to cut in 2 new inlets, lift about 25% of the slabs and replace the buried pipework :thumbdown:

Apparently, I'm a miserable sod! How so, you might ask. Well, I have a French Bulldog and my Sister also has one from the same litter. Today is their 1st birthday and my wife and sister want to celebrate it by having a party at a dog restaurant https://dogandco.co/ and I won't go so I'm a miserable sod! :wtf:

When I've had cats/dogs they have been part of the family, but sometimes I think some people forget that they aren't actually children!! :lol: :lol:

I solve the argument I've been told - that the cream stop the jam soaking into the scone, although WTF anyone would want to prevent that I don't know!! - by putting butter on first :angelic-green: :angelic-green:

I'm the only person I know that does that, but I do put cream on last everytime! But James Martin did it that way the other week and proper cheered me up!! (He did wuss out because he did half proper and half Devon!! :lol: :lol: )

Them Devonishers are a bit odd you know!! (From a bird brought up in Zummerzet!! :lol: :lol: )
