Need to borrow some hose
« on: January 01, 2012, 11:34:56 pm »
I'm going down to Southampton, to help Captain Pugwash clean his ship on the 4th :D

I'm short of 100ft of solution and 2" vac hose

I have emailed someone local to me, but as a back-up is there anyone either already going there, or somewhere along the way, that could lend me the required hose?

I'll be going down the M1 from Northampton, round the M25 and then down the M3

The only complication would be that I'm likely to be passing by quite early in the morning!

Cheers :)

failing the diversion, you could check the tacca site for possible guys on your route.

Thanks Derek, had already had a quick look - not possible to tell from everyone's info who's got the right kit, i.e. TM hose.

I have a few options open but might be calling on you for a bit of help!

Cheers :)

Hi Jim,

Ive got some you could borrow. I will be there anyway.

Oh btw, the best route for you would be the A43/34, much quicker.

Fran.

Thanks a lot guys, having spoken to Simon today I think we will have enough.  Really appreciate the offers, thank you :)

Fran, just as a back-up if you wouldn't mind chucking 50ft each of vac & solution hose in your van that'll set my mind at rest :)

Also if anyone's got any vac hose joiners they might be needed!  Not sure I've got enough

Funnily enough Shaun that's exactly what I've been doing for the last hour, plucking and gutting pheasants!!!




P.S. I'm only plucking pheasants cos the  pheasant plucker's late!

Talk about doing it the hard way.
Cut off legs, wings, head. Cut down the back between skin and meat then peel the lot off in one go over the legs.
Did 2 on christmas day!

But then you don't have the skin to stuff butter and herbs underneath whilst cooking.....

At least that's the excuse I've been given, if I had it my way I'd just put them through a blender and make soup out of them.

My Mum is the master pheasant chef, I just take them round and they appear on the table a few hours later with lots of nice roast potatoes and veg :D
