"I have the Karcher sandblasting kit - forget it, it works, but is only meant for small jobs, and their blasting medium is expensive and gets used up very quickly."

Things have moved on since my wife left - it's taken 18 months, but I am in a much more pragmatic and positive frame of mind compared with that in the early days and my first posts here, and I have met a very nice lady from…"

My wife and I came here in 2007 after a hell of a lot of deliberation, research, advice, and various recce visits. We chose the place that we both…"

Chris Kaley commented on James Higginson's blog post Speed Camera Blackspots in France (Guest Blog)"That's almost as ridiculous as telling a country to reduce its average temperature by 2 degrees. We live in daft times, governed by even dafter people."
Chris Kaley commented on James Higginson's blog post Speed Camera Blackspots in France (Guest Blog)"Speed is purely the rate at which you progress along a road. It is abstract. It, intrinsically, is safe. Speed can never be an "offence" Contravention of an arbitrary limit is an offence, but in itself means nothing."
Chris Kaley commented on James Higginson's blog post Speed Camera Blackspots in France (Guest Blog)"Don't agree. "Speeding" as you put it is merely a contravention of an arbitrary figure. Speed in itself is not a killer, but the reckless and experienced pursuance of it, and the exigencies of the…"

Phil Espley said… - Hi again Chris, I cannot emphasise enough to join groups. There is a "Cat Owners" one I think, plus the group for your area......you will soon get integrated, as SFN is a great supporting network. Get on that computer & meet people, they WILL help you, though you probably don't think so at this stage. Trust me! I've only been a member for a couple of months, and already feel as though I'm part of an extended family.
All the best [again] Phil.

Welcome to the network - we hope you find it useful!
If you haven't already done so, don't forget to upload a photograph of yourself so NOT your cat or your company logo (!), to your profile (use the setting button on the right hand side of your page) and you can pinpoint your location on the 'Members Map'.
Feel free to join any groups that look interesting or suggest your own the groups can all be found in the social tab at the top of the page. You can list items for sale in the Bring Buy and Sell group and add any events to the Events page. And come and say 'hi' in the chat window - we're all very friendly!
Best wishes
Catharine and James
