The seeds being toxoplasma gondii
Ah, that explains the risk-taking behaviour focussed on red hair
What a nice and lovely little fellow.
Oh good. well that doesn't have to turn into an awkward conversation
The cat want's to rip your throat out.
Arh, a black cat. reminds me of one we used to have called Mindy. How old is it, it looks like it could be quite old judging by the odd grey bits of fur here and there, sweet though.

Now in true cat form he has chosen the living room sofa as a good place to sleep which displaces the humans. You don't own a cat, they own you. And man does he have gross farts.
This one is called Minka and is about 7 years old.Specmaster wrote: ↑Sat Jul 08, 2023 10:01 pmArh, a black cat. reminds me of one we used to have called Mindy. How old is it, it looks like it could be quite old judging by the odd grey bits of fur here and there, sweet though.
DOGS have owners. Cats have staff. Know your role, Mike!MED6753 wrote: ↑Sun Jul 09, 2023 3:04 pm All tired out after a long day of eating, pooping, playing with toys, running full speed from room to room, climbing my pants leg, and play biting Blondie's feet.

Clearly you people have never met my daughter's dog, Charlie.
In Europe, we sort of got started using Pozidriv (instead of Philips or Robertson) on wood screws and the like; the quality brand ABC-Spax was an early adapter of it. Now, Torx is being more and more standard on all wood screws. Hence, I've always had both available, since one needs them so alternatingly. The hp situation is nothing complicated for me. The requirement to handle AF inch sizes, though, has grown on me. It started so innocently with a couple 9/16" AF wrenches for the pool pump. Now I have combinations, sockets, and the lot, not only for AF but also for Whitworth and BA.Cubdriver wrote: ↑Thu Jun 22, 2023 10:56 pm Now that I have a good supply of both pozi and standard Phillips screwdrivers, I find that I run into the same transmogrification problem that I do with 1/2 & 9/16” and 10 & 13mm sockets - they all sense what you need and morph into their opposite number. When I need one, all that seems to be at hand is the other. Later when I need the other, they morph into the first I was looking for.
The other fun thing is when working on HP gear, have both at hand, because it’s almost always been bastardized over the years and will have a good mix of both drive types. A cover will almost always have at least one mismatched head type.

13mm is the better for 1/2".(1/2" = 12.7mm
) 5/8" and 16mm, 7/8" and 22mm, 15/16" and 24mm are all close too.

Male Hex: Metric (AF, BA) and Imperial (AF, BSW,BSF).
Female Hex: Metric and Imperial.
Other female: Pozidrive, Phillips, JIS, R+P, Spline (5 and 6 point), Torx, RIBE, Bristol. Plus security variations
And because I do aircraft stuff you can add: tri-wing, Hi-torqe, Torq-set, 12 point.
Robert.
