Can someone tell me the official name of this type of bolt please, I'm sure it must have one.

Where have all the old fashioned hardware stores gone?...the nice man in a brown overall & a pencil behind his ear would know what I meant by 'twisty, bolty thingy' (even if it hadn't been invented).

Hi Shaney, we almost cross-posted. Almond cake ^^ above you!
Hello...? The green bar says my answer was added - wish it had also said where to :-/ I was saying hi there Shaney, we almost cross-posted, there's almond cake ^^ up yonder! in the post above yours.
Bingo... it's either none or it's two in the same delivery isn't it.
I hadn't seen that, shaney - I must look out for it. I have been watching Kate Humble make her way along the frankincense trail, and she's rather good. She got rather crabby when a Saudi astronaut took her up in a glider and then chose to do some unexpected aerobatics when gliding in to land again. Something along the lines of 'Are you mad, your royal highness???'
oh no!!! When I posted that last remark, it appeared on the Latest Post list! We are losing our anonymity. There will be trolls on the march. This is awful.

Morning all. Lovely day today so I have my washing out, There is always something, I now have to go for more blood tests as the tablets I am taking are having an adverse effect so I am Bl00dy fed up but I will try not to be a wet blanket and wont say anymore about it.
I hope you are getting through your problems Woofy and that your leg is getting better Shaney and Dolly hope you are getting sorted out as well. If I've missed anybody with ailments get well soon everybody.
I have the carpet man coming tomorrow to measure up and then on Friday my "blind" man is coming to fix the new blind so it shouldn't be too long before my lounge is sorted. I know I wont be sorry to put the garden chairs back in the garden.
Anyway take care all and see yer later 'gater(s) !!
By the way anybody found Vinny yet?!!

Sooo good to be back! Thank you Robinia, thank you Lottie and thank you Eds! I image googled "whiskery" (as I often do, instead of looking a word up in a dictionary) and a lot of old men and seals came up - can't imagine why Ed wouldn't want those kisses Lottie :)

OMG Shaney what are ginger creams, they sound like something I'd immediately develop a life-long addiction to...!

LOL at Vinny "It's the Beatles" - NOOOO...? Really? Could have fooled me! Perfect likeness over at RMD BTW. (Of the record cover, folks, of the record cover! Jeez...)

It's not the Beatles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqtlcHiSHTE />
