    Ah yes they may be empty now chunky, but they have gone somewhere and I guess most of them went in your gob! :blush:

    I'll sort you out a nicely airbrushed signed photo, maybe with just the one gonad hanging out then? :p:grinning::joy:

    Excellent idea @Cyborgbot, I could advertise at a local University and start conducting interviews for a gifted woman, tis the holiday season and evening work for some extra cash is welcome. Would require a French maid uniform or less

    Wow, Prince Andrew has fallen on hard times if the only gig going is the grand opening of DD’s man cave.

    I have converted both my homes to LED. Made a HUGE difference in my electric bills. The workshop & garage have not got this upgrade yet. There is always room for improvement. I DID get to use the furnace I installed in the garage last spring for the first time last night. Raining and 40°f. outside/60°f. with a warm breeze inside :). LED lights in there WOULD be nice. ...J.D.

    Led lights are ideal for a shed or garage, instant on and not affected by cold temps. Down to about $20 for a shop light. Gutted the florescent lights in the caravan, and bought so tape mounted LED, slapped them on a piece of white cardboard. Tape is about $3/meter. Note that LED are 12 volt DC.

    You can buy 1 meter linear extrusions with cover that is only 17x5 mm for under counter LED for your workbench for about $3/meter

    As a born and bred west Midlander I can concur with DD's description, that's about right for specs DD for finer adjustment you can go with a lump variety
