Re: Rinse and Repeat

Thanks. A someone learning a new "hobby" myself (so not work here, but related), I've currently received

so much help from those in their 60's and often retired.

"I need a gas pipe clip for a caravan LPG system, but don't know what I'm looking for as locally only does mains parts" and the answer was "it's 8mm clips". That's knowledge of what a thing is called, where it goes (when the manual says "bolt" on the "device" to the "left" and there are probably 120 bolts in the thing!!!) is price less.

I really should invest in biscuits, pints and a lot of praise for those willing to teach newcomers to a job or a skill.a
