I couldn't remember that, so I did wonder.......then I realised that there was no evidence of old glue or foam in the upper surface!

Re: Pershore Plum Festival Car Show

It’s site access from 08.00. I usually arrive about that time and walk home for breakfast and to make my sandwiches! People are often still arriving at 10.00, which isn’t a problem as there is plenty of room in the park. Late comers just end up at the edges, so they don’t have to drive through the c...

Re: Sound Insulation in a R3

They must be in demand. I’ve contacted three people and they’ve all been sold. It’ll probably be easier just to do my own!

I do have a load of those air filled plastic pouches used for packing delicate items, but they will probably deflate eventually and t...
