Perhaps I'll leave the subtle jokes in the verbal realm from now

Is the "Bad" everything (Mom, Teacher, Grandpa, Neighbours) a franchise? It is bloody lazy though. Write a comedy about a particular person/group acting poorly and name it "Bad". Michael Jackson will be spinning in his hyperbaric grave.

The only one of the "Bad" movies I've seen was Bad Santa (produced by the Coen Bros) and I see they are now making a sequel.

Well, this just settles it for me...

So, he wont tell the government where he lives (though they already know), but he has just told the world that he likes to fish, will go away to fish, will sometimes fish overnight and that he wont be home on the 9th of August and that he's likes a bit of conspiracy.

PRIVACY FTW!!

That actually was a good movie.

Ok #tradietalk time.

I think i have diagnosed the issue with our hot water system, it seems that the pressure/ temperature relief valve is ****ed, i turned off the cold water inlet tap at 4pm when there was still hot water and tested it at 9pm and the water was still hot when if it were open would have been stone cold. It seems that there is a continuous stream of cold water flowing into the tank.

Now off to get some plumber quotes.

A plumber? Nah mate just do it yourself. Plumbing is easy. It's just water lego, innit?

 

[Grave Danger]

Whenever plumber mates of mine would decline to take part in legal/illegal fun it was usually because they were "on the turds" - ie they were on call.

I probably could. Looking at it, it doesn't look that difficult.

There's probably a step-by-step video on YouTube showing how to replace a temp/pressure relief valve which you can buy at Bunnings.

How much water is coming out of the relief valve?

 

[Eddie Dingle]

...How much water is coming out of the relief valve?

Depends on how much I've had to drink.

Up to episode 4 of stranger things... not bad so far.

Brilliant soundtrack to boot.

He is just waiting for bad little boy to be released...

I don't know, the relief pipe goes down under the slab.

Not sure that is legal.

Edit: It is not legal, AS/NZS 3500.4: Plumbing and Drainage Part 4: Heated Water Services - "Discharge must be readily discernable (visible)."

Ok wrong choice of words, it goes into a pipe that runs through the slab but is connected to the drain in the laundry.

Can you see any water running out at that drain?

The reason I ask is that if no water, or only a very small amount, is running out from the pressure relief pipe the it is very unlikely that that is the cause of the cold water constantly running into the heater tank.

I have never noticed or heard any water but worse there is always a warm patch on the laundry floor which you can feel that runs to the drain.

Did you ever read Homicide: a year on the killing streets? The photocopier lie detector bit was apparently something that the real cops that Simon tagged along with while researching that book would do. It's crazy how the most unbelievable stuff in The Wire is usually the stuff they just lifted wholesale from real life.

I think I might rather read about Michael Bisping at this point.
