pump and circumstance

[Andy Hall]

You have to inform the BCO now. Part W - or did you miss all the discussion on that? Don't forget part T on tin extraction.

[Grunff]

Not my precious tin!

[Mike]

You only need one for new installations. And there are exemptions in many areas anyway where they're only too glad for you to take some water out of the ground.

[BigWallop]

I thought that only dealt with digging a new well, not using an existing one. They need to test for contaminates in the surrounding ground before they allow any water, be it for human or animal consumption, or even just watering plants, to be extracted without these tests being done. It's more to do with health and safety aspect rather than the actual construction of the bore hole I thought.

[John]

So part P is really all about taking the P...

[N. Thornton]

Yup, but you dont need any extra equipment to start the syphon action. Put all the tube under surface of fuel, with just an inch or so out of the fuel, and put thumb securely over tube end. Now move tube end to its destination and remove thumb.

What is a jiggle pump? Google returns no hits.

This time (on my newsreader) NT's post appears in the right place but without the "Re:"

Any ideas what google is on ?

Your "newsreader" doesn't follow convention. Anyone with a proper newsreader will have problems.

[Mike]

It does usually, but not this once. Strange.

If you haven't changed anything then it is strange. There is a setting in OE that groups messages by title rather than reference, maybe that's it. MS stuff does have a habit of changing itself every now again for no reason whatsoever.

Thats sounds like a good idea. Google normally says 'Unable to retrieve message [e-mail]' even though I just read it courtesy of Gurgle, but one time yesterday it worked, so probably put the right headers in for once.

I mean to get a better system up, but really have a whole bunch of more pressing things... tis life for the round tuit starved among us.

Rather than wasting your time ruining usenet how about spending 1/2 an hour setting up Forte Free Agent and a news account with individual.net. If you've got so little time how come you can spend time wading through Google Groups, a proper newsreader would be quicker.

I can't see your logic behind this one, I don't think you should be contibuting anymore until you sort yourself out, you're a mess.

And in the mean time everyone has to suffer your inconsiderate use of Google for the purpose of your anonymity. PRAT and re-plonked.

[Brian Sharrock]

it seems that the term is a local one - that's what it was named to me and that's what my kids call it too - however: while googling for it; I encountered the following URL: -

Transfer Pump SO-MD37695 Price:£7.59

An all-plastic manual pump for siphoning fuel.

Tap on one end of tube, and cup with ball bearing valve on the other - ideal for no-mess transfers.

[I have no connection with the company or product] It seems to be a more sophisticated ^W expensive version of the more generic 'fluid' pump but shares a similar corrugated concertina pump chamber that I'm familiar with. Perhaps it's aimed at power-boat owners who are notorious for their indifference to money ... and their wakes!

[Ian Stirling]

So you annoy a large fraction of those reading, instead, by breaking threads you post t.

[Bob Eager]

I think you mean 'paranoia'...

[Grimly Curmudgeon]

It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember david thorpe saying something like:

ON/OFF leverarm ballvalve on each one to a common outlet.
