    #AbsoluteUnit of float valve (about 2m long), from a plumbers merchant just outside #Colchester (I had to go there earlier in the year to help install some loudspeakers and PA amplifier for in store music, spent several hours up in a ceiling grid moving tiles and hauling cables with damp rockwool raining down on my head)

  3. Emergency dash to M&S to get size 9-10 school shorts for 7yo because his unworn size 8-9 ones don’t fit him. Nor do the size 9-10s, we discover. Back we go for size 10-11. #absoluteunit

  5. RE: mastodon.social/@die_reklame/1

    Sometimes a #cigar is just a cigar - but thats an #absoluteunit.

    If I've read it correctly they sell 1000 cigars for 100 Mark, so relatively cheap individually for a decent size cigar

    Maybe thats why my older versions of Handbuch für Fernmeldehandwerker have a safety warning "never bring a lit Cigar into the battery room" [1] as they would have been affordable even to apprentices.

    Cigars are bad for you, try not to smoke them (I quit in 2018, and they were already way expensive here)

    [1] lead acid accumulators give off hydrogen gas when charging and there are a *lot* of them in a Telephone Exchange, so such a mistake could easily end up as a last smoke.. 💥 🚒

  7. #AbsoluteUnit of #DECT #telephone set from #Motorola - updated version of BT Elements with rugged case, long antenna and separate (analogue) base unit (not shown in photos as its currently hanging off map pins on my office notice board with confidential stuff on it)

    Got 200+ metres range even with base unit quite low down (my office is in a dip) and position not exactly optimised for RF, could make calls from adjacent housing estate - from a distance it does look rather like an #Airwave terminal, resisting temptation to stand at top of road and watch leadfoots slow down 😁

    Connected to #Grandstream ATA, also works well in next door office, so I can now move between both and keep same extension number

    About £70 with base station, might also be good for #CCC and #EMF type events?

  9. #AbsoluteUnit of a #PressureWasher custom built for a #detailing garage in #Guguram #Haryana #India (the business has good reviews and is tagged as LGBT+ friendly on Google - prices are similar to or slightly cheaper than in the UK, but few detailers in Blighty can afford such kit (or even have both a shop *and* a three phase supply). 120 bar output, the dude says you have to steady yourself for the recoil when using it!

  10. For a last Beltie Break™ for today, here is a load of bull.

  11. El Plagiotriptus carli es un saltamontes de las montañas de Tanzania (no podría ganarse el nombre si viviese en otro sitio) de cuerpo plano lateralmente. 📷Michelemenegon #absoluteunit #insectos #insects

  12. Un elefante de Tanzania de 8 toneladas. A pesar de su tamaño, no supera los 3,96 m de altura y 11 toneladas del elefante más grande conocido, encontrado en Angola. #absoluteunit #elefantes #elephants

  13. Si las uvas anteriores te parecían muy duras, quizás prefieras estas uvas de Nagano, Japón. Tan solo cuestan unos 250€ el racimo de 1 kg y miden unos 4-5 cm de diámetro. (Estas sí son comestibles) 📷VietnamNet #absoluteunit #food #foodporn #comida #fruta #fruit #japon #japan
