There's lots of places up here, for people that like old places, the castle that they used for harrypotters hogwarts, is Alnwick castle, where the duke & duchess of Northumberland live, there's bamburgh castle on the north east coast, which is spectacular, & about 5 miles north, is holy island, or lindisfarne, by it's old name, which is one of the earliest seats of Christianity in the UK, if you google the lindisfarne gospels, you will see some truly beautiful holy work

Hey guys I need some info if you please. This is regarding the center pin gasket in the well of a REO. How can you tell if the gasket is thrash? I'm thinking, to check for resistance between center pin and 510 connector. Is it possible to double up on the gasket to make it last longer?

Can't understand why its so thin, worried nut to over tighten my atty every time. Sorry if this was covered before.

Is it true what Eddie Izzard said, that is--do you all live in castles over there?:)

On the new ones there are two gaskets. The normal one and a thinner one on top, to help prevent damage. You may want to contact Rob directly to see what he says. The first and foremost way to know is your spring will collapse....or in the case of a VV, it simply won't work. Sometimes you can visually see a damaged gasket. And you can use a volt meter to see what kind of voltage is making it through. If there is none or a wonky number, then you know you have a short or crushed gasket.

Yeah, real funny.

The ambulance just left... took a shot of adrenaline straight into the heart and three nitroglycerine pills to revive me plus one of the EMT's had me smoke a cigarette just to calm me down.

The health care people said they'll be delivering the oxygen tanks by five this afternoon.

What'da ya gonna tell us next, Reos can no longer be used in public because they look like detonators? :facepalm:

Honestly, I thought about it, but I figured by this point I had worn out my credibility on April Fool's Day. :laugh: Besides, I figured if Rob got too much grief because of me, Alice would come spank me. I ain't afraid of Rob (though I probably should be), but Alice is down right scary with a paddle :blink: and she's bigger than me.

I guess that's what I get for riding on the April Fool's coattails of others. :facepalm:

Thanks Lisa. I'll pm Rob bout doubling up or using thicker gaskets. :)
