Did you hear that? That's the penny dropping... King Diamond = a musician = eerily like your avatar? I've asked the all knowing Google and will have to play a few youtubes in a bit. I don't think that's dorky at all. Car's named Neil so I can make double entendre jokes about what fits in his boot & the sat-nav is Neville, helps to have a name when yelling at it. :)

Ms. Anita there is nothing more frustrating than that.... Reminds me of when I built my computer... Didn't have enough barbs at the shop for my water cooling set up... Added an extra three days to the build.... And got me banned from that store.....
:ohmy: Oh No !! I'm sorry you got banned ! You guys are cheering me up though, so I'll make it until morning :)

:laugh: Sometimes it's those tricky little seal gaskets and may not be the Hubby's plumbing. If they don't seat just right in the pipe connections at the sink they will leak. Or the rubber O-rings do that too. Hey, at least your hubby tries to do that stuff ! A lot of hubbies aren't even willing to try :)

Ms. Mookelboo I suggest anything off the Abigail album, or House of God... Warn you, purple either love or hate his voice, no inbetween... :) "The Black Horsemen" is a personal favorite. :)

I'm not Ms. Anita, they deserve my tirade... How are you a computer specialty shop with a w/c section and only have 2 barbs in stock... Glad you're feeling better. :)

Keela & Anita - came home one night after a very busy day's work to find my Mr. in the bathroom with the toilet pulled apart holding a hack saw and a piece of pvc, bleeding and swearing profusely. When I asked my darling what had happened he informed me that he was trying to get the part to fit. He'd been to the hardware store 4 times buying and returning flushing mechanisms that wouldn't fit. He was determined that this one would.

My mistake was asking why he hadn't brought the old one for size the first time out.

That was the last time I helped around the house. :p

:laugh: I don't think I'd be much of a help to you there Morandir. About the only thing I know having to do with computers is how to turn them on, off and type a little on the keyboard...LOL :) Wish I could help though, really I would if I could

It's leaking around the drain....he finally got the pipes to not leak...he blames the sales guy for talking him into the PVC pipes....yea...well....they have nothing to do with the drains....he tried putting putty on both sides of the sink....that didn't work....guess what the yahoo did next??? I coulda killed him.....he bought silicone to put where the drain meets the sink....and he bought WHITE!!!!!:facepalm: HEEELLLOOOOOO can you say STAINS galore! I could have rung his neck...and it didn't work anyway! I keep trying to get him to just go get new drains with a wider lip.....ha....I'm gonna have to go get it...and if I have to get it, I'm puttin em in......without the white silicone!!!

:lol:...I never pass up that kinda opportunity:lol: He's a sport though....he'll laugh with me and then tell me "go ahead....call your mom...I know you wanna"....lol

That's too Cute !! Whenever I'm not exactly sure of replacement of anything, I ALWAYS bring the old piece with me. Funny how sometimes my hubby & I can work so well together, it's like we're an extension of one another. The there are other times when we just want to kill one another on a project. LOL !! I do most of everything now myself. The COPD has limited what he can do anymore without feeling bad afterwards

It's just plumbing Ms. Anita, you'd probably be able to do an excellent water cooling set up if you really wanted to. :)

Ms. Keelalagirl you have the patience of a saint. My wife would have killed me... :)

Funny, I never used to.....then I had a kid......All of a sudden I had patience galore......seriously...like overnight.

He's off next week.....I'm REALLY hoping that is part of his to do list.....

LOL, you're probably right ! They make different size drain baskets for different sinks. Also there are different gaskets that go under them to help seal it.

Maybe I should take a vacation from Florida and stop to see what I could do Morandir LOL, On my way to Ohio to help the sink situation ! LOL !!

Ms. Anita you are welcomed any time. Just hope you don't mind the dogs... And I will offer my audience with the Ohio situation.... Even if that just means I hang out with Ms. Keelalagirl and her awesome dogs.
That sounds great !! And I know you both will be ready during the sink operation if I call out 'scalpel' ! Oops, I meant, 'VAPE' ! Just like the operating room attendants at the hospital...LOL ♥ It'll be fun
