[18:25] <immu> yes good place
[18:25] <immu> they have worked hard to make it such a good place
[18:26] <daftykins> shame about the burning buildings
[18:27] <immu> yeah happens
[18:31] <EriC^^> heya daftykins
[18:31] <daftykins> sir \o
[18:31] <EriC^^> how are you?
[18:32] <daftykins> not bad thanks :) got a few snaps of what's going on in my house works - http://imgur.com/a/oKCQ5
[18:33] <immu> oooooo daftykins what am i seeing here?
[18:33] <EriC^^> nice! looks good
[18:33] <daftykins> got replaced window lintels in the first pic, there was rotten wood there
[18:34] <daftykins> next few are the scene in my office where another rotten lintel set is above another window, plus damaged woodwork - and one of the new window i've got ready for my bedroom
[18:34] <daftykins> final pic is the A-frame beam of the roof, which is very damaged
[18:39] <EriC^^> cool stuff
[18:40] <EriC^^> english architecture seems kind of cool, all the houses here are made of cement and just buildings
[18:49] <daftykins> :) mine's pretty historic though, from the 1600s
[18:50] <EriC^^> even cooler
[18:52] <immu> coool
[18:52] <immu> thanks for the walkthru
[18:59] <EriC^^> i'm getting an isp connection soon finally
[18:59] <EriC^^> no more using the phone
[19:00] <EriC^^> i hope it's fast enough to watch youtube without buffering!
[19:00] <daftykins> :D
[19:01] <daftykins> when my scaffold comes down i need to call my phone company, they're going to dig up the road and redo my phone connections
[19:03] <EriC^^> wow google doesn't help much with scaffold
[19:04] <EriC^^>     1.
[19:04] <EriC^^>     a raised wooden platform used formerly for the public execution of criminals.   2.
[19:04] <EriC^^>     a structure made using scaffolding.
[19:05] <EriC^^> i guess it's the wooden piece over the window in the first pic?
[19:14] <oerheks> dilatation, to give structural strength
[19:14] <daftykins> metal frame outside = scaffold
[19:14] <oerheks> in the old days one used an arch, but nowadays a concrete slab is as strong as iron
[19:16] <oerheks> scaffolding is my old profession, making workplatforms.. best thing is: when i was done, you see nothing.
[19:16] <daftykins> :D
[19:16] <daftykins> yep looking forward to that day coming
[19:19] <immu> cool daftykins we have a in house structural engineeerrr
[19:20] <immu> yuppy
[19:20] <daftykins> ooh funky, show him/her that rotten beam pic :)
[19:27] <EriC^^> i'm thinking what to add to the youtubextras comment fetcher site, hmm
[19:28] <EriC^^> i added a back to youtube button and scroll to top, also attempted to put a search bar but it isn't all done yet
