Bruce Tuncks Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 You are a lucky guy Jerry. I didn't lose the instruction manual that came with a borehole pump, but I can't follow the main diagram and I can't find it on the net either. But, while looking, I did find something real important: the aquifer can't supply enough to keep the pump running. I had a valve shutting off part of the flow, but a much better way is to have a partially-open valve to return a %age back down the borehole. This avoids any overheat to the pump. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

facthunter Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 The thing women don't like is YOU proving SHE made the wrong decision. Of course there's a possibility she thought she could fix all your faults and was wrong there also. This advice comes free and is worth what you paid for it.. It is probably too late to be any use except to help you understand why you're like everyone else.. I can't imagine life without mine.

facthunter Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 Mine have been a bit more medical / associated stress than separation/ loss of communication. Hope I didn't mislead anyone. .

Jerry_Atrick Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 (edited) The trick is to sort the wheat form the chaff. The Chaff gets rough after a while and has to be discarded..

Jerry_Atrick Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 YT is largely a gem.. I fouund this: This is the first year of a very tough three year course and qualification; to buy the books from Kaplan would set you back about £200 and the course for the year is up to £2.5K. It's three years old, and the only thing at this level that would be the ethics standards... So, any youngster or oldster for that matter can do the course to get the qualification. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry_Atrick Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 When my partner and I first got together, she set me an expectation to get her flowers every week. My response was not to count on it; "after all, I'm an Aussie and we just don't to that sort of thing..." and then murmured something about a weekly gig on the kitchen table... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
