Y'all have heard of Sealand, right? Some rando claimed a similar structure that was in international waters, and declared himself King of Sealand.

Actual nations ("actual" here meaning "ones with any power to speak of") don't think much of this, of course.

If you take the tallest dark splotch on the right wall to be a rider facing left, he has a big downward curved nose like Gonzo but shorter and fatter so I went with Watto. Below them near the bottom of the wall are two dark splotches to represent the front legs of the animal they're riding.

Left wall makes a large head and the stepping of the blocks makes the nose horn, one of the upper horns, and that frill on the back of it's neck.

I don't feel like drawing this one and accept you probably won't get it from my description.

Are they historic buildings that require special permission to do any repairs and specialist contractors to perform the work? This building would be cripplingly expensive to restore even if it wasn't a Grade II Listed Building. This is the kind of building that gets sold for $1 in the US.

I choose to believe that they got tired of their old, unused, drafty fireplace, and decided to fill the inside of the chimney with expanding foam to seal it, and that's what escaped through the failing brickwork.

That second one is just a DIY/simpler Clamptite tool:
https://clamptitetools.com/

I found the original on the internet long ago, and when I told my dad about it, he said he maid one in his machinist's classes back in the '70s.
Nowadays he just pays for the Oetiker-style "ear" clamps and has the pliers for them.
I still want a Clamptite-style tool, though. The clamps with almost no protrusion outward to catch on stuff is appealing.

If two different times you ground an electrical bit to a water pipe and both times you gently caress it up you can make a complete and very angry circuit

My brother is an electrician and he regularly complains about finding poo poo grounded to water pipes. It's a reliable sign your wiring needs to be completely redone.

Please don't forget that I am an extremely racist idiot who also has terrible opinions about the Culture series.
Went over to my girlfriend's house because her the ceiling fan in her living room stopped working.

Turned out to be because it was installed by a former homeowner who grabbed power for it from the closest thing available, which was the attic light. Which is switched at the top of the attic stairs.

Not crappy per se, but lazy as gently caress.
