In most cases you could replace Health and Safety with Common Sense. I am still of the opinion that we should remove ALL warning labels off of EVERYTHING and let nature/Darwin sort their **** out. Won't take long... Nice thing about that is that you are constantly doing housekeeping. You will always be refining the herd.....

Been running Goodfellas as well [emoji106] Haven't used it that much though. Must spend some time there. So far the Goto addons are Exodus, Phoenix, Goodfellas, UK TV Again and FilmonTV with the occasional look at Sportsdevil

Stumbled upon UKTV Again. Loads of content (Discovery, BBC, ITV, History, Sky etc) quality is a bit hit and miss unfortunately but content is abundant.

Is that a nice way of saying they are fat?

Thanks. The facebook part may be a problem though....

Anybody else having issues with the FTV EPG? It's loading but shows no programme available for all channels.....

So not your typical TV series but it is available on RedbullTV so it does count. The Wizard of Nairobi There are a few more there that I want to watch as well.

Some say that he is able to set segment times in Capetown while riding trails at Giba....

That is a thing of beauty Brian. Where do you find these things? There is just something about a lever machine.... What do they normally go for?

Just had a call from Wayne @ More Flavour. They are aware of the fakes and they are taking action Will send him a link to this thread as well.

Thanks for that. I absolutely will contact him. I went to leave a customer review for the knock off from Timber Trend but the product has been pulled already... Edit: Sent a mail to both David and Wayne

This came through Takealot but it had the More Flavor branding on the packaging. My options were Takealot or Takealot.... I had a credit that was sitting there since April and I needed to spend it. After complaining about the Timber Trend unit, they passed another credit... Luckily More Flavor were also vendors so I ordered from them And being as well schooled as I was by that stage regarding most things Aeropress I was guaranteed of a good product!

New Aeropress arrived from More Flavour. All is well again No response from Aerobie though....

I must confess that I made a copper pipe candle stick holder However it is now in the cupboard as I have seen enough of them online.... My wife's friend saw it and she wanted one so I said no problem. I had to buy some fittings so I did a costing on one holder to hole 3 candles. Totaled everything up afterwards Damn those fittings are expensive!!

That screwed pipe stuff is cool the first time you see it.... Like most things though once it goes all mainstream, the shine wears off very quickly. I am all for upcycling but then do proper upcycling of stuff that is genuinely lying around.

And screwed pipe furniture... Don't get me started on screwed pipe furniture....

I have been finding out a lot about Aeropress these past few days.... You can consider me schooled

Thanks. Just sent them a mail with the details and pics as well as a link to the takealot link. Will wait to see what they say Edit: After reading up on the Aeropress Materials page it is quite apparent that I almost got shafted...

So the supplier (Timber Trend) assures me that it isn't a knock off and the reason for the lack of branding is that they were offered the option of branding or no branding and they chose not to brand...... Mmm Kay.They offered to replace or refund me to which I politely declined. They apologized for the bad quality and assured me that they would take it up with the supplier. I decided to just leave it at that. Beware the Aeropress from Timber Trend......

Yeah, I think it fell more under their returns policy than the "Hey you sold me a fake!" policy unfortunately. Going to contact the supplier direct and see what they say...

They didn't seem too concerned TBH. I called them as soon as I realised and told them I wasn't happy with the item and that I suspected that it was a fake and wanted to return it. Women said "So you aren't happy with your purchase?" I said not at all and she processed the return. Courier collected yesterday.

Pretty sure I was as well. Didn't expect to be, seeing as I bought it through Takealot.

My original Aeropress was leaking between the plunger rubber and the tube so I placed an order with Takealot for the bargain priced Aeropress posted a few posts above. R599 delivered to my door seemed like a good buy (at the time). Reason for going that route was I had a credit with Takealot that needed to be spent and there wasn't anything else that I needed from them. So it was delivered on Friday and I couldn't wait to get home to make a cup without dribbling coffee all over the counter. Opened the box and removed the unit from it's packaging and was immediately struck by the poor quality of the replacement. I figured that the QC at the factory must have really slipped! Then I did a side by side check and the differences were quite apparent. I realised then that I think I was served a fake... Missing branding, different materials of construction, bad finishes on the new one compared to my old one Have a look at these pictures and see what you think: No visible branding on the RHS and the printing is off centre No visible branding and a different looking material Super sharp edge where there should be a taper to allow the plunger to enter I ended up sending it back and I now have another credit that I need to spend <facepalm> Going to see if I can get a refund. #bummed

Took a SnapOn 1/2" ratched to the agents and asked them to look at rhe ratchet as it was slipping. They told me it was a wearing part and not covered by the lifetime warranty. I bought a Gedore replacent...
