It's a bit far to collect,  I'll give it a miss.

I was a member for years, even got a photo of my bike in Tansha a couple of times.  After our local group died, I didn't renew and have joined a local, more active club

You know those chocolate brazils with the shiny chocolate coating?  That's carnauba wax.

I don't like that new fangled unleaded stuff, it just doesn't flow properly.

Don't remove it if you don't have to.

I didn't have an old toothbrush so I used my lad's one. He now looks like Jaws in a James Bond film.  He hasn't noticed yet though.

Clicking on that link led to a seller that had sold out.  There's 9 others though, so I bought one.  I look forward to having a go.

Or use a piece of hardwood.  It won't damage anything.  I've done it that way for years

I had this boiler fitted back in 2005.  At that time, I found it difficult to get someone to fit it because they're less efficient etc.  I could have gone down the combi boiler route but I would have to have radically altered the plumbing, including binning the recently fitted hot water cylinder.
I got the washer sent out, the original asbestossey thing has been superceded by a copper washer.  I'll fit it when I get around to it.
