Back in Kingston now .......
Looks like someone has poisoned all my lawns!!
Bugger when the pump protection button has popped and pop up sprinklers don't come on!!
Going to be a very hot next few days so I'll be staying put & pouring the water on ..........
Tap timer on one side worked well ..... rhubarb is nearly over the fence!!

Bruce, I have an old Onga and the impeller rusts a little and won't start. Luckily the shaft sticks out a little and I can turn it to free it up.

Re: Where's Bruce?
mmm Mine is an Onga too.
I found a crack in the venturi that allowed the water to go around & around without building up the (jet) pressure.
Luckily my friend was an Onga agent & he had a spare one. Up & going now!
Gotta catch up & ask more details about those gennies after Chrissy Jon .... thankyou!

Re: Where's Bruce?
MMMMM....... I am very good with the pastry part, it comes in sheets from the supermarket freezer section and I've got real good at picking it out from amongst the other stuff...... so I'll be up for the pastry bit..... what sort goes with rhubarb and apple and custard? Shortbread or flaky?
