Looking to see if there anywhere I can get a frame for a vinyl LP,
I have a lovely signed LP and it needs a frame.
I will add a pre made frame, can't afford to drop it into a framers and get done...

What size is the LP?

Suggest you just go around stores that sell frames, take a measuring tape and find one that is just over 12" wide. If you are lucky you might find a square one - though about 15" would be better for appearance. Mr Price at the Kingsmeadow roundabout has a good selection of frames, or Woodies does them too.

Anyone know where I might get this. Holland n Barrett don't seem to have this particular type. How about any of the ethnic stores maybe?

Does anyone know of somewhere that would turn an old t-shirt into a cushion cover for me? The t-shirt has sentimental value, but as a wearable item it's a holy show. So I want to give it a second life so to speak.

i don't think you would have got it any cheaper than that.

I find halfords to be good value recently

Halfords have great bargains but I'd prefer to support local businesses

That does not look suitable (heavy enough) for an 'open fire', but more suited to a primus stove or gas stove.
Also I would expect that plastic 'whistle' to melt off very quickly on an open fire.

Ideally you would want a cast iron kettle for such use.

EDIT: Something like this is what I had in mind

You might have missed my edit .... link to McCarthy's, Tramore.

Thanks Johnboy, that is exactly what I want, I had not seen them in McCarthys though I had a rather perfunctory look round a couple of days ago. I will go in again. Agreed, a gas one would not be suitable.

I guess they might need to order it ..... but it should be available from them.

Nope, just went down and got one!

tomwaterford · 03-08-2016 9:27pm

Anyone know where one would come across a chiropodist in the city or County

Just an addendum...I now have a cast iron kettle decoration - the water is not drinkable, and further investigation on the interynet suggests that you should not drink the water from this particular one, it is only intended as a humidifier. Which, in fairness, is how it is described.

I'd say there is one in the Health Park near Walsh Stadium, they seem to have most services there.

If you are interested in a brilliant school bag that will last you years...get a sport house one , factory shop out in Ida estate or possibly place like shaws or school book shop.bags are virtually indestructible.
