[@Elbows-Deep]

I knew I would get somthing on squints 😂 I know I should but choose not to. Yes it was a pitch fibre pipe 😂

[@peteb3365]

i used to be like that, try having couple bits metal removed from your eye like i did, its never been the same since. if i was to say one safety thing.....its safety glasses! we just caring for you jamie ❤️

[@Elbows-Deep]

@@peteb3365 Thank you Pete. I will get some new ones. I have had metal in my eye before too, i keep a magnet in my eye wash station lol i also have a floater in my eye, you would think i would have learned by now. Your totally valid tho Pete and i should set an example. i will get some

Driving a stickshift! I cant believe how narrow the roads are there!

[@Elbows-Deep]

Ive heard that too, how wide are US roads.

[@xraytech8332]

@@Elbows-Deep Our roads are more than wide enough for big trucks to pass with no issue for the most part.

Thank you Jamie and Becky, you gave me a lovely evening again 💓

[@Elbows-Deep]

No thank you, thank you so much for watching 😊

Brilliant video. Jamie, good work on the video editing and the job itself. Becky, kudos for jumping in with a hand down the pipe. Incredible view from that back yard. Super-nice customer too. Here in Minnesota people call it 'drive manual' or 'drive stick' interchangeably. What weirds me out about roadways in the UK is how common it is for there to be tall hedges and buildings less than a foot from the road. I suppose many of those roads existed a couple hundred years before the American colonies rebelled. Take care.

[@Elbows-Deep]

Thank you for your brilliant comment Arty, Becky loves getting involved, Hates standing around for sure. Yes most if not all roads have hedges to the sides. I think its to screen off the road from whats on the other side and nature and also they help deaden the sound of the road and lower pollution. The houses being so close to the roads is mainly very old areas hundreds of years old, A lot of the UK is very historic, old and protected.

[@kathallport8747]

You and Becky work very well together and have a great time..love your banter

[@Elbows-Deep]

Yes we do, Thank you so much for watching, really hope you enjoy.

Great video Jamie and Becky! That was a little different, but fun! 😊. Nice footage and rootage. We call it driving a stick here in the US.

[@PaddyDoc]

That was a mighty episode, half way through the lights came on and a woman was selling choc ices, Turkish Delight & cups of watered down orange calypso drinks, then just got back from the bog in time for the second half. Thanks for the show Jamie, and Becky, see, I don’t forget you Becky (flutters eyes & swoons 💚) Delightful stuff ✊

[@Elbows-Deep]

Sounds like it was an event Paddy 🤣🤣 Glad you enjoy watching, it was a long one.

You’re not wrong mate, just glad I didn’t need a poo 🤣🤣 💚✊👍

[@nonotthatoneguy]

Most of us call it "stick shift" or just "stick" (the shifter resembles a stick coming out of the floor). Some of us call it manual. It just depends on how we were raised. As far as automatic transmissions, my grandparents told me that they mainly gained popularity because it was "so easy a woman could operate it." Of course, it also gave men a free hand for "other things."

[@Elbows-Deep]

😂😂 that’s brilliant, love the older gen’s

[@margaretlanger6802]

You certainly got Elbows Deep today. Good video. We call it manual, stick shift and ugh I can’t drive that kind of car. 🚙 I have driven stick before but I will stick to automatic.

[@Elbows-Deep]

😂 thanks for watching to the end Margaret.

very neat pointing jamie 👍

Thanks Pete 😊

credit where credits due. so many people would not troweled it off.

[@tbecause4897]

Drive a stick, stick-shift, manual, or for us old peoples (Gen X and older) a standard transmission Then, you’d hear “3 on the tree”, which is a column shifter, instead of the floor. In Murica, we call manual transmissions Millennial Kryptonite

[@Elbows-Deep]

🤣🤣 Millennial Kriptonite

[@ToniHeon]

I love your good leather cowboy hat

[@destinationom]

Manual in Canada is very rare. Even in commercial vans like the one I have its automatic. Our "big rigs" or "18 wheelers" are all stick shift. Some sports cars will be stick but otherwise the vast majority are automatic.

[@cheryleking6543]

Hi, Please wear safety glasses..You need your eyes..just worried for you...I really enjoyed learning on this video. Never seen 1 of those pipes before..Very interesting. Stay Safe from a Tasmanian Fan ❤️🙏👍🤗

[@Elbows-Deep]

I promise i will get some, I knew i would get at least 1 comment about it but i have had many so yes i will, Old habits. The Pipe is a relic from the 50s and 60s, short lived and still about unfortunately.

[@jamiekatz7591]

Bro, it's 105F here in my part of Arizona right now down 10 F from the norm. IT'S NOT HOT THERE!!! EVER!! Its driving a stick or manual, and I've never seen a manual stick in a van since the '60s. Smart huh?

[@Elbows-Deep]

its the humidity that makes it unbearable Jamie. 13% in Arizona vs 73% here, It literally sucks the life out of you. being such a small land mass with the ocean never more then a few hours away from anywhere in the country the Humidity is always high. I have a south African friend that suffers more here then we do lol its not just the heat its the combination. I think the science of it is, because the Humidity is so high out sweat dosnt evaporate so we are unable to cool down.

[@stevelammers2536]

Cut that 4”” cast iron up a couple of feet

[@_tmmy_]

Made a lovely job of that repair Jamie and Becky, the pointing looks really neat!! After doing a bit of research on pitch fibre pipe (given that I have never heard of it before), turns out it was briefly used in the 60s as a cheaper and lighter alternative to clay, but was soon phased out by plastic. www.draindomain.com/pitch%20fibre.html

[@Elbows-Deep]

Yes, its a nightmare because it gets squashed over time and its too weak. i did hear somewhere it came about after WW2 as an alternate due to lack of materials or inflated prices as a cheaper solution, we quickly found it it was trash.

[@_tmmy_]

It’s like vulcanised rubber cable that a lot of similar aged properties were originally wired up in, it only lasted for a couple of decades before falling to pieces. While clay pipework does have its cons (i.e. root infiltration and fractures due to ground movement), the vast majority of it has done really well to last this long, especially as given that some of it will be nearly 200 years old! Once again really enjoyed the video Jamie, see you on the next one 👍🏻

[@peteb3365]

its platicy and pipey...must be a plastic pipe 😝

Great content today but please stop taking other people’s quirks e.g. music and the tea

[@Elbows-Deep]

Thanks, The tea was unintentional, not a habit for sure, i have my own Quirks and try to be as original as i can, The music however, i love it and its a must for me personally, I know others also have it but its kinda hard to own that, I wont be without the channels background music. thanks for calling it out tho, it hadnt crossed my mind until it was noticed regarding tea.
