The hawkmeister is pretending he can't pronounce words again.

Chris Hawkins fans - do you actually enjoy the bit he does all too frequently where he struggles or pretends to struggle to pronounce an artist or word, often of slightly foreign origin?

It was a shit joke in the 70's, as a professional broadcaster in 2026 is it too much to expect him to just pronounce words properly? He has 5 minutes off air to ask his producer if he is actually that shit at saying words.

Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

Hey everyone, hoping for some advice here. Based in UK.

New fence delivered yesterday, all 6 of the 2.4m posts have white blobs over them, looks like mould/fungus to me. Fence companies sales team have told me it's just the pressure treatment seeping out and will wash off with first rain, although they will replace them if I insist.

I said I'd give them a wash down and see how they look after.

On the worst one there are black stains under where the white ones were.

This does not seem like pressure treatment seeping to me.

Am I being unreasonable to ask them to replace these?

Any ideas what this actually is?

Rest of the delivery looked fine, seems like these have been rotting in a corner of the yard for years or something. Cheers!
