guage
A rain gauge (also known as an udometer,pluvia metior, pluviometer, ombrometer, and hyetometer) is an instrument used by meteorologists and hydrologists to gather and measure the amount of liquid precipitation over an area in a predefined area, over a period of time. It is used for determining the depth of precipitation (usually in mm) that occurs over a unit area and thus measuring rainfall amount.

Hi all

How many times have you been in a different car/van and needed to refuel. You pull into the garage and think Oh ****, what side is the filler cap?
Well the tip of the day is that on...

Hi all,

It should have been a 3 hour job, combi off, combi on.
