    Door hinge screws not secure, quick fix?

    Is the problem! They are simply not willing to engage their own, built-in, problem-solving abilities. I mean just look at some of the problems posted by some of the posters, and the originator is one good example. Then the most recent post today by the Jupiter character, where he had to be told...

    Plumber explains what radiator numbers really mean and why you should 'leave it' at 3

    The point is still going straight over your head..... For the room stat to click off, the room temperature has to exceed it's set point, which means the TRV has to be set higher than the stat. IF the TRV is set higher, then the temperature will be controlled by the stat, the TRV cannot operate...

    Trying to identify my underfloor heating cold tails

    You would need to both check the continuity of the circuit, and the insulation resistance, before even considering whether it was worthwhile pursuing.

    Henry hoover - no power

    Here we go, another multipage thread... Have you considered even considered testing/changing the fuse?

    Correct Eric, but the point you seem oblivious of, is that the room stat switches on when it gets cold, the TRV switches off when it gets too warm in the room.

    Glow Worm Ultimate 35c F28 Fault

    https://www.skillstg.co.uk/blog/glow-worm-boiler-f28-fault-code/ Seems it was just a coincidence that it worked the first time!

    Did you not read post #8, #27, and #28?

    What's in a name? I repeat - a normal TRV fitted radiator, limits or restricts the temperature in the room. A room thermostat, is there to call for heat, when the temperature falls too low. As such, the two cannot work effectively if co-located, in the same heated space.

    Just finished my first Turkish Mosaic Lamp! (Need some LED advice)

    Looks like another potential Ad to me!!

    Door hinge screws not secure, quick fix?

    That would be as long as I would need, applying logic. That was the sort of job I would have taught myself to do, and did, as a 12 year old. Even more obvious, and simpler. Why is no one learning any basic, practical skills these days, is a question we ought to be asking. Why are so many...

    OK, and who is in charge of the vehicle, and who simply does as he is told by the driver?

    New High tech cameras to enforce 20mph roads

    I do absolutely agree with the limits, if I didn't make that clear - on both a safety, and amenity point of view, but without proper enforcement they are pointless...

    Domestic Aircon power supply

    Most are not a constant draw of 3Kw, if you think about it. Fan heaters, washing machines, driers, all usually include a thermostat, and switch off frequently, allowing both socket, and plug to cool down.

    What’s going on here?

    Yep, it bonded itself to the cores, and needed some effort to get it completely off.

    New High tech cameras to enforce 20mph roads

    The 20mph is absolute nonsense, and will remain so, unless it is enforced, and enforcement is quite rare. I've just done a bus trip, to and from the local town, sitting at the front, of a double-decker, where I was easily able to see the driver's own speedo. Unlike car speedometers, these are...
