    Fuel filler neck legit?

    Yep! It is better to remain silent at the risk of being thought a fool, than to talk and remove all doubt of it. DNJ seems to completely ignore this.

    The war - ouch!

    I don't quite know what Octopus are thinking, but tomorrow's price of leccy, will be way back down.

    Fuel filler neck legit?

    You were obviously claiming to know a great deal about cars electronics systems, yet all you have managed to prove is - you know nothing much at all.

    skint and no heating

    Well, what can you expect but mould, in Mold :-) Our bathroom is also on the north/east outside corner. When I replaced what was a single-glazed window, fitted with a silly wind powered vent, with decent DG - I added a through the wall automatic electric fan. I fitted it in what had been an...

    Scammed!

    Yesterday, we had guy going door to door, touting for roofing work. They got the usual response from us. Today, I spotted the same individual, part of a group of six, arrive in two vehicles, a set of ladders, only two doing any actual work. I checked the registrations of both vehicle, none of...

    Then why are you professing to know so much, when you obviously know so very little?

    Ford KA brake pads.

    I prefer to free them on my drive, when I have need to free them - and safer. Simply driving back and forward, applying the brakes hard, usually does the trick. The smear of copper-slip, on the hub face, prevents it for later removals.

    skint and no heating

    I would suggest that is nonsense, and neither achievable, nor desirable. My humidity sensor/recorder, is on my landing. At this moment it reads a very acceptable 61%RH. It's record varies between 50 and 70%RH. The human body will find the atmosphere too dry, and uncomfortable, if it falls much...

    Redundant copper line removal

    That's one improvement as a result of fibre - RF doesn't bother it at all :-)

    Denial of Service

    This site seems to be OK at the moment, but my speed is down from normal, and Youtube doesn't work at all.

    What have you bought today?

    For the motorbike, I adapted a pair of old toothbrush heads, both mounted face to face hinged on a bit of steel for the job - so it cleaned off both sides at the same time.

    Redundant copper line removal

    After my fibre install, I did plan to get around to removing my now, completely redundant copper line myself - Then I read, that OpenReach would do it, if asked, and for free. I eventually found the form, here - https://openreach.my.salesforce-sites.com/form/?NRV Once completed, last Friday...

    Wired v wireless

    The Western World, imports most of it's manufactured items, from Asia, to resell. So there is often little, if any difference. My very old system, was a mix of German, plus a mishmash of items I devised myself, to extend its capabilities. It was mostly intended to be a visual deterrent. Around 1...
