    Light bulbs, end due 31-8-09

    Why do they not allow that with a frosted finish? Banning frosting makes no sense to me. No matter, I'm sure there will be no shortage of bulbs on ebay. I personally have used energy efficient bulbs almost exclusively for years and years but this seems to be a very stupid way of forcing the...

    Interlocking laminate flooring puzzler

    Hi all! I'm about to lay laminate flooring in our hallway and I have a question re the door frames. In the other rooms we cut the laminate around the door frame, this cutting was mostly covered by the trim over the join between the flooring but is less than perfect I would say. This...

    Socket + Fused spur ?

    Hi all I've been reading these forums quite a bit but this is my first post ... I have a socket in the kitchen with a fused spur taken off for an extractor fan, it looks like this: (they are not straight because the fused spur is not screwed on the wall in that picture!)...
