    s*ds law.

    perhaps what goes around comes around: you do 90+ but don't get caught, you then do 32 and you do get caught.

    Wires out of wall

    will look into where they lead to, but in the short term, how do I make the ends of the wires safe in case they are live. (BAS- planning to put thermostatic valves on the radiators)

    The Apprentice

    It was interesting to see that the person who won the job was not the person with the best selling skills, managing skills, idea generation skills,etc.. He was basically the most inoffensive of them all and whilst obviously a clever guy, had no strong business charateristics either way. This...

    Wires out of wall

    Fair questions re how boiler knows when to change temp - being no expert either i don't know. I don;t think it does. Over the last winter anyway, the only way to change the temperature has been to do it manually using either the dial on the combi or at the radiators themselves. Pretty sure...

    Wires out of wall

    I have moved into a house that has a combi boiler and so there is no use for the wall mounted thermostat, which has subsequently been removed. However, this has left three wires petruding from the living room wall. We plan to redecorate at some point (when I've saved a bit more money) but in...

    A bad scene.

    There are so many lines of argument we can go down regarding the rights and wrongs of going to univerisity. Personally, I think the growing train of thought that you have to have a degree or you are considered second rate is a dangerous path to follow. To live in a county that has a derth of...

    Radiator always warm

    I have a Baxi Combi 105e boiler in a two bed terraced house with a toal of five radiators. One of the upstairs radiators seems to constantly be warm, even the boiler is turned to hot water only. I thought perhaps it had been plumbed into the hot water and not the CH, but when the CH is on it...

    thank you to all those who made really useful comments!! Please try and remember your remarks next time you: - but too much paint (eg) when decorating and want to return some - buy/receive a gift that is then un-wanted and try and return it - your missus buys two items in the clothes shop...

    As I say, complaint wasn't about the price (although £15 in my pocket is better than in someone's till). The point was about the deviation from policy and attitude of the manager. Agree that I shouldn't need a brolly - think I'll have to move somewhere hot

    The point is not what I paid for it, or why I returned it. The point is that if a business has a returns policy, it is not for the manager to them make up his own policy, or indeed accuse the customer of lying. Also, if a business has a customer service line, the customer should not be accused...

    Apologies in advance for the rant but.... I went into my local Timpsosn earlier in the week to buy an umbrella. However, at £15 this was quite expensive and having not used it i decided to return it (with receipt). However, I was told that they do not do refunds and would only replace it if...

    If I'd have known how much that cost.....

    what about 11 minutes past eleven on the eleventh of november 1111, that's pretty symmetrical (1111 1111 1111) and more recent that 1001.

    Fitting aerial socket

    this is pretty easy to do, you shoyuld be able to pick up a socket form any decent tv store. You can then wire the existing cable to it and screw to the wall. Even simpler mught be just to buy an ariel extention kit to extend your current cable without creating an ariel socket.
