Best to keep them seperate. Would also block the ends up with somthing like sponge & it should be enough to keep concrete out, but easey to remove if needed.

If its a 25mm pipe? get a lenth of 4" soil pipe & cut it to the width of th trench. Then cut a 30mm slot down the lenth & slide it over the pipe & then put gaffeer tape over the slot to stop the concrete getting in.

I just got a good result, I was really peeved off with the 19% off-peak & nearly 40% peak rise on electric, But my LPG contract was a nice mistake in they wanted 50p a litre & they made some mistakes on the change over & said as a bit of compensation we will charge you 45p. Now this was all 11...

This & any other government have got to be totally useless to get us 3 trillion in debt. That 500mn will get wasted somewhere else.

Sounds like the three irish labour's that had the same name. "Its in the accent" ;)

Well, i moved to EDF, the night rate & day rate are 2p kwh cheaper Along with the day rate also being 2p cheaper than what i will be paying with my present provider. But what clinched it was the extra 2 hours off-peak every day. That will top up my battery. It also helps spread the load as the...

If its the same one? there is a company in Wembly Called Lee Electrics that did a lot of TV programs on location & work at The Borehamwood Studios.

There are many around, but it would be nice to have one here. Plus it would attract paying advertisers to this forum. win-win

Looks similar to the original one i had & great for security, but wouldn't focus on small things like text or close-up items..

Could be an idea, but it will cost a minimum of £ 70 for the meter, £ 40 for the receiver, and approx. £ 100 for fitting = £210 or £22 for a camera & £188 towards my gas bill.

I just had a hike of 19.8% off-peak & 39.7% peak in electricity prices. "I blame Trump", the man who doesn't have to worry about what things cost. We need a fuel forum where there is info on Gas/Electric/Water/LPG/Petrol/Diesel/ prices & deals are available.

We did some work for a start-up business in Park Royal, London, back in the 90s, called GENESIS 1:3 Ltd. We thought it was a strange name for a new business. Plus, it didn't help that I am not religious. But then found out it's from the part of the Old Testament that says, "Let there be light" &...

Just made me feel old finding out Stairway to Heaven is 50 YEARS OLD.

The gas meter is one we fitted a long time back as we are on LPG & there isn't a smart gauge for my one, but we could change the meter. The water meter was a smart one, but had a mind of its own & would often turn off or go to 20%, so i just changed it for an old-fashioned digit one as we dont...

Hi, I'm looking for 3 cheap ip pan & tilt cameras to read the digits on a gas meter, water meter & two pressure gauges that are all in my loft/attic as i'm 70+ & can see an accident coming with extension ladders & climbing up there for readings. I would prefer to see the images on my computer...
