    Pint of Beer

    On a 22ounce glass then filled to the 'Pint' line. Sadly on a 20ounce glass the legal decision is 5% can be head - that is a lot less than 2 inches of wind and froth.

    Ethernet around house

    No. The white box with flashing lights is the ONT (Optical Network Terminal) converts 'Light comms' to wired comms. The CAT5 or 6 cable that goes to the router is effectively a WAN or a LAN circuit. You can run cables from the output side of the router to various points around the house. But...

    Parking tyre half-on kerb

    I think it depends on how you are driving onto the kerb. If you are driving onto the kerb at a low angle you could be knocking the bead off of the rim.

    I'm in Yorkshire for a few days... Am I being unreasonable for refusing a pint glass of beer with a 2 inch head? I asked nicely for it to be topped up. According to the bar maid who poured it I am!

    Support For Farmers

    I can. This proposal goes someway to trying to make the UK more self sufficient in good production. Recently for many farmers the only way to stay in business is to use the land for other purposes (Solar farms, Business units, 'Play' facilities) which are more profitable than top of production.

    trailer tyres

    With car tyres of that size on a trailer I'd run them at 26psi. Dedicate 'small' 8" Trailer tyres should be ran at max marked pressure. If the trailer is bouncing then do try a lower pressure but be careful as when a loaded you may find the trees heat up quicker.

    What did you do with your old worktop when you replaced it?

    Free disposal, at the time recovered chipboard, OSB, MDF and composite wood worktops were incinerated whilst 'tree' timber was sent for reuse processing - i.e. to make composite wood boards. East.

    Door frame standard internal width for a 686mm door

    That's a 27 inch door. When we worked completely in Imperial measurements we would allow 1/8inch either side of the door for the door reveal, Nowadays the clearance seems to be settling on 2mm but with some relief on the lock side to prevent binding. May suggest that you visit one of the...
