    Legalising cannabis

    Yes, I was going to make the point about ciggies but you got there first!

    Legalising cannabis

    We won't know until it's tried. The legal outlets would have to be competitive. If it's sold at a loss it could still be a benefit if criminality is reduced

    Legalising cannabis

    What has? Apart from government saying they disapprove of drug taking, which everybody knows anyway. Something stronger might help, like the anti-speeding and DUI ads we used to be treated to. I'd agree with most of that, cannabis is already largely decriminalised if not legal. Maybe extend...

    Any recommendations for internet security

    What sort of problems? I used F-secure for a few years. Originally it came free with Virgin, but then Virgin started charging £25 py. I wondered why I was paying when there's built in protection nowadays, so I cancelled it. To be on the safe side I installed the free version of AVG. While I was...

    Have you tried T-cut?

    Testing testing

    I do, a bit of history. One of the mikes (I'm told there are 2) on my phone, Galaxy A12 stopped working. I could hear incoming calls but they couldn't hear me, but if I shouted loud into Google it sometimes worked. Got it repaired by a local guy, £35 but cheaper than a new phone. Also when I did...

    Legalising cannabis

    Do you think we can believe what people say about drug use, pensioners or otherwise? What's your solution?

    Magnetic filter position?

    Boiler installation manuals, if they include a piping layout, usually but not always, show cold feed up and under. The thing about not taking the vent from across the top of a tee is my own idea, but I believe it reduces the tendency to overpump.

    Magnetic filter position?

    Did you mean the boiler flow pipe? I wouldn't pipe the open vent like that, across the top of a tee, as it gives a head start to water into the vent, encouraging overpumping. Better to take the vent from the top of a horizontal run. I would do it like the attached sketch, the cold feed up and...

    Legalising cannabis

    Why exclude pensioners? Do a lot of them take drugs? I didn't suggest locking anybody up, but a campaign to remind users they're fuelling a societal problem wouldn't go amiss.

    Makerfield

    On the subject of Wes saying the UK should rejoin the EU - whatever one's opinion, the argument by the anti-EU lobby that by rejoining we'd lose comtrol of our borders is a joke. Like we've had secure borders these last 10 years?

    Magnetic filter position?

    I meant where does it, and the open vent, connect to the circuit. But if the system works OK probably not worth worrying about pumping downwards. If there are, the some rads will get warm when HW only called. The terminal box is fitted so the lead is into the bottom when pumping upwards...

    Unite The Kingdom

    How you associate not wanting to be swamped by immigrants, and the country being islamified, with hating the UK is quite beyond me.

    Unite The Kingdom

    So what should be done - wait till things are really bad, and perhaps irreversible, before doing something about it?

    People need to be prosecuted for this.

    It's plausible, they get plenty of other freebies. Have you got any evidence that it's false?
