Hi - i need to drill into some ceramic tiles in the bathroom - do i need to use a ceramic drill bit? ( i seem to rememeber someone telling me you have to a few years ago...just thought i'd check!) thanks for replies :wink:

ok thanks, i did unplug most of them, but not all. i will try again lol :lol:

Thanks i will do it later and post again :D (ps already have avast home edition and run a full scan nearly every day, just to be safe, so hopefully no viruses, but you never know!)

Any ideas on the cost of replacing the heater?

Ok thanks guys you've been a great help :D

Oh ok :? In my previous place it was on a new RCD so i dont think it'd be that? So yeah i guess it looks like ive got a call to make :roll: Thanks so much, you've been very helpful :D ps are you an electrician or somebody who just knows things about electrics?

Ive got a dell inspiron 4600 and it has been playing up for some time now. the screen keeps flicking on and off, and the whole system stalls and crashes very frequently. its now got to the point where it doesnt even get to the log-on screen any more. the only way i can get into the computer is...

Not yet, but i will when the washer has finished its cycle shortly. Many thanks :D

Thanks for the reply. Doesnt sound good....i wouldnt want to be buying another dryer if it was just a wiring problem....is there any way of testing the appliance to see if it is that, or is it an electricians job, and he needs to test the earthing through the house? Sorry but i just dont know...

Ive recently moved and when i plugged in the dryer in the kitchen the RCD switch tripped. So upon advice I moved the dryer and changed the socket to one closer to the fuse box, and it works, but only on a low setting. As soon as i push the button to dry on high, the RCD blows again.
