Resilient bars fixed to timber frame. Pack with acoustic insulation. Double sound block plasterboard fixed to the resilient bars. Don't let the plasterboard touch wall or ceiling or side wall so leave gap and fill with acoustic mastic. Skim walls. Unfortunately sound will come through...

They don't let you know if there is a problem. Maybe it was rejected so ended up in bin. We chase up after a few days as you can't sit back and wait. Normally a GP will sign off in 24h.

Yeah. Follow the NHS app but we have to phone and leave a message with the prescription team at the doctor's. Can't contact them directly unfortunately. Monday morning phone the prescription team at doctors

Sounds like air in system.

With durable emulsions or certain paints you need a primer or the resins in the emulsion can play up. The quality paints are not the same as a standard matt. I never had a problem with F&B although sometimes I used the cheaper acrylic primer undercoat tinted to match the F&B top coat. Always...

Stop using a brush.. Use Uni-Pro High Tech Micro-Fibre 6.5" 4mm Nap and buy the yellow matching handles. Even better if you remove door and lay down as no runs.. You can fix legs on ends and flip door and paint door both sides straight away. You probably aren't getting the paint on thick...

Feed and weed in the spring. Fertilizer following guide once a month or whatever it says. Cut it long so you don't get moss. Water 3 times a day in dry periods. I think the watering is the big problem as most don't bother in summer.
