Probably a bit late but if you use anything other than Vax cleaning solution it will void your guarantee! Having said that you can't use anything that foams (ie fairy liquid) - hence I guess washing powder being good -that's low foaming. (Know this cos my daughter split bubble bath on the...

Some areas will fit loft insulation for free...for anyone... Might be worth a call to the Energy Saving trust to ask for advice... I could have had Cavity Wall done for free in house I bought (I'm just a home owner - not old or on benefits etc) ...but it had already been done (surveyor...

That's very interesting ....that's my other alternative to get a base unit from elsewhere ... I know Ikea don't leave gaps behind units at all and their corner units fit snug into corners ...(I planned the Ikea kitchen where I live now -which I love and has survived really well over last...

Sorry if being dense - Did you mean I should go for it - and if it starts buckling cut out a threshold? If I'm right - and you can do that - what a good idea! (except now I have to dither about which design will be suitable for the whole area...) BTW didn't think about repairs but have...

Sorry just realised that was the old plan - door between kitchen & dining room has been opened up again since then -just edited (using album draw on tool -which worked surprisingly well) (except just realised though it seems to have squashed the image - never mind you get the idea.... :D )

I've had B&Q laminate (quick loc) in living room for 10+ - maybe even 12 years ... not a problem (except where there was a radiator leak -behind a chair thankfully -gone a bit gappy) It has not been kindly treated (v. messy children, recently have been steam cleaning it :shock: and I don't...

If you use the same laminate flooring room to room do you need to have joins in the doorways? Layout attached to give an idea of floor surface area I am talking about Thinking I might do kitchen, dinning room and living room in same flooring - might even do the hall way as well...

Planning my (smallish) U shaped kitchen - (not decided whether to go to ikea/howdens/wickes yet but will be fitted by a joiner ) I have the soil stack & water feeds running up one corner of the kitchen wall (boxed in 22cm by 35cm -but can be changed a bit) If I allow for this in base units...

This is the one I have - 'borrowed' pic from Halfords web site (hope that isn't naughty?)

Peter 1919 - they are well thought of in the cycling community - thought to be safer than the ones with straps (haven't heard any stories of people losing them -but have about ones with straps but then these are still less common...) ...also it is easier to load/unload (especially for dropped...

You use the screw to tighten this clamp to the tow bar ball - you need to tighten by hand whilst holding the rack horizontal and then finish it off with a spanner to the recommended torque (looked up - is 90Nm). This is the only thing holding it to the car (no wheels!) - it sticks out 3ft ish...

If I can't get it up to torque I will have to fit a bar on to get a bit more leverage...but torque wrench is 1.5 ft long - so hopefully won't be a problem!

Thank YOU!!! :D :D :D :D :D Crow's foot adapter is the name I was looking for !!!! Can find hundreds of them now ...and all cheaper than the one I could see!!!! Jackrae I will look up the right torque before I use it ... Currently using a slightly better (more comfortable)...

I will have to go and look at them (no depth online I can see!) ... I was looking at DIY stores - but possible car places would be better... Also just found a torque handle with different spanner heads on e-bay - but not the size I need ... :( (and it looks flimsy) and one other place a...

I have a cycle rack that clamps onto the tow bar -it says it should be at a certain torque (90 - I think...need to double check). It comes with a cheap flat spanner -but I'm worried I'm not tightening it enough. My dad has just given me a torque wrench... The 'nut' for the cycle rack has a...
