    Can I snip these wires and embed in the wall?

    I'm wondering what the wall construction is? If it's plasterboard, you might find that you can pull the cable out if you first remove the plaster around each end of it.

    Outdoor taps in winter, how do you protect yours?

    I really like these - really easy to use, do a good job.

    Interior wall insulation

    One thought - if the built in cupboards are on external walls, they will provide an ideal environment for damp and mould (unless you insulate the wall behind them)

    Roof repairs from inside?

    So maybe if you look at the diagram, and identify which ingredients of the dogs dinner you want to replace, then it might be possible to tell you if you can feed it from the inside...

    Soak-away on neighbours property - easements?

    If it's recently emptied and brimming so quickly, I wonder where it's all come from?

    Whats App

    My WhatsApp number is the same as my decades old pre smartphone Nokia number. So you might be able to set it up with one of those, assuming you have one? Or maybe borrow a smartphone, put in your mobile SIM, setup WhatsApp, then put everything back

    Smart meter home display question

    As far as I know, OctopusWatch gets it's data from Octopus, rather than directly from your meter, so if you splash out the couple of quid or so it costs, you can easily check every couple of days if Octopus are getting readings from your meter. I find it a really useful app myself.
