I bought a small-ish, purpose-made triangular section of plastic from B&Q many years ago which was designed to block the gap left between wall and...
Is there any reason why you want Freesat over Freeview ? IMO, Freesat is only worth having over Freeview if a conventional TV aerial is not an...
There's a crusher run/MOT calculator here : http://www.pavingexpert.com/calcall.htm Was pretty much spot on for my recent driveway extension...
Audio from the Freeview HD channels is noticeably quieter than their SD equivalents on both my Panasonic plasma and my Humax PVR. I think it's a...
:shock: Do you mean 10m in circumference ?!
That's an LCD TV, not a plasma like the S20 you first linked to. If it's a plasma you want, the 2011 replacement for the S20 was the S30 which...
You can pick up a lot of the free channels with a Sky box and no subscription, but there are some that you can't unless you have an active card -...

I wouldn't leave such a large gap, personally. Bridging the DPC in this way shouldn't cause any problems and, like you say, it'll just look odd if...
Those logs are not substantial enough to hold back that amount of soil IMO - my daughter's school has logs holding back a similar amount of earth...
