I do agree with you that it appauls me that folk put salt on stuff before they have even tasted it. One bloke I knew put salt on bacon, usually some of the most salty stuff around! PS - I rarely but sometimes put sauce (brown only) on bacon. But I never put anything on anything before tasting...

That Sir, is a travisty! Next you will be suggesting that pineapple (a lovely fruit) is acceptable on a pizza or that curry/gravy is allowed on fish and chips. It is just "Not Cricket"

and whilst we are at it. Sauce with bacon should be brown, like HP for example, never tomato ketchup. Tomato ketchup is wonderfull on loads of things but not a bacony egg thingy!

You may have rights under Sale Of Goods Acts that outlast any manufacturrers warranties anyway. I would expect that 2.5 years in from purchase is still within that timescale, Cit Advise could advise you properly, you may have to go thru the court system such as small claims in the coulnty court...

When did the Hash Brown ever become part of the Traditional British Breakfast? Never! Never heard of it years ago. Where did it come from? USA? Well we never heard of it back in our childhoods and our parents and grandparents didni either!

Yes indeed doing it properly if you can is the best option but if not the converts is worth considering

Observing the E pulls out last is a good idea Making the lives pull out first in case of cord grip failure. Ideally Line first the N a very close second then the E as late as possible

I would advise you to rethink an electric shower, to get one with a decent heat output and the cable (and pipework) lengths regards not just costs and losses with current and water flow you could go a long way to go with a storage system rather than instantaneous. The cost of a cylinder and good...

Phillips EE kits , yes I had one xxx

I left school in1971 . Valves were still the King of electronics. OK we had tranny radios and the Sinclair Micromatic was a must have to some kids. The IC were the new kids on the block. We had a computer club after school that was with the Dep Head. All of the logic gates were with diodes or...

Well Well Well! Why are so many people so self entitled? Some people, far too many people, think they are entitled to drive at the limit as a minimum. often exceed it, on every portion of every piece of road irrespective of bends, poor visibility , poorer road holding weather conditions no...

To anybody who has mentioned Marc Bolam/T Rex songs - What the heck are "Automatic Shoes"???

Galaxy by Monty Python (Eric Idle has quite a good voice).

The ones I used to use could accomodate two conductors (my pref was two on a ring doubled over and the one for a spur single witout much actual difficulty thereby 5 conductor diameters. Before a slight re-design it was 6 total so each of the 3 could be doubled over. In both cases for a ring...

Might be an idea to ask on the plumbing/heating forum if any of the qualified lads know how or how not any permitted zones for various pipes/tube play out. As said, we know where the permitted zones are for cables and if everybody sticks to them and everbody else is aware of them then, in...

Yes Disgusting (as a combination in My Humble Opinion)
