    Added a spur, think i've made a mistake!

    Showing on what? Does everything go back to normal if you disconnect your new spur? Show us some photos of how you connected the spur to the existing socket.

    Rockdoor reviews should I be worried

    Do you know what those tolerances are? It might be OK on the dark side of the house, but when I look around at black, blue or red doors that are a few years old they all seem to have changed colour, usually in an uneven and very obvious way.

    Tile layout thoughts?

    I think that you get a better result if you move the tiles towards the front door by a half tile. I think that this will get rid of the thin strips on rows G, I and M.

    Rockdoor reviews should I be worried

    Your uPVC door was presumably white and reflected a lot of the heat away. A black door will soak up the heat which will encourage it it warp or split, it will also turn into a grey door in a few years as uv radiation affects the colour.

    For the older gentleman - hipsters.

    I have the same problem as I am too short for my weight. I found that wearing a belt provided a solution.

    Composite Door - Dropped On One Side

    As the gap on the hinge side looks even it seems probable that the frame is not square. Do you have a large square to check it? Alternatively measure the frame diagonals to see if they are equal. It appears to me that the bottom of the frame needs lifting on the hinge side to allow the frame to...

    I had to use an online binary to ascii converter and type the binary in by hand. Spoiler: It says Seasons Greetings

    GCHQ 2024 Quiz

    Agree the morse code is a seasonal message, not a place name. The binary code is in the sea. Another seasonal message. (You do need a good quality source of the picture to see it, preferably direct from the GCHQ web site rather than one of the many copies floating around the web). The animal...

    Another flow & return flow question

    The little double arrow L shaped symbol on your valve body indicates that it will work on both the flow and return end of the radiator.

    If ball valve is so great ...

    And all that broken up calcium stays in the system and blocks filters on showers and aerators on taps :(

    Yes, sometimes just increasing height a bit will allow you to see the drone against the plain background of the sky.

    I'm waiting ellal's reply with interest. The only rule that I think you broke was flying it beyond VLOS. I definitely can't see mine at 400m away, my limit is about 240m although it does depend on the background.

    Slab loft insulation question

    Agreed, and I know I said bills but I actually have a system set up to record my gas usage on an hourly basis with records going back several years. I was disappointed that topping up the loft insulation made no detectable difference to my gas usage. I expect that the first 100mm of insulation...
