    broken wardrobe

    I had a better look at http://www.sdslondon.co.uk/207/wardrobe_fittings/ It seems that with wichever end support brackets i choose, I will inevitably need to re-drill a hole on the wall. The other thing is, if I choose the oval rail, their oval socket and their oval rail don't seem to fit each...

    electric fan heater switching off

    thanks for the suggestions. I don't think there are hair in the fan heater. Just a lot of dusts. I've tried vacuuming it again, as any physical intervention is not possible without the screwdriver. The fan also didn't seem to slow down prior to switching off. I guess the next step is...

    electric fan heater switching off

    i've tried using the vacuum cleaner (strong dyson!), and it used to provide maybe 2 weeks relieve. But the last time i tried, it didn't do much anymore...

    smelly laundry in tumble dryer

    oh dear dear... I left my out-of-the-washing-machine bed sheets in my tumble dryer, but forgot to switch it on. That was one night. Now it's very very smelly. I am taking the bedsheets out and rewashing them. But what should I do with my tumble dryer?

    loose toilet seat

    BarryFig, ah, I appreciate your response, and sorry for this late acknowledgement. I think I might have trouble establishing enough rapport with a plumber to have him give me the bolt and washer. hehe... if! i can find a plumber on the road side first. In my previous post, I said I'm...

    loose toilet seat

    hey youth, funny how you should suggest that, cuz that's exactly what I did. Well, half of what I did. I bought a pack of hex nuts and screwed it on. It did half the job. The seat doesn't stick properly onto the toilet bowl. It feels slippery. I think the black bit or yellow bit (in my...

    loose toilet seat

    Thanks BarryFig. ah...indeed, the price on that website is expensive... It's half of what I bought my toilet seat for. At this rate, I might be better off buying a new toilet seat altogether...change of colour would be good... What about B&Q? I can't seem to be able to come up with a...
