So does Windows Defender. I only use Defender now, got fed up paying silly prices for the paid for, so called, virus killers and the freebies weren't apparently, any good so I just stick with Windows Defender which if you do the research these days to all intents and purposes is pretty damn good.

Done mine and the wife's. We have two kids now grown up. Our biggest asset, our house, we already signed over to them. Only down side to that is that I cannot take advantage of the meagre equity release that companies offer. Yeah yeah I know all about the dangers of signing over property to...

Don't get me wrong I hate the orange prat but he got part of what he wanted. He has galvanised Europe and we at least will be spending more on defence. It still isn't anywhere near enough but it is a start. I know there are a lot of apologists on this forum for trump and putin but russia does...

It can be repaired IF you have some carpet left over from when it was originally laid or you can get hold of a bit of carpet that is the same. Bear in mind though that carpets will fade or change colour slightly over time so even if an offcut of the original carpet is used it may not be the same...

Avoid anything with a wet belt or a 7mm camshaft chain. That will seriously limit your choices.

If you haven't got the tools to tinker with the pipes then you definetly cannot go bigger. The only alternative is go smaller and use extenders. I have done most of my rads using extenders and they don't look too bad. One or two I extended the pipe work but my pipes ran along the skirtings so...

Well all you knowledgeable people seem to think this is a monumental task to get these things to work. The two that I bought from B&Q just worked. I didn't have to remove anything or rewire anything I just plugged them in and they worked.

Some LED tubes need their own starters to work. Having said that I bought two direct replacement LED tubes from B&Q and they just plugged straight in and worked with no other modifications. If the old flouresecent tube was not working it could be the ballast and as far as I can see the ballast...

Tell them to take a running if your relative doesn't want a meter. they are not compulsory yet although I would think the bunch of nutters that govern these things will make this meter lark compulsory sooner rather than later.

I've always thought of life insurance as a bit of a scam. you pay all your life or at least for most of it. At some point they stop insuring you and you get nothing or you peg it and someone else gets the dosh. I've never had it and wont have it. Like all insurance companies they are only out to...

"Not level to allow fuel spills to run off" that's the biggest load of cobblers I have heard in a long time. It's not level because the builder was a prat same as mine. My floor differs by 6 inches from one end to the other ( I don't do centimeters). My garage is integral to my house but I'm...

As said most thermostatic valves are bi directional. if your rads are heating up then don't worry about it. I cannot see any problems.

I would also have a chat with your neighbour if you are on speaking terms.

So basically you have two choices. Lower the price or tell the buyer and their solicitors to take a running.

When mine did that I ended up drilling it out. Biggest drill bit I had, number 10 I think, drilled right through it and the cam fell out. Mine wasn't a new lock though.

Scammer just wanting to make money for the company. I'm no gas engineer but even I could buy a grommet to fit that hole.

If it doesn't go in like that it's time for a new kettle, they are cheap enough.

When I did mine a couple of years ago I bought one that fitted between the joists. All that framing for the old hatch I took off as the new hatch ladder had it's own frame. I had to cut away the rest of the ceiling plasterboard as the new hatch was longer than the old one. I put noggins width...

Yeah well that's in ozz so that doesn't surprise me in the slightest. So what you suggest is that you wash your hands then that ****ty water fills your bog until the next flush. Bloody stupid idea.

Well if the pin is stuck and wont budge even with gentle taps with a hammer then you will have to change the TRV.
