    Lucy Connolly to be freed

    Actually its all people of colour that can be called that and its mainly about being a traitor to your cultural roots rather than trying somehow to appease white people, who generally need no appeasement in the first place. Gammon refers to the colour of the face when a person normally white...

    Council's Mad Decision?

    Dangerous electric usage?

    Personally that looks like a telecoms cable not a power cable could just be for an alarm or cctv if its a refurb, lots of pricey materials left on site...£11 a bag for plaster, just as expensive as board..

    Some brain teaser for the scientific-minded

    As I pointed out if you want a less simplistic answer do some research, covalent bonding is not the only factor at play in a water column... think of bubbles and you might get there... its all about boundary conditions and it is not a chemistry question, that's just how molecules bond its about...

    Some brain teaser for the scientific-minded

    Not really there is no "film" its just the bonds of hydrogen are stiff and these are evenly distributed through the water column, at its boundary there is no other free hydrogen to link with so the surface links with each other and the rest of the mass of hydrogen in the water hence we get...

    Wooden Wall Light....no earth

    Welcome to the world of standards and conformity, if a foreign standard is as good as ours what makes it any more inherently dangerous or safer than ours - absolutely nothing... if the manufacturer says its good to go, it is. and to close the loop what makes that wooden light fitting...

    Wooden Wall Light....no earth

    None just the same way our certificates of conformity rpovide little in the way of reassurance, you do understand that we got rid of type testing some 17 years ago and now rely on manufactures to ensure that their products conform so the only issue is one of trust and unless we start wholesale...

    You seemed to have missed Brexit... when we copied all those foreign standards directly onto our statute book wholesale in an afternoon.... and we carry on doing so , so we can trade with the rest of the world... there is no such thing as a British standard in reality its just a made up thing to...

    Wooden Wall Light....no earth

    We already do have have done for just over 170 years... what on earth do you think happens when you are extradited for a crime in a different nation ? We are dealing with products not a legal system, products can be tested, legality is a matter of opinion. And don't twist my words I said...

    Induction hob trips RCD

    yep easily the issue, new hobs chuck out a fair bit of leakage, and current testing is all on the will fail at one times mA but of course it can fail much earlier at lower mA and still pass the 1x test.

    Wooden Wall Light....no earth

    You have to wonder how all those retro standard and desk lamps are sold in the UK that predate the double square. By the way any relevant marks do not need to be on the product itself but can be on the packaging if the original standard which meets conformity in the country of origin is on...

    Digging out front garden for a driveway - without house collapse?

    You will not be retaining muck in the way of soil just a 45 degree line from the bottom of the wall. given our summer you will find that a clay soil will suffer no or little slip.

    3 months of consecutive growth

    How are all those reform councils getting on... have they waved the magic wand yet or just employing management consultants at a historic rate to cover up their ineptitude? How has reform got on with a migration policy , not seen one nor has anybody else for that matter but reform has been...
