When I was in the pub I heard a couple of plonkas saying that they wouldn't feel safe on an aircraft if they knew the pilot was a woman. What a pair of sexists. I mean, it's not as if she'd have to reverse the thing!

The water collecting in the bottom will activate a float switch that causes the program to stop. From your description, you have found the cause of the leak. The "moulded plastic" on the left should be cleaned out if you can. I believe that you could probably buy a replacement on-line if you...

Welcome to the site. Can you be more specific with what your problem is. Model of dishwasher, exactly what has gone wrong where in the washing cycle it happens. A few photos also can help.

They raised the age for buying ciggies to 18, so a 17 year old shouldn't legally be able to but fags.

In my experience you only had to drop/breath on/look at them the wrong way and they were unreadable, much like the rugged "CD" that we were given to expect. :-)

Personally for me (or more specifically my wife) it was about the start up time for the CFLs. She didn't like the time that it took for the CFL to get up to brightness, so we moved to LED. At the time (technology may have moved on) I also felt that the size and shape of the LED was more...

Replacement plugs can be purchased from any DIY store and probably many supermarkets as well. The following youtube video gives a good tutorial for wiring a plug including good tips to ensure that it is done correctly and avoid any simple mistakes. I would encourage you to give it a go and if...

Last new car I had was in 2004 which arrived with 9 miles on it.

I got sent one of these as a freebie with an order. Works great in my kids room. 0.5W.

I would suggest that the use of the phrase "competent person" by the company that you do work for is confusing because it is is most commonly used in conjunction with part P. Disconnecting and reconnecting an appliance from an Fused switched spur is not notifiable work so would not come under...

Assuming that the "man-cave" is on the same phase as your house, using something like the tp-link powerline range of devices would probably be the simplest way.

As that's quite a large room, from a single ceiling fitting, in old money, I would have thought perhaps a fitting with 3 x 60W bulbs. Incandescent 60W bulbs are about 800 Lumens. I love LED bulbs, much better than CFL in my opinion. I would suggest this as a suitable LED bulb (Depending on what...

My bill has roughly doubled even though it says that I am using less water than average for our typical household.

That will be the "useful length so I'll hang on to it" timber stock :D We all have some.

I've been there and it's a flippin' bother. I suspect a p***ed off door to door salesperson in my instance. Took almost a year to completely sort it out. Hope you have better luck.

The "Free" channels look to be various streaming channels, including plenty of Porn. To build an XBMC (Or Kodi as it is being renamed) media centre is quite easy on a PI. The trickiest thing is to put the licence keys for playing mpeg2 into it to allow you to watch DVDs. Bear in mind that you...

I do find that many AV software companies tend to go in waves of being Ok then being rubbish especially regarding how much system resources they use. I have found BitDefender to be good at the moment, scores well on tests.

The TP Link powerline equipment works well.

Unless specified I wouldn't tin or ferrule crimp wires for a spring clamp as it limits the surface area that the clamp is acting upon as the wire cannot deform. Try one with un-tinned wire

If you are using Windows 7, movie maker is not included in the install as it was with previous versions. It is part of "Windows Essentials" Google that and download the installer from Microsoft. It will give you a choice of several programs to install, just select the one you want.
