    Buying a used kitchen

    Unless you have a nice square/rectangular room, I would recommend buying a much larger used kitchen than you actually need so that you can play around with the configurations and get everything to fit. Like kitchen Tetris

    D’oh. I guess you’ll have to live with a wonky room.

    Liverpool Ramming

    Maybe, but reports say the guy was from Liverpool…I would assume therefore that he would know that road and that it leads to the waterfront. Also all the people heading towards him might be a sign there was a big crowd of people in the area ahead.

    Liverpool Ramming

    The whole city centre was closed to traffic from yesterday morning. However, being the city centre there are dozens of car parks (public and residential) and loads of on street parking. If you'd parked your car in the city on Sunday night onwards, you would have been inside the closed/blocked...

    New Extension Straight Wall Query

    So the question is how much (as a percentage of the total cost) is the final payment? Obviously don’t pay it until you’ve had sone kind of resolution

    Have you paid the builder everything that they are owed?

    It's 2k Clear Coat, which is supposed to add superior gloss and scratch protection. You have to activate the spray can by fiddling with the base of the can - I guess it releases a hardener inside - then you shake for a couple of mins and then get spraying.

    Thanks. I guess time will tell on how it holds up. It has a 2k lacquer over it, which hopefully will help!

    What have you been doing today?

    Yeah mostly sorted. Rattle can spray job on the wing so don’t look too closely. New wing, new alloy, 2 new tyres and new control arm. Also did new pads and discs, as I knew as I knew I was tracking it, rather than any immediate need. The radar sensor for the cruise control also needs...

    False ceiling advice needed !

    The more you can add the better supported the ceiling would be. I imagine a couple of rows of battens - so at 1.5m and 3m on the 4.5m length - will be enough providing they are securely fixed, and the ones around the perimeter are fixed securely too.

    False ceiling advice needed !

    With those spans 3x2 isn't going to cut it without some central supports. A concrete ceiling shouldn't be too hard to drill with a suitable SDS drill and masonry drill bit. Look up concrete screws -fixing a couple of timbers at suitable spacing to the concrete and then dropping supports to...

    Surgical wiring SWA through screed

    I’m not sure I follow what/why you’re core drilling under the door mat. Won’t that compromise your DPM? If you’ve got access either side from the outside with some clearance, and an SDS drill, can’t you just drill through with something like this? https://amzn.eu/d/29ghFgC Will take a while...

    You guys should consider fostering dogs if you’re not sure about a full time commitment at the moment. Quite often the people that foster end up keeping the animal anyway, but it is a valuable resource for the animal shelters to have people that can take an animal for a few weeks or months.
