Thanks. Looks like that product is out of stock at B&Q. Thanks. I did initially but will have another ponder. Re screwdriver - been there, done that. Dodgy back now, so need to avoid being down on hands and knees. I managed to get rid of prominent ones with my useless strimmer. It’s mainly...

Hi Our patio needs weed removal and some more mortar for the joints. The first step is removal of soil and weed from gaps. I initially bought one of those weed slicers, but I can now see they’re for weeds in a bed. (Angled head) Any ideas? Ideally needs to go down a few inches. Thanks

Morning This is my first stab at growing spuds. (Late ones) I know the conventional wisdom is When the plants are 8-12 inches tall they should be hilled to keep tubers covered and prevent greening. Mound the soil to a height of 3 to 6 inches and approximately 12 to 15 inches from the base of...

Can see what you've done now. Best regards

Meant can you explain that step of your process. Thanks

Many thanks for the acknowledgement that this is a mother and father/auntie and uncle to fit. Re your process re “swapping the two white plastic pieces and nuts around”. Length of cable- at the moment I just have the three WAGO boxes in ceiling (not the one with the three live connections)...

Hi 1. Couldn’t see any room for cable to drop down and be fed to the block at the end of the fitting. No room at side/top/underneath mounting plate, when fitting is secured to it. 2. Nothing in the block, just a plastic label with L/N/E in the channel of the lamp.

Thanks. I knew about the need for WAGO enclosure. Not sure if enough room. If I’m going to be running a T&E to connect the three WAGO blocks to the connector block, does that negate the need for a junction box? No room for bigger connector block in this scenario.

Thanks First response-I can easily connect wires from 1.5mm T&E at the WAGO end, but how would I navigate cable through the small hole in the mounting plate. Sorry for being obtuse. Second response-noted. Third response-they do indeed. Thanks. Fourth response-just enough wriggle room...

Hi Hope everyone keeping well. Bought this lamp for our kitchen but bit perplexed by design and instructions. (I know that’s entirely down to me) https://www.argos.co.uk/product/3366260 Context is using WAGO boxes due to lack of cable in ceiling. 1. The connector block for the three lamps...

Thanks

Hi All Dealing with aftermath of bathroom leak above our kitchen. Leak sorted so waiting for everything to dry out etc. Water tracked through light fitting. Aside from that we got away with just a cracks in ceiling and some staining, no bowing or collapse of plasterboard. Just bought basic...

Thanks v much. In this instance I should have submitted 37, instead of 37.293. My fault, but BG app was still expecting five digits. God knows how it will affect our bill?

Evening All Had the above fitted to replace a corroded one in May. Am I right in thinking the new ones record usage/therms differently to old ones. We used 57 units between Feb and March and then 0000000s from May to today, coinciding with Mediterranean weather. I think I may have...

Thanks. The only info I could find on cutting back was if you do it in the spring, cut back to 10cm above ground etc. You’re not advocating I do that now, are you?

Thanks. It could do with a good prune as v big, blocking light to lounge etc.

Hi We’ve had this monster bush for 25 years. I missed the boat (again) in not cutting back in the spring, so wondered if I just leave it until next year to do this. Also seems to have a few nice flowers but more deadheads. Am I right in thinking I don’t need to separately deal with these? So...

Hi again Pretty sure the STJW was there first. Think I would have noticed and commented on the tall stem earlier. (The bushes there when we moved on 25 years ago) Thanks

Hi again. Seems the spirea has lots of “dead heads”. Would now be good time deal with that? (Another bloom before end of summer?) Thanks

On closer inspection, leaves v similar shape to those of lilac. However mine have a serrated edge, which is more suggestive of alder or hazel? Attached images are front of back of our leaves. Thanks
