    Preparing for turfing

    The last lawn I did I ran a series of pegs along each side and using a long spirit level set screws into the sides at the correct height. (Waited for it to get dark and checked the levels across on the last two pegs as a sanity check with a laser level) Tied string between the screws so there...

    No more 'windrush' scandals...

    If Labour achieve power at the next election we'll probably have Diane Abbott as Home Secretary. Everything should be splendid then because she will sort out all the problems and not cock up anything at all. Personally, I'm still struggling to understand why they didn't scan these cards into a...

    Will PostMix Set Under Water ?

    Since the instructions for postcrete say to half fill the hole with water before pouring it in from the bag I'd say you were probably safe to use that.

    Game recording device, recommendations please!

    As far as I am aware you can connect the Xbox to the PC to get it to record it. Windows 10 also has a built in game recorder I believe. I think this is one of the situtations where you may be better off doing a quick google and having a look at the results (there are 183,000 results for...

    Game recording device, recommendations please!

    If his PC has a reasonably recent Nvidia graphics card you can download ' Nvidia Shadowplay'. That should do most of what you require and it is free. I've not used it myself though I just know it said about it when I installed the software for my card...

    Cutting these edges?

    In my experience the strimmer will be more gentle on the grass and will wear the line much less quickly against the wall if you don't use full throttle. It is surprising how slowly you can spin the strimmer whilst still being able to cut the grass effectively. You do need to spin it fast enough...

    Be careful who you offend

    Actually I believe it is worse than that. You can report it if you think someone else was offended. From here: http://report-it.org.uk/what_is_hate_crime (the official reporting website) "What crimes can I report? All hate crimes and incidents should be reported, whether you have been a...

    £500 Tool To Make Your Own Copper Pipe Tees!

    Looks like 'a solution in search of a problem' to me. . . . .. but then again, by my calculations you only have to use it about 800 times and it will start paying for itself and after that you'll be quids in.

    Theresa May supports Labour Policy

    Or indeed for their manifesto pledge in 2001 to not introduce top up fees, which they obviously forgot about in 2003 when they introduced them.

    Can you identify this plant?

    I have this plant in a client's garden and don't know what it is. If you can tell me what it is I would also like to know the best time of year to move it. As you can see it has been planted in the very corner of the bed and blocks the path and I'd like to move it back into the centre of the bed...

    low mileage car is it too good to be true

    They are comfortable, and yours may have all been reliable, but mine certainly wasn't. I had a 2001 2.0l Laguna estate for a few years. It was not particularly old at the time. The end came when the ECU went stupid and starting trying to put 20 times the required fuel into the cylinders. I went...

    You probably had a lucky escape then in that case.
