So that's how they sidestep the fraud / advertising-claims questions; they suggest that it's impossible to disprove what they, personally and subjectively, think about the "improvement" in sound quality.

This is the same guy that thinks electrical cable is directional; http://www.russandrews.com/article-Truth-or-Myth-Cable-Directionality-russdirectionality.htm Amazing what some people will buy :roll:

Indeed! Every forum should have that. I was on another forum last night where someone resurrected a "For Sale" thread from 2006 asking if he could pick the item up at the weekend! As per the tapatalk discussion, however, I get the feeling there isn't a lot of active development going on in...

And the joke where a redneck accidentally wounds his buddy with a rifle. Calls 911 and says "I think I killed my friend!!" 911 operator responds "OK - calm down - first thing, can you make sure he's definitely dead?" pause... BANG! "Yep - he's definitely dead now!" :mrgreen...

You could start an argument in a monastery, b-a-s :roll:

Indeed, and the "problem" isn't limited to forum owners, even Google is suffering from the move to mobile / smaller screen surfing; http://www.forbes.com/sites/roberthof/2013/01/22/googles-mobile-ad-problem-starts-to-ease-but-slo-o-owly/ Organisations that rely on web advertising /...

Don't you think that the constant repetition of these points suggest that perhaps there might be a problem with your delivery? Your counter-argument to people pulling you up for the way you word your responses is basically that everyone else is wrong and you are the only one who is correct -...

I've been insulted by someone who can't spell "to". I'll get over it - good luck with your sheds, fridges and log burners. Where's the smiley for ...yawn...?

I don't understand this. The fridges will only be used as needed - but you're going to be leaving them permanently plugged in and live, right? So the question about using them in an outhouse, where the temperature will drop, is still valid. And there is a log burner? But, with the best will...

That's not going to work because the OP has no commercial relationship with the electrician. If he wanted to go this route then his only recourse is to sue the builder. Which takes us back to the OP...

It's impossible to tell from the pic on ebay, and I had the same difficulty trying to peer at the pic on screwfix's site. It's much clearer on B&Q's site, though; http://www.diy.com/departments/marbo-5a-4-terminal-white-junction-box/189648_BQ.prd That clearly shows that it supports 2, 3...

They're not the prettiest, but I guess that doesn't matter if you're going to put pictures in front of them. From a safety perspective these should do as long as it is possible to blank off all of the entries apart from the single entry where the lighting cable goes in. Most of these covers...

I said you were incompetent in the other thread. I also said that you simply refuse to pay attention to any advice that is contrary to your pre-conceived ideas or plans. I still believe both of these assertions so can I be banned from this thread too, please? In terms if being...

That's interesting. So we have a 17th ed. CU in the house and last year the electrician ran SWA from the house CU to a small CU in the garage. The garage's CU has a spare way so do you think that still counts as a "new circuit" if I add an MCB and a new radial (probably a 16A socket, if...

Just goes to show that when you look at a seemingly neat and tidy install, as in the first picture, there is no way of knowing what horrific bodge might be behind (or, literally, above in this case) it. (the flex was an obvious clue, though!)

Yes indeed - apologies for suggesting otherwise. You've explained the situation far better than I could and what I poorly conveyed was that if even you are stepping back from the pragmatic approach then the original thread is pretty much a lost cause. Best regards

Can't remember the last time that I saw JohnW2 lose his patience with a poster, but I whole-heartedly agree with everyone's frustrations with this OP. On the subject of the mods, has anyone been pressing the "Alert" button? I'm just wondering how much, since mod11's half-assed and pretty...

I'm from the 1960s, too, and hadn't considered myself "very old" until now :shock:
