Can crimps be used in a similar way to where a junction boxe would be used. eg taking a radial off a ring when there is no suitable socket outlet close enough, by using yellow crimps?

Just a question. If the the plans were submitted to BC and aprooved before 1 Jan 05 and the wiring only involved an extension or new build, presumably as long as the work was done in accordance with the 16th ed Part P would not be an issue?

Point it with lime mortar and leave the stone exposed

I'm sure a way to avoid the forign call centers would be look up an alternative 01xxx or 02xxx number on Say no to 0870. I can't be sure that this will work but my gut feeling is that you should not end up in Dehli!!!!!

Not quite right our electric fence with nothing connected can generate 8.5kV although when the fences are connected this can drop a tad due to nettles etc toughing the wire and shorting it although after a while they do die. Any way back to my point. I'm quite happy to set up a test at various...

What is the difference (obviously size!!!) between No. 0, 10 and 20 biscuits please. David

I can't see why a beam & block floor could not be used with 50mm Kingspan/Celotex (or what ever thickness BC require) and a floating chipboard floor laid on top. Follow link for description. http://www.bison.co.uk/default.aspx?id=43

Just a point, although I do agree with oilman and do use hydraulic lime I think Fredies point about cost is wrong 25kg OPC £2.35/bag 25kg NHL3.5 £9.85/bag If you want to do the job properly it's going to cost more thats why cement is so commonly used in the wrong place. I...

How about an angle grinder with a diamond blade followed by a SDS drill with a chisel bit. Plenty of dust but if replastering is on the cards if you make the cuts deep enough you can get nice square corners. About 5 mins for a box in blocks dont know about brick. Just make sure you carry the...

Anyone heard of Yngwie Malmsteen? Ok I would rate Eric Clapton, Mark Knopfler et al as great guitarists who have produced a lot of well known music but Malmsteen's technical ability is second to none. If you havn't heard him play try the link...

Has BAS seen that site he really should complain!!!

I have written a spreadsheet that can be used to estimate quantities of sand/cement etc required for render/screed. The numbers in the boxes can be changed to allow for different materials mixes etc. Let me know if I have made any errors!!(I'm sure you will) Hope it is of use David...

While we are on toilet paper here's another one. Hard or Soft? I can't imagine why people want to wipe there a**es with shiny greaseproof paper, but each to their own.

Thats the kind of unhelpful remark that makes YOU look a prat!

I am about to skim our kitchen ceiling. It's about 5m*7.5m. Where is the best place to start plastering? Along the short side Along the long side In one corner and work outwards ?????????????????

I thought it was a bit heavy handed, all he shouted was "nonsense". I guess anyone there should now be careful of cheering Blair just in case they get thrown out!!!!

Thanks. Thought I would have to push a bit of diesel through to clean it out anyway - might be some rust in it too!!

I have just spotted an oil leak form the back of the rear diff on my Landrover 90. It is above the filler hole so I suspect it is oil leaking out as it is being thrown around whilst moving or draining down when stationary. The casing sounds a bit thin when tapped. Can I weld a patch if I can...

Thanks oilman for that!!!! It didnt look quite right when I saw it and since then I have found a local advert for Atlantic Coast Kitchens - Cornwall's New Kitchen Company with exactly the same photo on it as their website. I wonder who is behind this?
