Don't think this is making us look very 3072. i'm going to get a 12648430

Some new lights come with connector blocks that just aren't suited to loop wiring - Its a fairly common problem. If your old light is still in place then I would be tempted to purchase a new connector block and then replicate the existing connections using that. Your existing fitting may...

That's the right amount of wires, but you need to identify which wire is which. One of the black/red pairs will run from the two reds, down to the switch, and then back up to the rose. The returning wire is what is known as the switched live, and you need to connect between this and the...

There are 10 types of people in this world. Those that understand binary and those that don't. :D P.S. Is it 57006 ?

I suppose it would be cool at a geek-club....... :wink:

Yay ! A good, old-fashioned happy ending, and the fact it involves old enemies working together is even better......

Just a few additional thoughts on censorship..... There was a program on one of the music channels last night about breast enlargement, where everything breasty was pixellated out. This is fair enough normally, but made the programme fairly meaningless, and they would have been far better...

I always thought you could get Guts from KFC, but if you wanted balls as well then you had to go McDonalds.. SecureSpark - The band 10cc (and The Loving Spoonful, come to that) are named after the average amount of...erm.....man juice expended in the typical...oh, you know what I'm on about...

A quick note, just to hopefully save someone, somewhere the hour of head-scratching that I had tonight....... I purchased an RJ11 to RJ11 extension cable, ran it to the computer modem and then back to the BT master socket. First of all I tested it out using my RJ11 to BT adaptor, then I cut...

F**king expensive too !! Thanks for your help, anyway.....

Crop circles always interested me - Just 'cos some old gits from Wiltshire show that they can make a crop circle, doesn't mean they did. Haven't got an explanation, I just thought there might be a bit more too them.

I dunno, but its really bothering me. The website states quite clearly.... "Did you know 95% of all Britain's Blackcurrants make it into Ribena" Surely that's unpossible !! :?: :?:

Soemthing about the Labour government has obviously made me suspicious of Statistics these days, but there was an advert on for Ribena last night, which said that 95% of British Blackcurrants end up going into Ribena. Not Blackcurrant juice in general, but specifically Ribena. That can't...

Surely Michael Jackson must have some legal recourse - The fact that a court, of which these people formed the jury, found him not guilty must give him some ammunition to sue the arses off these people if they suggest otherwise. Its a bad thing if being found not-guilty in court isn't even...

I'm going to add onto Merv's post. Let's say my question is 'I want to replace my old bay window with a UPVC version of the same - How much is it going to cost ?' If I can get a feel that its about £100, or about £1000, or about £10000 without having some f**ker from Safestyle sat in my...

I have now written 'Asteroid' on the house calendar, which means I may get an hour of respect from my family (for being knowledgable) before the nuclear winter descends upon us. I read in a book once, but it seems a good rule, that you should only worry about things that you can have any...

Bah ! BradleyBear's take on it is exactly what I was hoping to do. Ho Hum...... It is covered by the British Gas 3-Star cover and they came and carried out the annual safety check on Monday (which is when the question of extending the flue came up). So if the fumes smell, is that...

Wouldn't bother - Don't think they'll give a XXXX

In Powergen's defence....... Even if their customer service has not been particularly good, everything they have told you is true. And Scottish Power - even if their customer service has seemed good, everything they have told you is a lie. And guess which one now has you as a customer.....

Actually, something happened with Derek the other day that really annoyed me. Big Brother had asked the housemates to guess which Horse he was thinking of, and revealed to us, the viewer, that he was thinking of the Lone Ranger's horse, Silver. Anthony and Makosi went in and failed to...
