SAVE OUR BAS campaign. I have every respect for any contributor willing to participate in an open forum and I have the ability to arrive at my own conclusion about their personality, knowledge and usefulness of their contribution. I have more concerns about those who would attempt to ban an...

Only out of interest, why does cable suited for non fixed use become unsuitable if it is clipped into place?

Car body filler is cheaper than the same sold as wood filler.

Fleas live only on animals. If they are fleas they will very soon move. Could you mean wood lice?

Do you mean "Can you put drains to a room that does not have an external wall?" What is the floor type? Can you go under it? Can you afford to excavate a trench in a solid floor and make good? Could you box-in a wall run drain across from the WC via the kitchen and could you afford the work and...

The options given are "Ad covers this page" or "Report this ad." Clicking on the options does not improve matters. The problem seems to resolve when all the ads on the page have displayed, but this means waiting after every page change

When you come to removing other sockets, though, they may have an incoming cable and an outgoing cable daisy chaining to another socket that you wish to keep.

The pages on the forum are jumping, jerky and slowish when loading Is this just my PC or is it a common problem? It started when the "new" forum came into use.

The master socket is the one that the outside wiring from BT leads to first. I suggest that you locate the outside cable and then follow it. There are several types of master sockets and their front plates. Perhaps Google for photos, but only the more recent ones will be readily identifiable...

Unfortunately it is not that simple. Depends on the route taken by the former owner. If the extensions are daisy chained then you will need to maintain continuity but adding hidden connectors is not a good idea. If each extension is wired back to the master then each will need disconnecting...

Mirror clips? The square U shaped ones. If too narrow, home made version?

Homophobic?

You need the system checking out. If the divertor valves are faulty (a common failing) then the boiler can receive a call for heat and come on, even though the hot water/radiator controls are set to off. As a DIY job it is an easy fix, but you do need to understand the system and the control...

Old pearl of legal wisdom-- "The man who acts as his own advocate has a fool for a client."

I can't offer an opinion about "who" will pay, but the glass unit should be replaceable at about £50 if you DIY.
