    Oh Dear

    I'll assume, after the stabbing, that there may be a good chance he was a battered 'husband'. But that doesn't happen to men, so he probably stuck it through for quite a while. Being attacked by someone you love with a knife is no joke. He did right. Obviously if he'd whipped the kids out...

    Dimmer Stuck on Dim

    I, personally, couldn't suggest one. If you've already the chrome switch, with the dimmer held as I've described, then you can just swap the modules over. No doubt others have different fittings. Try the Click Mode range by SCOLMORE INTERNATIONAL LTD as their stuff is mostly very modular. I...

    If you have a fancy switch plate that holds the dimmer module in with a nut then Aurora also sell the module itself on its own. Fitted a few of these in the past. First link I found!!

    Pulling down over head powerlines.

    Just a quick read of the web page for that Does that mean less words and more pictures? Is there a particular reason for thinking it may have been dumbed down? Are there any colouring in pages? :wink:

    Plastic water pipes - distance from electrics?

    If you can get them 2" away while staying in the permitted areas for drilling or notching joists, then I'd just do it.

    Are my ovens installed safely?

    But then with diversity taken into account it's the first 10A plus 30% of the remaining 6A (1.8A) giving a total of 11.8A. I wouldn't have had it on a double socket either, single would be OK though. Appliances over 2KW should have their own supply.

    Guidance re Ashley J804 20amp Maintenance free JB

Usually glides in nicely. 1mm² can be a bit bendy at times and as for multi strand definitely need to insert and then clamp down on it (release button). As has been stated elsewhere take note of the stripping lengths as embossed in the lid.

    Ten reasons to hate her

    I for one am glad she's dead, it is now 02:15 a.m. on the next day and I'm still glad. Tony Blair will get his call when the time comes but that bitch surely screwed this country, unless you were a nearly rich twonk who lived in the South East you were stuffed.
