An alternative, if the tiles are plain, is to use a tile transfer on the affected tiles. Linda Barker does a range. I've seen them in large B & Qs, also on ebay.

I know what you mean about the Stuart Turners. Good pumps but very noisy. Can't vouch for these but they do claim to be quiet: http://www.techflow.co.uk/qt.htm

I'm wondering when you leave them on the fresh air lock - all the time or just at night when you're worried about the condensation? The thing about trickle vents is that they do allow a continuous passage for fresh air. If you don't have trickle vents and you don't have another source of...

Well, that became pretty obvious during another post, esra, but what is she? Have you met her?

Sounds as though he's not a building expert, either. Does he wear spurs and a large hat? :)

Ditch the Nardi and get a Neff. I have a Baumatic washer-dryer in one of my flats (got it because it was the cheapest stainless steel one) and have regretted it ever since. It can't cope with liquitabs without overflowing and the noise it makes when it's drying sounds like a steam roller going...

Yes, but are they trained to be able to diagnose without doing an exam? Going back to Billyo's original post, his doctor seems to have decided what to do based on a number of questions to which Billyo gave the answer. A computer can do that far more effectively than a GP. A computer will...

Anonimous, just one final thing from me: you might want to think about how you will feel after all this covert investigation, particularly if you find nothing. Are you going to tell her what you've done? Or are you going to carry on as usual, keeping a secret you can never reveal without also...

This might give you some clues. A lot of people (including me) have given you advice but none of us really know you, your wife or the state of your marriage, so there's always going to be an element of ignorance involved. The truth is that nothing ever happens in isolation, meaning that...

When you say you have had doubts, do you mean something has happened before this text message?

Write the man's mobile number down on a piece of paper and leave it lying around, where she can see it. If she doesn't say anything, show her the number and say casually, 'Oh, someone from this number called today, asking to speak to you. Sorry, didn't catch the name but I said you'd call...

Depends what you like, really and how much you want to spend. Eg. Do you want both floors with the same covering? One hard, one soft? Do you have pets? Etc. I've just had a kitchen covered over with ply which makes a good surface for most things.

Alison, I gather that the problem with paramedics attempting intubation is that they can only do the part of the procedure that doesn't involve anaesthetic. And yet, without the anaesthetic, the patient's survival chances are very slight hence the reliance on anaesthetists. For example, a...

Can't do that, esra. You know what they do to whistleblowers.

People sometimes block up airbricks because they can't see the point of them, which might explain why some of your neighbours have fewer than you do. However, if the underside of your wooden floors become mouldy, you run the risk of dry rot so think twice before blocking up the ones that...

I agree with Joe. Any surveyor sent by the buyer will be there to report on the condition of the property, not the position of the boundaries. These are marked on the deeds. a copy of which is always held by the Land Registry. If you're that worried, you can always order a set online and see...

Perhaps it wasn't nonsense. Perhaps they're all dead lazy at his hospital. :wink: On the other hand, perhaps because of his position he knows what really goes on as opposed to what's supposed to go on.

Good one, Nige :lol: .

I would guess that part of the problem is that if it goes wrong then the person doing it (and/or the hospital) could get sued and that's a big worry for doctors and hospitals today. So, on the one hand it makes sense to leave it to the person most qualified to do it. On the other hand...

Well, you were obviously upset and trading insults isn't my style.
