The appliance will draw the same amount of current here or in europe. The supply will try to deliver as many amps as the appliance demands, it will not limit the current to 13A...the appliance could try and draw 100A from the supply and the supply would give it 100A...until the fuse blew...

People over-eat for many reasons, but basically what me mean is that they eat more calories than they expend in exercise. We don't say an olympian overeats, even though they might be on 6000 calories plus a day, because they burn off those calories with exercise. Many people over-eat as a...

I remember it was played on a brass instrument, pretty sure it's a trombone or tuba, the covent garden tune has similarities but is not quite the same...I'm thinking the original was in a childrens tv program maybe...or something like a carry on film/comedy.

I finished the practise level then went and did something interesting :P

My sister who has two kids of 18 and 16 says that if she had known how poor she was going to be having children she wouldn't have bothered. I had the snip myself because I don't want kids, not on this world anyway, too much violence and I remember the agonies of my own childhood. But, and...

I heard on the news that his sauces enterprise gave all the money it generated (after paying wages I assume) to charity...his daughter Nell is poised to take over that company. They said he acted like a man who had had his ego surgically removed. You don't know what you've got 'til it's...

Having rented in the past quite a bit I know that most short term (6 month) renting arrangements state that the tenant "has the right to quiet enjoyment of the property" and it sounds like you are not getting that. Where in the UK are you willcocks, I would love to come round and connect a...

My mitre saw has several set angles which it locks to, trouble is when it is set at 45 degrees it isn't as accurate as I would have hoped :? I have set the 0 degrees by using an accurate square ( tested at work for squareness ) and by moving the fence a tad it cuts true, but the 45 degree...

I would say in both cases (2) is more dangerous i.e. there is more chance that you are going to kill someone. I suppose you are leading us to then ask why does (1) carry a higher penalty than (2) in both cases. I suppose it is down the the perceived recklessness involved i.e. the...

If I wanted to watch millionares doing something it would probably be porn...not knocking a ball into a hole :wink: or kicking on into a net.

"Everything 50p"!? I'll have a complete house rewire thanks :P

As a child I stuck a fork onto the element of an electric fire, blew a piece off one of the tines ^^

This explains it all, much safer in here with us lot :wink:

Strange how the instruments sound just like conventional orchestra :roll:

No wheel trims, have to knock the £300 off for that.

This got me a few times...wondering where my glasses were...sudden hand to face motion omg they are falling off!..then remembering I had just switched to contact lenses.

...and your sons...well you never know. Do you wanna be in his gang? :shock:

So this country invites your tourism and the money that comes from it but isn't prepared to look after you if you have the misfortune to become ill? [edit] I for one assume that hospital staff want to help everyone no matter where they come from and if they get alot of English visitors then...

If you had used a firearm recently then you would expect many hundreds if not thousands of explosive residue particles to be on your clothing but to find just one probably means he didn't fire the gun and it just got blown there on the wind.

The term 'Beggars Belief' springs to mind. Are you sure you are in the UK and not in the wild wild west? yeeeehaaaaw! I would get shot of this 'electrician' asap and find another. I agree with the call to CAB and maybe even have a word with your LABC to see if they would be interested...
