    Best HD source/provider for my new HD ready LCD TV

    I just bought a Panasonic HD ready LCD TV & would like to get HD. We're currently on Virgin Media who offer an HD box for £99 but very limited HD channels available. Looked into Sky but a bit pricey + don't want to change provider as we have PC, Phone & TV. I've been told about a Freesat box...

    1999 Citroen Xantia Key fob/blip problems

    The small rubber key fob buttons that lock & unlock my Citroen Xantia are starting to have no effect unless i really dig my finger nail into the button. I wondered if this was a problem with the battery or the rubber buttons perishing. Is there an easy way of opening the casing up so I can have...

    Roof tiles too short. rain dripping down back of gutter

    Myself & a mate fitted the gutters. The old wooden ones were supported by metal spikes/brackets which we removed before screwing the PVC fascia board to the wall, followed by the guttering. Those Eaves trays look like they'd cure the problem. I just need to find the best way to fit them...

    Roof tiles too short. rain dripping down back of gutter

    A friend & I installed them so ignorance played a part here. I guess that's why we used the Damp Course membrane, but there's nowhere to attach that. Should I just be able to push up my 1st course of tiles without removing any nails :?:

    Roof tiles too short. rain dripping down back of gutter

    Hi I'm a newbie here. This site looks great. My problem is that I had some new PVC Guttering & PVC Fascia board fitted about three years ago. In places, the roof tiles barely reach over the guttering. We did fit a strip of damp proof to help direct the water, but this has long since blown...
