    A Revolution

    I didn't stumble across it, it came out of my head. It doesn't sound like anything, I wrote it. Quite clearly I understand the questions, it's answers/enlightenment/dialogue I'm seeking. I feel no need to impress anyone. I didn't get the title wrong, it's hyphenated, a conjunction...

    A Revolution

    I have often wondered whether "England" has missed out in terms of radical social evolution by virtue of never having "experienced" a "commoner" inspired revolution. I have also often wondered whether this is indicative proof of a rare and naturally tolerant, well balanced society not prone...

    Fixing wall units

    Personally, I use 100mm x 5.0 screws with brown rawlplugs - 7mm drill. This should ensure you get a good 60mm fix in the block (15mm board + skim - 25mm cavity = 50mm solid fix), but be careful, some "breeze blocks" have hollow centres 30mm from the face, and can be a real pain to achieve a...

    Flood defences

    Beat me to it Mr Secure - had to read it twice to believe my eyes! Jog on Mr Material - and don't darken this forum again until you know that whiskey is only to be mixed with a glass. :twisted: Heathen! :wink: PS Mr Secure - don't want to appear picky - real whiskey has an 'e' in it...

    cutting a worktop around a angle wall

    Polycarb sheeting is a useful tool, quite rigid but easy enough to cut with a stanley knife. We use them for templating granite worktops.

    The truth about 'Road Pricing'...

    Stulz. I was taught at an early age - "never explain and never apologise" I'm not so disingenuous as to believe that advice as to be "gospel truth", but it does have a substance beyond the rhetoric. You have put yourself "in the line of fire" for a sense of duty, I do not profess to...

    Quote for Tiling

    My tiler always says "I'm not getting on my knees for less than £30/metre". If he is good for the going rate (and I don't doubt that personally), I would add £20/metre for supply and fit of ply, 10% for slate (it's only the cuts the affect the price), another 10% contingency and £50 bonus if...

    Now that's a turn up! I had you down for a plebeian Softus, turns out you have an aristocratic bent - or have I been sucked in by a particularly sardonic Softus post - you mischevious f****r. :lol:

    Lottery Win

    Besides women, my first/only love. Gullwing doors, angular but sleek bodyform, air intakes like gorilla buckets, rear boots to rip roads up - :oops: sorry, back again now, I just love it. Ferrari launched the homologation series GTO to compete, but it looked like a Sierra in comparison...
