Numpty. I agree whole heartedly with most of what you say, but: Although white asbestos and talc both contain Mg6Si4O10(OH)8. Asbestos also contains a complex structure of SiO2 and MG(OH)2. The actual structure is a bit like microscopic swiss rolls. This leads to the fibrous nature of the...

Hello bluff_ugi and welcome. Now I'd hazzard a guess that before you changed the tap, you drained down the hot water, until no more flowed. You've probably now got an air lock in the system. The easiest way to clear it would be to use mains pressure. If you connect a hose between the hot...

If your experience of school life left you with such a poor impression, you have my sympathy. I suppose I should feel privileged to have gone to a school where we were able to develop as individuals without such peer oppression. Obviously I only have experience of my own school so perhaps it...

You could be right about the asbestos. Doubt anyone is going to suggest you drill into it. Could you perhaps build a shelving unit to stand in place. Alternatively perhaps sticking some 18mm Marine ply to it with gripfill would give you someting to screw some shelf brackets to. You could...

I totally agree with the principal of letting someone go, as long as they want to. A few years ago, during discussions with the sister of the ward, where my mother was a patient, I spotted on her notes "DO NOT RESUSCITATE". I was absolutely outraged. Although my mother was suffering...

Easiest to install is a strap on boss. You make a hole in the side of the pipe, then the strap on boss is placed against it and held on, with clip(s) that go around the existing soil pipe. An integrated rubber seal sits between the existing pipe and a flanged area on the new fitting. Here's...

But I take it you don't feel compelled to come home and listen to vagner for a couple of hours. I used to follow F1 quite keenly, until it all got a bit boring. I simply stopped watching. Seemed quite obvious to me. :?

Sorry if the missunderstanding upsets you. I have a couple of friends called Matt. Very nice chaps. I have often been called Tex for short, it's never offended me. (BTW Tex is short for Texas) No you must be an extremely well educated, well adjusted individual. Anyone that spends their...

Are you sure you have a cavity? If it's a 100 year old property, it's quite possibly solid wall construction.

I had my jaw wired back together, (after having it smashed into 7 separate pieces by the front of an articulated lorry 26 years ago). Upon a recent unrelated xray, they discovered that a few loops of wire had been left behind. This finally explained why my exit sometimes sets off instore...

Sounds like one of those new fangled machines. Haven't you heard of Dry Cleaning :lol:

A common method is to put a layer of carpet down on top of the floor. For extra insulation you can put underlay beneath it.

What would you do with all that empty spase in Liverpool. :?

:oops: Got the sun shining through the window, bouncing of my shirt onto the screen. It really does dazzle. I must stop posting during daylight. It's not normally a problem, because most of the pictures I look at on the internet, I view at night time :wink: :oops:

Usually the time/date stamp you see in your browser, is the time/date that the user submitted the message to the mail system. RFC2822 specifies that this should be the moment the user makes the decision to send. Hence your senders mail browser should insert this field into the message header...

Since no-one knew he was a ******** (whatever one of them is) when they shot him. That message was addressed to all of us, including you!

But you only need to turn cam nuts about 90°. Why on earth did you use a drill :shock: I'm not helping much am I :lol:

Look like soil pipes to me. Do you live in a block of flats? If so, the chances are that the upstairs neighbours toilets are connected to those. If you have a flat roof, one of them may be leading the rain water away. If I'm right, then it probably isn't practical to move them. Just box...

And christians don't commit adultery do we. In fact, we don't even covet our neighbours wife, even if she's really fit. :wink: :lol: I wouldn't know about that, I'm a good boy :lol:

That'll work. It's about the only permanent solution.
