Thanks All :D I think the 'Safest' thing for the cat, would be to put it in the back door, as that goes directly to Garden, front door and glazed units go to the street (although we live in a quiet close). I will contact some companies and see how much. Thanks Again Steve

Hi, There is the possibility that my father in law might be living with us for a while in the near future; he has a 17 Year old cat that is still very lively and likes to go outside. We live in a new build house (just over 2 years old), the back door is UVPC Double gazed top and bottom section...

Thanks Andy :D I'll give that a try Steve

Thanks for that :D Yes, the P Trap does have water in it. The main sink doesn't have an overflow, but the 1/2 sink does, but we don't use that much. I did take the P trap off and clean the pipes, there was a bit of 'Sludge' in them. The smell could be the washing machine, that has...

Hi, Our house is 2 years old and there is a smell in the kitchen, not sure where it is comming form, but possibly the sink, we have a dishwasher that has it's own waste pipe, the sink had a P Trap, will it make any diffference if I replace this with a bottle trap? Thanks Steve

Hi Guys, Just to say, I bought some 'Lord Sheraton Caretaker Wood Balsam' I think from ASDA, i was a little concerned as it says 'With pure beeswax,Pine Turpentine & Linseed oil' The 'Pine Turpentine' was a bit concerning, but it's done the job, so thanks for everyone's help. Steve

It should arrive in about a week, so will let you know. Thanks Steve

Thanks for that, and the 'Save' on the Lighter Fuel. Should I use a clear furniture wax? Steve

Hi, We have just bought a Dinning room table and chairs, the table has some 'Sticky' marks on it where I guess the price was, we got a discount! But how to I remove the 'Sticky' marks without damaging the table? I think it's made out of Sheesham wood (Indian Rosewood). Thanks Steve

Thanks for that :D I did try last night with my old detector, if I set it so that it din't quite make a noise, it never did,if I set it so it was making a noise, the tone did change slightly, so that is where I suspect there might be a Stud. Will give it a go and see. Steve

Hi, I have one of those devices that you can use to locate Studs for attaching to, Pipes, cables etc, It was great in my old house (built @1950), but I now have a new buil (2009) and I think that there might be some reflective foil on the back of the plaster board, boucing back to signal...

Thanks for that! I did have another thought about supporting the shelves. If I get some more conti board, I could put this between the 2 x 27", so, 27", then cont board then the other 27", I can the put battern along back wall and on sides,just not sure what size, any thoughts? Steve

Hi, Let me start by saying that I'm not that great with cutting straight. I have some Conti Board left over from puting some shelves in the wardrobe,so I wanted to use them to put in a storage cupboard. So the bits that I have left are 20" deep & 27" long, what I want to do is to cut them...

Thanks for that. Maybe I will go for a Floresent tube and a 'Walk about light', like I used to have. Steve

Thanks guys, in my old house I had wired in alight that I could walk about with, that worked OK, but I think some properly fitted lights would be better, I did drop the walk about light a few times, and although it was enclosed, it still blew the bulb, so you couldn't see. Still a bit torn...

Hi, I guess my question has been asked a few times, I did a search and didn't see any recent posts, so here goes. I want to have some lighting in the loft, it's just used for storage, nothing else, OK I will probably need to get a electrician to do it (Part P thing I guess), although I could...

Thanks agian Guys, will probably be a while off before I can tell you how they are going to do it, we have a Conservatory salesman comming around this weekend, but he is unlikely to know. Steve

Thanks for that,will talk to them about it and see what they say. Steve

Thanks for all the replies guys :D Think I will go for the Robi, my last B&Q Performance last me 3 - 4 years and that isn't bad, will probably get the same from the robi. Steve

Wow, thanks for that :D Looks good, £29.99 with 2 batteries and according to the 1 review:- "Good Drill / Driver for DIY, but probably a bit under powered for the professional. No Hammer action so you will need a second hammer drill for brick work etc. The built in light is a great feature...
