Sorry monkeyfunkster, but I have no clue what you were talking about either. Sense of humour overload on my part. Maybe others will comprehend. I will observe with interest.

Soak the beanie in cow fragrance then ease the label off with a dachshund fork.

On any corner, it will be better to have one of the surfaces right to the corner, and much less obvious if the colour strays onto the other one. Which is which depends on your eye-line and the room lighting. I can never remember which is which :oops: but it becomes obvious once you start...

There's more to it than photos - though that's probably the cause in the example you gave. Way back, something I did forced the horizontal scrolling thing. Then I edited my post, and it was OK again. Sadly, I have no idea now what exactly I had done. But it was obvious to me at the time how...

How is the second light, that stays on all the time, connected?

Don't rely on early morning keeping the crims away. A couple of weeks ago, our security man drove up to the gate at 8:30, got out to unlock it, leaving the engine running..... ....You've guessed - guy jumped in, drove away, car never seen again. So far, insurance are NOT being helpful.

Amazing how much discussion can be created from not reading the initial post :D :D My son is considering the same thing and I have put him off with "It'll make the stairwell even darker" and "You'll never get your bed down the stairs again." In his house the space above the stairs is...

Second question first - no problem putting emulsion on top of the PVA. But that's the easy bit. I don't think there is anything you can add on top that will stabilise a layer that is coming adrift. And I don't think skimming would do any good either. You will probably have to get the suspect...

I raised the point about short-term high-current on bulbs failing as a possible sensible answer to IanJ's question. Hence I said: "Now, suppose there was a dodgy connection in the rose - a wire under tension under a screw that was almost holding it. Suppose this was kind of making OK contact...

As a relatively new poster myself, there's plenty of truth in all of this. But happily there's no consistency. Sometimes the daftest of questions gets the most helpful of answers. Sometimes a missing comma brings down the wrath of the gods. I was one of the unfortunates to confess to owning...

It's easily done. The one I analysed came from a minister. Another hoax was circulated around a large number of government departments and NHS organisations by someone "quite senior". Because IT security is part of my job I have seen a lot of the history of these things, so I get immediately...

Doesn't happen to me.

Aha. It is all clear to me now. Thanks to all of you. PJ

See here: http://us.mcafee.com/virusInfo/default.asp?id=description&virus_k=99320 One reputable source says this is a hoax. PJ And it has been around a LONG time: http://www.snopes.com/computer/virus/mobile.htm Worth checking these before you pass them on, especially by e-mail. What a...

KW: Do you have a switch somewhere else that controls the immersion heater? We have one in the airing cupboard, one in the kitchen. If you have, there would be two wires to the airing cupboard switch. even if on a dedicated circuit.

Ah b***** And I thought I had cracked it last night :evil: :evil: It's my first go at Photobucket. I have just gone in and ticked the "make public" box so it might work now. PJ

Nothing you can do will make a REALLY strong join. Contiboard and strong don't really belong in the same sentence (unless there's a "not" in it). But you can do a pretty good job with long screws, carefully drilled pilot holes so's the screws don't split the board, and glue. My poor-man's...

As no-one has volunteered to fund this year's holiday, I have managed to find a picture of an Italian copper downpipe. What is much more amazing, I have managed to stick it into photobucket. And stand back in awe, it is not here any more - see latest post. I can't believe I just did...

I will say this only once. :D Yep - know about the diversity sums. Still doesn't make sense. Still there are two divergent views on this forum. And about my cooker...... Maybe your Sunday lunch is simpler than mine. But when I have all the tribe coming it would be common, at around...

This diversity business still has me puzzled. I had a quick search and didn't find anything that sorted it all out for me. I've seen the bit about the calculation for a cooker. But I know that in my kitchen on a Sunday it would be common for four rings to be glowing full-on with both ovens...
