Hi all, I've got an area about 4 metres square at the side of the house but separate from it. It's got gravel on it with a membrane under that. Three and a half sides are bounded by fences and gravel boards, the last bit just has a couple of inches deep concrete lip at the same level more or...

nauseous, good idea I'll try that next time if there is a next time! - Terry. SFK ah, I wonder if that's accessible from in front through the panels inside the freezer? Maybe one for next time. _ Terry.

jj4091, JohnD, thank you for your assistance. This issue can be regarded as fixed now (I hope), we'll see if it happens again and repeat the defrost. Regards from Terry.

Chaps, freezer thermometer thingy is currently showing -20. Min / max over last few hours = -16.5 / -20. Freezer temp on panel is set to -18. No horrible noise.

Hi JohnD, that's a good idea, we'll see in a while if / how fast there is ice build-up in future. This drip tray, wonder if we've got one and if so where? It wouldn't be easy to get the FF out of its cab - at least it wasn't too easy getting it in. It was too heavy for us just to lift into the...

jj4091, yeah we found plenty of ice, all concealed behind those panels. Removed some chunks of ice we were able to get at, had to let the appliance stand overnight until no more water came out , so presumably all ice now gone. Re-started and fingers crossed it's now on it's way down to -18 with...

jj4091, guys, Right, we've taken the top panel off and there's a fan behind there : took fan off its spindle and the area is half full of ice ! Photos are tipped on their side, top should be to the left. Once we get the ice out of there we'll take a view. There would be a case for...

Hi jj4091, the manual says : " 5.4 Defrosting of the freezer The freezer compartment of this model, on the other hand, is a "no frost" type. This means that there is no buildup of frost when it is in operation, neither on the internal walls nor on the foods. " That doesn't seem to be quite...

Hi jj4091, yes we can't go free-standing, we-re stuck with integrated. As far as I recall it's not supposed to require defrosting so I don't think it specified how often to defrost it. (Supposedly "frost-free"?) We'll try to use all the contents then defrost it anyway. Whether we could keep all...

Ah looks as if Australian law is stronger on this than our law in the UK. Well, there's a surprise ... not. - Terry.

jj4091, others out there, Sorry please disregard my wittering about sale of goods quote - that's from Australian law. Just noticed. Blooming internet! :-( - Terry.

Ah thanks jj4091. Now the festivities are finished we'll run the contents down and give it the once-over as you suggest! Yeah, as regards "merchantable quality" I thought I might be in with a chance because of this from the sale of goods act 1923 (my italics and underlining):- '(3) Without...

Hi all and a happy new year to everyone. AEG integrated fridge freezer, it's in a cab I bought for the purpose from B&Q, although the rest of that part of the kitchen was put together by us. I'm pretty sure the clearances etc are fine for ventilation. 1. Not long after we got it, there was a...

Thank you for your reply, I'll give it a go. I want a thermometer which would say keep the max / min for e.g. last 24 hours or whatever, not one where you have to set the max / min to cause an alarm. In fact I don't want an alarm really. I don't want it getting me out of my bed at 3 a.m. cos of...

Hi chaps, my fridge / freezer doesn't seem to be keeping to the right temperatures. I'm looking to buy one or possibly two (one for the fridge, one for the freezer) temperature thermometers to check on it. I don't see any point in thermometers which just show the temperature "now" - I need...

Hi chaps, scbk, how much is larch in you example pls, and is it treated? Ta. Regards Terry

Hi all, I'm not crazy about / a bit fed up with exterior treated timber. OK you can stain it, but painting it, as in painting it some other colour, seems to be a problem. The paint doesn't seem to last long before it needs re-doing. Recently I replaced a bit of bamboo screening round my oil tank...

Doggit, sorry about delay, festive season and all! I'll have a look. Season's greetings from Terry.

Thanks for your replies guys. Doggit, yes I always assume everything is a scam until I think otherwise. I googled the two blokes' organisations and looks kosher. I've only been here 3 1/2 years so can't grab it! bobasd, foot soldier : yes - photos. Stephenoak yes caution. Ian h : my first...

Hi chaps, I just got a visit from an agent /surveyor and a bloke from a trust to let me know that the owner of a piece of land next door has died and left the land to the trust. This is an area about the size of where you might put a reasonable house and reasonable garden. It is undeveloped i.e...
