    Is it possible?

    The reason posters do this is so you watch it without knowing exactly what it is :) If they partially explained what the link is, you may not want to watch it.

    Pump Noise

    If you can place rubber under the feet, and dependent on the weight of the pumps it may need to be quite a firm rubber, then it generally works fine :)

    QUINN radiators?

    Quinn are fine, as are Stelrad too. Its mainly in the 'aftercare' that issues may arise, and thats for any radiator. As long as the system is looked after, serviced and the system cleaned through and treated yearly, there will be few problems :)

    Thing is, if the 12 year warranty covers failure under normal usage, and all welding, etc. then that's all you need I reckon :)

    AIRFEL rads anygood ?

    They are Turkish made, in an automated factory, thats about all I can find. I've either used Barlo or Stelrad so can't help you on that front :)

    Pump Noise

    Insulate the feet / base of the pumps from the surface they are mounted on would be my method :)

    Young Drivers.

    Interesting one, this. My son passed his test around two years ago, and was fortunate enough to be able to drive his mothers car, a lease car from her time as a home care worker. The insurance was an extra £36, so it was a good situation all round, as far as he was concerned anyway. Six months...

    These types of conditions keep my partner employed. She works in a local residential nursing home, with clients who have this, and various other illnesses/ailments, whatever you may wish to label them.

    Mira Excel B 2003 onwards cartridge spindle broken

    The temperature adjustment on these is opaque white, not black. The black spindle switches the water flow on or off. At least it is on the ones I change on a regular basis. http://www.showerdoc.com/mixer-showers/mira/MIRA-PARENT-41-Mira-Excel-B---post-2003?ss=mira-excel-b See which part...

    Best music video...

    Of its generation, Sledgehammer by Peter Gabriel was quite a good one, a couple of Eminem videos were entertaining, Say a Prayer by Duran Duran was good too :)

    What's the toughest sport in the world?

    Rugby and boxing. A professional career in either is pretty short, probably more so in boxing. Most boxers quit in what would be considered their prime too :)

    One pipe system, dont even know where to start

    With a one-pipe system, balancing the radiators is more critical than a two pipe system, so you may need to either get someone in to do this, or have a fiddle yourself if you are confident enough. Also, one-pipe systems have a tendency to collect a fair bit more sludge in them, if they haven't...

    I "fink" therefore i am.

    Thing is, Red, it occurs frequently on this site. Children are fine to correct, adults should know better so I think it's condescending to tell them their spelling, punctuation, etc. is wrong, or to mock them. I just try to make sure that what I write is grammatically correct ! :D
