    Of course he abused pupils

    That is not true, but I can see why you want to brush thousands of terrorist acts under the carpet

    Certain members on here who are banging on about what Farage is supposed to have said 50 years ago

    "what Farage is supposed to have said" Or, what multiple witnesses who were with him for several years, report him as saying. Why is this described as "supposed to have said?" Even Farage doesn't deny it. He just tries to brush it away as harmless banter.

    Gate valves

    I used to use gate valves because, when fully open, they do not impede the flow. But you can now get full-bore ball valves which are neater and will withstand high temperatures. The ones with a T handle are simpler than the ones needing a big screwdriver. Pegler are particularly good...

    Smelly Washing Machine

    It should loop up to the height of the underside of the worktop. Fix it with a bit of string or a cable tie. A cup hook is useful. Or you can make a hole in the side of the unit facing the machine, right at the top, to feed the hose through. When the top of the hose is above the level of...
