I have recently installed XP SP2 on my PC. Everything seems to run OK except for using email. I have always used hotmail previously but SP2 default email option is set to Outlook Express. The problem here is that when I open the email inbox or when I send a message I keep gettng the...

The process of my bro' becoming sh*tfaced was done in the company of his pal and confidante: Kevin. Right, Kevplumb, are you by any chance in Brighton? If so, you have quite a lot to answer for! :evil: If not, thanks very much for the advice. We'll go for it. :wink:

Excellent advice guys, thanks very much. Now there is a problem. My brother who works in building was supposed to be turning up later with the diamond core drill to make the hole. News is he got sh*tfaced watching Arsenal steal the cup yesterday and is in no condition to consider a 60 mile...

Thanks very much, TGM, that's very useful advice. Just one thing I forgot to ask, between the washing machine and the kitchen sink is our gas cooker. Can we run the wastepipe behind the cooker, albeit, secured to the floor, without providing some sort of heat shield? I don't imagine that...

Intending to instal our new washing machine soon. Both the hot and cold supplies are already plumbed in so our concern is simply to do with the waste. We want the wastepipe (from the standpipe) to have a separate outlet to the outside drain rather than share the existing connection to the...

So what would remedy the situation here, then? Replacng the washer? We wouldn't need new taps, surely? They are only 18 months old! :shock:

When we turn on our hot supply on the bathroom basin tap it runs as one would expect and then after 5 seconds or so slows to a dribble and pretty much stops. No such prob with the hot bath tap or the hot kitchen tap. I don't know whether it is relevant, but we have a Powermax 140 (unvented)...

Following an unfortunate period where somehow my e-mail account has become hi-jacked by a third party, I have had a devil of a time trying to convince my contacts that I was not the author of the (often rude) messages sent. It hasn't turned out to be quite so damaging as it possibly could have...

Question : Why are men so much more useful than vibrators? Answer : Because vibrators can't mow the lawn!

David and Julie: From what I have viewed in other fora and read in various articles this would seem to be entirely the case. This is why I made the post originally; given that there is very effectively a “cartel” in operation, will the Financial Ombudsman be best suited to act on our behalf...

David and Julie : We will try to establish all of the points that you raise at the earliest opportunity. We do have some photographs and I will try to get him to send them to me – he is not on-line, worse luck and is actually away for a few days. We do know a couple of really good bodyshops in...

What I did not explain was that following the accident my dad drove the car home. The damage prevented the tailgate from being closed, not because the tg itself seemed affected, but because the C posts were out of alignment; the rear light clusters were broken (though still working); the rear...

Thanks Eddie_M. Yes, actually I am a bit worried that the small claims judge might enquire as to why I have not sought the services of the FO and I do not suppose that he will be impressed that my reluctance was based on other derogatory fora posts. Maybe give the CA a try. Thanks...

Just found this fabulous website. Don't know if anybody can help with this particular problem but here goes. My dad's car was driven into from the rear recently and declared a write-off - the liability having been accepted by the other parties insurance. The issue is that the amount the...
