Impressive stuff. I suppose if it's plastic you save money lagging it? It does look like it's for younger children though.

Whatever you say. One of the features of the remain campaign was a propensity to 'play the man not the ball'. You've avoided discussion of either of the links. Point scoring and failure to deal with the issues lost you the first referendum and it'll probably lose you the next.

I'm looking for advice from someone who's done this before. No offence intended, but it sounds like that won't be you. I'm planning about 2m high structure, 4m wide, 2m deep, maybe 1m cubes. I am interested in finding cheap suppliers, whether to go for square box section tubes or the round...

No, nothing of the sort. My post was about the fines. So are you saying that the increased emissions due to VW cars in addition to the recent population influx hasn't pushed one single city over their emission target?

Sorry, didn't realise Snakes and ladders is only in certain regions. This kind of thing: https://www.cheltenhamrocks.co.uk/guides/recommended/soft-play-in-and-near-cheltenham/

I'd love to hear from anyone who's attempted to make a 'Snakes-and-Ladders' style soft play area in their house. It seems as though a lot of the parts are readily available, but when it comes to making up a frame itself there seems to be a design element and most suppliers want to do that part...

Whatever options the UK had about limiting movement I still believe they hid behind the EU and basically used that as an excuse. I think a lot of people don't really care who signed what agreement, it's the outcome that matters. So whatever (understandable) blame you want to level at the UK...

How nice you you that you can find a technicality in someone's post that allows you to rubbish the rest of it. It must be very satisfying for you. I'm sure we can all move forward together like that with a better understanding of each other's view points.

The clearer air is a good one. As I see it it went something like this: UK accepts freedom of movement. Approx 2m people come here They bring their cars too, obviously Some of them are German cars With cheat code for the emissions tests. We fail our pollution targets in many big cities. We get...

Yes.

Just got a quote for some of this Isomax stuff: https://www.soundproofingstore.co.uk/isomax-clip-system The system loses 133mm from the room, but promises to give superior sound-proofing. It was a bit more than I expected, working out at about £300 for each (metre-wide) alcove either side of a...

I found this: https://www.diy.com/departments/u-can-concrete-floor-patch-fill-5kg-tub/258255_BQ.prd There is also this: https://www.toolstation.com/shop/Construction+Materials/d210/Admixtures+%26+Mortars/sd3259/Epoxyset+105+Standard+Concrete+Repair/p46209 Or from TP...

With that much to do I wouldn't accept the advice of anyone on this forum with a finger-in-the-air estimate. Find a structural engineer. It won't cost more than a few hundreds and it may save you money overall by avoiding over-engineering.

I have to make up 8-10mm to close the gap between the bottom of the door (side hinged) and the threshold. I'm wondering what material I should be using to do this that won't break up with vehicle traffic but will allow me to make a smooth finish. Or should I be going for some kind of compound...

Yes, I discovered Ironmongery Direct last night, by coincidence. Found also: - https://www.isaaclord.co.uk/ - http://www.trade-hinges.co.uk Quite some difference in prices between trade-hinges and Ironmongery Direct, e.g. compare...

Thanks J & K, however all I got out of the thread so far is that I should use 'Euro' screws in ply. I'm unsure what hinges I need to put with them. What size slot am I looking for to determine I've got a suitable hinge that will accept these euro screws? Also, a search for 'euro screw' at...

I'm sorry if this is a frequently asked question, however I now have: 1) 18mm MDF doors with 35mm cups, approx 14mm deep 2) 18mm thick plywood carcasses to fix them to I believe the expression for where the doors goes in relation to the carcasses is 'overlay', and I want the hinges to be...

The vote was just a message. It was always down to the government in power to decide what it meant. If leave really meant leave there would be: - Hard Irish border (which seems unlikely) - Lack of reciprocal health agreement (which seems unlikely) - Lack of transition period (which seems...

Agree with this 100%. This alone, however is not a reason to not vote leave. Voting leave can be as much about expressing dissatisfaction with the way our membership has been handled as it is with divorce from the EU. The answer is simple: Cut that **** out, ensure freedom of movement is...

The word 'racist' has also been used extensively to silence criticism of Islam. If misappropriation scores some political points, it's perfectly OK, just as long as you're on the right team.
