Thanks Terry - much appreciated!

Hi, I'm hoping there will be a simple fix to this problem. I looked at teh FAQs but couldn't work it out :( Pressed the flush, it flushed, but is continuing to flush and the cistern is not filling up. Water is shooting out of the black pipe on the right, but the cistern is not filling up. I...

We had a new shower put in by our Letting Agent's odd-job men, to replace the old shower that had some leaking issues to the flat downstairs. I noticed they used Dowsil 796 Neutral Silicone designed for PVC, glass and brickwork. How worried should I be? Will it get really moldy? Or leak...

The red and black cables feed into the big black tube that is shown in the last two photos. One of the fuse boxes (CUs?) is marked with my flat number and a quick experiment confirmed thta it does. Thank you for your help, I will have to get on to my landlord to get them fit proper meters...
