Go for a Miele, it will last a lot longer than the standard makes, in the long-term the extra cost is worth it. Not the stylist of machines in the looks department though! The Which report always rates them as the best for build quality and reliability.

I was wondering if anyone could please recommend a manufacturers make of Danish Oil that would give the best results on interior Oak furniture. Or would Tong Oil be better, if so which make would be the best please? Thank you for your help.

Thanks guys for all your help on this matter.

I have tried to find a setting on the DVD player but no joy. I have just ordered an S-Video to S-Video lead to connect the TV via the side (nasty) to the DVD player.

Thanks Tockworth and Ninjacat most helpful indeed. Looks like the cables will be going in and out when we watch a DVD from now on! Shame the Bravia doesn't support this method of connection, but then I guess the manufacturers will always encourage you to buy new equipment by not back dating old...

The TV does have a seperate S-Video input connection, however, it's at the side of the TV. I could get a cable for both S-Video sockets, but the cable would stick out the side of the TV! Hopefully there is another way?

Tried the other scart on the TV - no joy - still B&W. No instructions on enabling scart sockets to accept S-Video, the only way I can get a colour picture playing DVDs is to use the red, white and yellow leads into the side of the TV without the scart to S-Video leads - the wires look a right...

Good spot should be TV! The DVD has no scarts. Would the smartlink scart on the TV be a special conection compared with the other one on the TV? I'll try using the standard scart socket on the TV tonight.

Thanks Tockworth for your reply. The Pioneer DVD XV-DV303 doesn't have any scart sockets and the Sony Bravia TV KDL 26S2010U only has two scart (one of which is a smartlink). I have the smartlink scart from the TV connected to the S Video on the DVD player. Should I use the other scart socket...

Dear All, Not sure if this is a DIY question, however I did try doing it myself to avial! We have a new Sony Bravia TV (Model TV KDL 26S2010U), which is connected to my existing Pioneer DVD player (Model XV-DV303). However, when I play a DVD the picture on the TV is black and white. The...

Thanks guys, I was given this drill sometime ago so I have no instructions or where it was purchased.

Dear All, I have a Hippo SDS Drill which no longer holds the attachments, the mechanism has broken. Please could someone tell how I can contact Hippo, do they have a website address? I'm really after an exploded diagram! Many thanks, Steve

I agree with you! Cloud 9 purchases on the internet tend to be very good value - this is why I purchased Cloud 9. What would be the best type of underlay, is the Duo felt and rubber ones any good? What would you recommend instead?

Good advice Woody cheers!

I've used Cloud 9 Cumulus for our complete house recently accept on the stairs. I'm very happy with the 11mm but I thought it might go flat on the stairs so I went for a Duralay rubber underlay.

Thanks guys for this great help. I'll keep you posted on the outcome.

Thanks Richard C for you detailed response. I knew BC would be involved but though we could get away without full PP!

Dear All, We are planning to replace an existing flat roof over the garage with a pitched roof inline with the existing roof with two velux windows. We have a chalet style house the garage is joined to the house and measures 7m x 2.8m. The space within the new pitched roof over the garage...
