    Hi I assume you have been able to connect to the IMAP server in the past? Have you tried reducing the number of connections? It defaults to (I think) 5. When in the email client go to Edit > Mail & Newsgroup Account Settings. Expand the email account details (little + sign) then click on Server...

    I use SeaMonkey. It's Mozilla based (like FF) so most of the FF add-ons will work with it. Much better (in my opinion) than Chrome.

    13A supply spurred off 32A socket?

    I was thinking about this and realised my gas hob is plugged into a 13a socket. Well, the gas side isn't but the igniter system is.

    Cannot get good countersink with a Pillar drill!!!!!

    I'm not sure if it'll work with wood but back in a previous life when I was a toolmaker to get a good finish on a countersunk hole in metal we would put a piece of emery cloth between the job and the drill. It stopped the 'chattering' and gave a lovely smooth countersink.

    Paint brush confusion

    Funny how you mention pink overalls. A few years ago before we got taken over by a big multi-national the company I work for had red overalls with high vis reflective stripes. After a few boil washes they always faded :oops:

    Tiles on MDF ??

    I need to tile a small patch of MDF. It'll only be three maybe four tiles. Do I need to prepare the MDF in any way first? Perhaps rough the surface up a bit to give the tile adhesive something to grab on or would I need to paint it with MDF primer first?

    Emulsion on MDF

    I've had a look at previous posts and there's been a few different answers. Basically I need to paint some MDF walls in a small holiday chalet. Some of the walls are in a toilet. I was planning on using Johnstones vinyl silk which some posts on here claim doesn't need a primer on the MDF first...
