I suppose it could be although electronic compoents usually fail with heat. My boiler failed twice during the two very very very brief hot spells we had this year. I asked my son in law to have a look, yes he is gr incase the usual crowd come in mob handed, but he couldn't find anything out of...

I had one of the first 7 seater Joggers which only had the 0.9 cc petrol engine. Nice car bags of room especially with the two third row seats taken out but woefully underpowered. I considered it to be actually dangerous when pulling out into heavy traffic as it would just die on me. The newer...

The flush valve is held open by the pressure of the water flowing through and the valve drops back down as the water pressure decreases.

I always bin the plastic rubbish that comes with those bolts. I use an M10 (I think) nut and a washer.

All of ours become bin bags although we haven't had many in the last few months. Maybe the charity shops have stopped delivering them to our area because we are a load of old curmudgeonly so in so's here. We do take stuff to the charity shops of which there are numerous ones in our town but...

Oh well the parochial american male wins again. They were never going to allow a woman to control america especially a woman such as Kamala. To be fair neither biden nor harris did the republicans any favours. Trump did not make america great at any time during his last tenure and I cannot see...

All "democratic" governments around the world should be interfering in US politics. Whoever governs america affects and influences the whole world. An awful lot of the retoric coming from the orange idiot's gob is inflamitory towards a lot of governments including our own bad as that is. Of...

It's american. 50% of them don't care about ****ty things they will vote for trump.

Having lived in Germany for a number of years a while back I reckon their milk is ****e. Ours is way way better especially that that comes from Jersey cows.

Lots of "average persons" on this forum.

Exactly what I do. There are lots of ways around the idiocy.

Judging by the looks of that hole whoever installed that toilet couldn't be bothered to do a tidy job. I don't think that collar would cover all of that hole but it would, I suppose, make a very untidy job a bit neater.

I have a couple of Salamander pumps installed in my house due to low water pressure. Both of mine, one feeding the bathroom and one feeding the kitchen hot water (bungalow with hot water tank in the airing cupboard)". I mine don't kick in immediatly although they did when they were new three...

You can get chrome ones if you prefer.

F**K to them telling me what I can eat or can't eat and whether I have to have a jab for a complete scam. I'll eat what I want when I want and if I think it needs more salt or more anything for that matter I will lash it on regardless. I'm 74 and I have to die of something. We come in to the...

Personally, and I'm no gasman, I wouldn't allow any gas leak to remain. I suppose a difference in the readings of the fancy gadget (a manometer I think it's called) they use to test the gas pressure could be labelled as acceptable by someone who knows but I would be very concerned. The last time...

Go to ch 100. Click the various program providers at the top. Choose your particular program and click it (That's OK on your remote). Sign in and watch. I have found that some advertised programs on the home screen are not actually there when you log in to that provider.

Limited knowledge on log burners although I owned and maintained three of them on various narrowboats that I have owned. It looks to me as if the flue pipe is the wrong diameter for that fire and someone has tried to bodge it by filling the gap with cement and that is coming apart. There are two...

It may have a brake that is preventing it being turned although I've never had a circular saw with a blade brake. I would spray liberal quantities of WD 40 into it and let it sit for a couple or three days and see what happens. The rusty blade can be removed and cleaned up with emery cloth or a...

The top bit but be careful. If the valve is jammed you could break the spindle off and that could cause all sorts of wet havoc.
