Probably just sand and cement at that thickness. Just use the same again to level it off. Insulated tile backerboard (jackoboard/marmox etc) is available in 6mm, 10mm, 20mm and can be used to build up the height. Are you insulating the wall? The above products can also be used on the wall itself.

Put the bricks back, but smash em up first!

Sheds, fence panels, sleepers etc. often arrive damp from the preservative. Painting or treating them immediately often results in disappointment. I'll only paint a new fence panel if it's dry on delivery, and we've had a few weeks of dry weather prior to that. Delivering a bone dry shed would...

'vehicle barrier' do people park on the other side of that fence?

I wouldn't bother hiring a tool for such a small cut. He mentioned circular saw but assume he meant angle grinder?

Going slower with a jiggy reduces wandering. The problem is that with better and more powerful tools, it actually encourages you to go faster! Yes, always turn off pendulum if you want accuracy.

Screw a leveled off 4x2 frame to the floor, and stick your IKEA/kitchen carcasses onto that. If you've got a small gap at either end due to the off-the-shelf boxes not quite filling the full space, don't forget to fix a batten to the side of the carcass, gives you something to screw/glue a...

Screw a batten to the floor as a guide, no use marking a line, the dust will obscure it. Drill and manually smash out the corners.

It's still a thing on the continent. A friend showed me a picture of a newly fitted rad in a house in Germany. Trv at the top, I was initiated confused! Not unknown for a foreign tradesman to bring in materials from their own country and install using 'their way of doing it'

Pretty fkin stupid when you've got your own people held as hostages, quite possibly inside those same tunnels.

I thought same, but if it's only just started letting water in then why hasn't it happened before? Unless this is a recent installation? Looks like a couple of weep holes a couple of courses down from the cill above. Would've expected to see them lower down really. Anyway, he's got some...

As above, Ebay/FB marketplace offcuts or second hand kitchen worktop. Nothing wrong with chipboard for a desk, maybe you could use the existing damaged one and glue/screw a sheet of 6mm MDF or ply underneath to strengthen it.

It seems that every time he has resigned in the past, it's because of a shady loan from some million or billionaire. An absolute grifter.

Insulate now while you have the opportunity.

Pictures required. A conservatory with a box gutter?

From the latest 'revelations' I see no evidence of any wrongdoing. I don't see any point in releasing them really, if they don't relate to any criminal trial then they aren't really in the public interest, it's all just gossip fodder for the media.

Can't tell a lot from a photo, have you been able to get a close up look? Likely to be a problem with the flashing, possibly a split or with pointing, it almost looks like some of it is a different colour, as if someone has had a go at fixing it in the past. Or when (if) flashing was replaced.

One opens further than the other, and is more expensive. You can use a non permanent thread locker to keep a dome nut in place. Or you can drill out the butchered hole, and glue in a piece of hardwood dowel, then screw normally into that, but I wouldn't try that without an extra side...

It's irrelevant to the Gaza situation.

Are you comparing the scale and efficacy of Hamas with the might of Nazi Germany?
