    Vibrating pipe noise on Baxi Platinum cold supply.

    It very much sounds like it's a plumbing problem yet it's constant the only way to silence it is to switch the boiler off which instantly stops the noise.

    Discoloured hot water.

    What do you remember about the 70s?

    One thing came to my mind is that there was hardly ever any back-ground music played in shops back then and if there was it was something like the top poppers sing the hits of the day. I think it was some copyright law that stopped shops from playing copyrighted music back then. Another...

    Under my front window wasp like insects are emerging from little holes in the ground. They look like a wasp but don't appear to be agressive. Anyone know what they are?
