Hi Wonder if anyone can help. I went to mow the lawn today and I saw several holes all over the lawn. They are about 3-4inches wide. I am baffled how they got here. Any ideas please let me know. Cheers!

Wow! thanks guys for swift response, I suppose you've got time on your hands with this lockdown! Very useful advise, I think I'm put off by wall mounting so it will be on a stand. I have been told that modern big screens are fine in small homes due to higher resolution so watching from shorter...

I thinking of purchasing 65in TV, not sure if such a large screen will be suitable for wall mounting. Can anyone let me know pros and cons of this. I'm thinking it will be awkward to connect things after wall mounting due to restricted access? Should I just put it on a stand? Appreciate any...

Hi I am about to build a similar size shed as yours, you can forget about using 2x2s, think you should use 4x2 for main wall frames. Why not have flat roof its only a small shed. I am also considering plastic sheds at moment but not sure how solid they are long term.

Thanks for that, will it be ok to screw down the shed onto the slabs? They will be relative loose on a bed of sand?

Hi I’m thinking of installing a 8ft by 6ft shed in the garden, I have one jumbo bag of sand and lots of old bricks lying around, can I use these bricks as a base and compact with sand, do I have to break the bricks down first or use them whole? Then put a membrane and 4inch layer of concrete, or...

You may be right they were general builders doing everything under supervision of the contractor.

Yes it’s a 5kw oven and the secondary unit is a oven/microwave, both connected to this supply, looking back when the fuse blew I did have both ovens operating at same time, maybe this caused some overload. All good now.

No, I’ve been using cooker for a few months now without any problems, and yes was actually routed through the 13amp fused socket because I tested it and also confirmed it was the fatter cooker cable coming into it. I’m ****ed off with those electricians who did this in first place.

The reason it blew is because it shouldn’t be connected to a 13 amp fused spur, the cooker is rated at 40 amps so I have now replaced it with a proper cooker switch as it’s protected by the mcb.

Right guys I have finally got to the bottom of this, there are no loose connections anywhere, so I opened up the cooker connector box and behind it I could see that the wire seemed to be coming through the plaster horizontally and going toward the adjacent unit where I have another microwave/2nd...

I jet wash my engine all the time, just be sensible put plastic bag over alternator and exposed electrical connections. I keep engine running while washing it, dries quicker.

Fantastic, I’ll check this on Saturday and let you know how I get on, cheers

What about neutral and Earth? I forgot to mention

Oh by the way when you say also test the connection between live and earth, and live and neutral what readings am I supposed to get with the mcb switched on or off, is it the same as checking the voltage across live and neutral, I know silly question but I don’t want fireworks let me know please...
