I asked a woman if she could move her car a few feet as she was across 3 parking bays. Came back an hour later, 3 doors on my car had been keyed. I don't really care. If you live down here you get used to car damage

Put the radiators in a well insulated floor. Can call it underfloor heating.

How sad that someone had written about it. I put it in the same bin as 'washing machine engineers'. It is just (expletive deleted)ing car cleaning, the kind of thing you get a Boy Scout to do for a bob.

Hope you got it in writing. There is a reason we say 'Welshing on a deal' Taffy was a Welshman, Taffy was a thief; Taffy came to my house and stole a leg of beef; I went to Taffy's house and Taffy was in bed; I upped with the jerry pot and hit him on the head. Taffy was a Welshman, Taffy was a thief; Taffy came to my house and stole a piece of beef; I went to Taffy's house, Taffy wasn't in; I jumped upon his Sunday hat and poked it with a pin. Taffy was a Welshman, Taffy was a sham; Taffy came to my house and stole a piece of lamb; I went to Taffy's house, Taffy was away, I stuffed his socks with sawdust and filled his shoes with clay. Taffy was a Welshman, Taffy was a cheat, Taffy came to my house, and stole a piece of meat; I went to Taffy's house, Taffy was not there, I hung his coat and trousers to roast before a fire.

No idea what that is. W have a deep mine shafts.

May be best to say what the problem is. Is it design?

Down here and I am sure it is the same in many places, there is a 3rd model. Completely neglected prooerties, rented out but absent landlords, for desperate tenants. Usually the criminal classes.

Or just use table lamps.

Careful, it is more complicated than that. The air does not really 'hold' the water. It is the kinetic energy, of all the molecules in the completely fluid mixture that does work on each and every other molecule including the water molecules. Juggling would be a better term than hold, but then that assumes that gravity is the dominant force.

Depends on altitude as well. RH is a strange thing that cannot be easily calculated, so approximations are used. Worth making a simple temperature, relative humidity and air pressure logger. They can tell you so much. Only cost a few quid as well.

As luck would have it, this week's Book of the Week, Slime: A Natural History, is being read out on R4. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0010wy3 Maybe burning is not such a great idea unless done properly. There is an Energy From Waste incinerator near St. Awful. Not far from you.

I was painting a ceiling on an A Frame ladder. The clip that holds the horizontal part of the A failed. The fall was not far, trouble was, my left arm was under the ladder, and my right foot was trapped between two rungs. Luckily there were other on site that disentangled me. Only a fractured left arm and broken ribs. Carried on the next day. After throwing that ladder away and buying a decent one. https://www.wickes.co.uk/Werner-Aluminium-12-in-1-Multi-Purpose-Ladder-with-Platform/p/250167 Only paid £40 for mine.

To me, Solum is a single type of soil, which may, or may not be in layers with other soil types. So may be missing something here. But basically, once the spores are in your building, and they will be, they will find a niche and multiply.

Most of my life I have lived in either centrally heated, or air conditioned houses. The one that made me ill was the 'fisherman's cottage' I had in Weymouth. No heating that one. There is a myth that bleach, which is a powerful oxidant, kills mould. It does, to a certain extent, but it does not change the conditions that mould likes to grow in.

When did washing the car get bigged up to 'detailing'?

Do I Remember remember, the 5th of November

You can install the complete PV system and just use the two isolators to disconnect the AC and the DC sides. It is what they are there for. I think you can get locks for them as well. Always disconnect the AC side first. Don't isolate on the DC side as that can cause arcing in the switch. Ask our old electrician about this, dopey pillock.

Burn it and stop the spores causing asthma.

I am all for having a sauna again. Bollocks to the carbon footprint and running costs.

You can get meters that look like MCBs and have an output if you want to log the usage. But can't remember what they were actually called. They were pretty cheap.

Renovating and extending 1970s house with warm air heating
SteamyTea replied to Gooman's topic in Introduce Yourself
I was working on 0.0875 m3.s-1. So should be no problem there. Makes life even easier. Stick a 2 kW fan heater in and see what it does. (it is always possible that I have made an error somewhere, so worth double checking) -

Start measuring or we will be like heating 'engineers', just guessing and voicing uneducated opinion. -
Bad fortnight, having to travel though Devon 4 times a week at the moment, and for the foreseeable future. Basically, you cannot get rid of this mould once you have it. Manage it maybe, but it will always be lurking there.
