What thickness as it ranges from 6mm to 19mm for 10mm pipe and 9mm to 32mm for 22mm pipe. The thermal conductivity is 0.033 W.m-1.K-1

What needs working out?

I just noticed that my 'quiet hours' was on. This is after the last Windows 10 update (the fairly big one). That may have accounted for the drop out on my mates wireless. Turned it off now and all seems fine. I did, when I was with TalkTalk, set up an RPi that pinged google every 5 seconds, was just to prove to myself that my connection was really causing problems.

Just emailed ESRI who did the survey to ask how they did it and if they wish to comment. @Roger440 They are in Aylesbury, just about opposite the Blue Leany. If you are passing, call in.

So are you lot saying that this survey was a load of bollocks then.

I had a job taking the 'naughty kids' into school (actually the could not care less parent's little shits). Primary schools often insist that a parent or guardian stays with the child in the playground until called into class by the teacher. I had to use a 'safe word' when picking kids up without their parents. There is also the issue that many parents work and drop their children off on the way to work, often going to 2 or 3 geographically dispersed schools. They days of the local school, with a dedicated bus service are well over in most areas. But the fact that the average distance from that survey is around 40 miles is pretty impressive. I used to get from Aylesbury to Richmond Upon Thames in 1h 15m, I did leave at 5:45am. I did manage the 50 miles home in 1 hours on my last day. I figured that if I got a speeding ticket they would not know who had the pool car But they are exceptions and not really relevant to this research. 8 cars waiting to get on a roundabout is a traffic jam down here. They don't have a clue and insist that Truro is dreadful. I usually hear that from people that go there by bus or only go there occasionally.

It may be a problem with the phone line. The reason I ditched my land line was because it was a dreadful connection. Dropped out dozens of times a day.

Yes there are always exceptions. But the thing is, it really is not as bad as people make out. I regularly used to travel the motorway network when I worked for Welcome Break. I only once had a terrible journey (stationary for a total of 7 hours). Some of my work colleagues used to not leave the office until about 8:30 in the morning and then just sat on the M1 going nowhere. I used to leave earlier and never had a problem.

Interesting bit on the Beeb about commuting. OK it is done by a GIS company to sell there software. But shows that road traffic is really not that bad. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/resources/idt-sh/the_friday_night_rush

ROFL The nitrate comment was a good one. I shall use that.

I was connected to a mates wifi yesterday and the day before and I was getting disconnected a lot. I put that down to their wifi. Windows was reporting no wifi, but was still connected. We were experiencing many very short (less than a second) power cuts the day before. So may hve been something to do with that. All seems fine now. The two android devices I have (phone and Fire) seem to work just dandy.

It may well be worth you getting an air leakage test done, that way you know where you are starting from. You could make your own fan and manometer/pressure gauge if you are fairly practical and save yourself a few quid.

Is anyone filling to put up a couple of sketches. One with the ideal installation for NSS's house and one that would be the absolute ideal installation for UFH, a rad or two and a towel rail with electric element. It may make it a bit clearer to follow. I suspect that the installers are plumbers that have decided to do a few HPs rather than experts in then (X is an unknown quantity, spurt is a drip under pressure).

Pretty good now. I think SAS had a lot to do with getting it cleaned up. Down near Levant Mine there is a stream that is a lovely blue from the copper sulphate. I keep thinking I should stick a PV panel up and see how much I can electrolyse out.

Got to be safer than this http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1087772/Boy-12-collapsed-died-using-Lynx-deodorant.html But my cute neighbour likes the smell of this on me: https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/267154230 And it is only a quid. Who would want to be a teenager again!

Do a lot of teasing, and if you can find the landowner, tell him to ask for more 'rent' on the land.

I suppose that if you live next to a large windfarm or solar farm, and you believe that it reduces property prices, and the estate agent and buyer does as well, then you have a self fulfilling prophecy. Now I have not read that preliminary draft paper for the LSE yet, but taking your figures at face value, I would have thought that 12% maximum, and a 3% minimum downward price shift is a combination of things i.e. over optimistic asking price, decor, general aspiration of buyer, interest rates and fixed term loans, value of house for sale, quantity of houses for sale, general over pricing of housing... Could probably pick holes it is quite easily. To give you an idea of the variation in realism, my neighbour paid 35% more for his house than I did, he still thinks it is worth what he paid for it. He compares it to some housing that is slightly larger, in a better location and in an area that has sold a few houses. I on the other hand accept that my house has gone down in value by about 20% and is in an area that is hard to sell in. There have been no sales here since about 2007, so a decade without data.

Just so that I understand what is going one. These mixer valves allow the fluid to be circulated around the UFH pipework. When a greater temperature is needed, they open up a valve from the ASHP/Buffer/Thermal Store (or whatever) and inject some hotter fluid into the UFH pipework, with some colder fluid redirected back to the ASHP/Buffer/Thermal Store (or whatever). Then, when it is up to to the desired temperature, they close again and the UFH pipework is allowed to have fluid flow though it until the temperature drops and another injection is needed. So as long as the ASHP/Buffer/Thermal Store (or whatever) is at a greater temperature i.e. 40°C for a floor flow temperature of say 35°C, then the mixer valve does the fine control. If cooling then it is reversed with warm water from the UFH pipework being sent to the ASHP/Buffer/Thermal Store (or whatever). Actually, probably not a thermal store in this case. Is that basically right?

I did see that god's cousin, Furby. I ran terrified out the room as it attracted children.

If you don't have tractors passing by, or mooing cows, bleating sheep, barley (I am badly allergic the pollen), or basically an industrial process on your door step, how does this affect your house value. Like windfarms, is there really any evidence that holds up that there is a genuine negative impact. Or is it just a belief based on nothing.
