  1. I'd say that in the post... Look at the photos you knobs ITS FREE!
  2. It's an attitude question
  3. How long do you expect to live for...
  4. Hope in a new Scotland we will see repopulation of the Highlands...plenty of room and beautiful. Might mean motorways and train lines but why not, population could easily grow by half comfortably in the long term. Closer ties with Scandinavia including flights and ferries too...we are far to south east centric. How the devil can a police sergeant and a nurse afford a reasonable house down there...it's crazy. It's not as if you don't need them and with a joint salary c£70k you *might* get a mortgage of what...? £200k. Even in Glasgow that gets you a very nice house in a nice area. In London you get not a lot...
  5. That looks nice, like the jazzy pink lights. Does the next bit involve sticking the big flat things onto the blue bit?
  6. The forum is, as you know a helpful place...the odd bit of mirth keeps things rolling along...no negatively intended. Your doing a great job, keep the faith? If you were nearby I'd come and hold your PB for you...but alas can only view and offer the odd comment. No point though as private first class is doing such a wonderful job?
  7. Am I the only suspicious soul who is pondering if Zoot is really an incognito forum regular yanking @Onoff s chain...
  8. What about this... thinking ahead for the tool loan scheme ? Why do you need the upstand under the tile? Might it get stuck...or as you mentioned, stick to the tanking. No upstand equals less contact with the wall?
  9. Do you have a multi-tool Example http://www.argos.co.uk/product/4768458?storeID=351&cmpid=GS001&_$ja=tsid:59156|acid:444-797-0832|cid:596310901|agid:28594123885|tid:pla-187856529685|crid:95887239565|nw:g|rnd:6659632900571386716|dvc:m|adp:1o2|mt:|loc:9046933&gclid=CjwKCAjw2MTbBRASEiwAdYIpsWd8Ea3yGoWNeDGuDRREt7Qo-oXh7E9-GiTQU8IlXliJUs0-setY8hoCTkEQAvD_BwE
  10. Can't you (with power OFF) have a tug at the wires going into the wall and see how far you can gently pull out any slack. Often there will be plenty ...
  11. You could mark the batten positions on the floor and ceiling...don't see any in your pictures
  12. Hey @Peter and @Nickfromwales BC knocked back my application as it was too amateur. I phoned the BC guy and he was uber helpful and said it was a close thing but just not good enough. Letter of refusal attached.Building control refusal letter redacted.pdf I sent the Beamcalcs report I got online Steel_Beam_Calculations_ref_69139.pdf but they said as they do not have an internal Structural engineer employed they would put it out to tender to authorise the calcs. He pointed out the blurb in the calcs relates to English BC Standards and would need changed to suit the Scottish codes. The other comment on the phone was I should show before and after electrical socket positions and say in the application these would be in line with the relevant regulation. Also that demolition works would be carried out in line with regulation BS 6187. BC guy said he would help all he could.... Question now is 1. Do I go with one of the fella's you know but be aware they may relate to English codes 2. Try again with a better drawing and take the BC guys invitation to review/help out? I'm not in a great hurry and have 8 months to resubmit. A new Buildhubber offered to do the drawings for me but that fell through...
  13. Packaging looks pretty fine to me if a little torn...you guys will kill the environment if you keep wrapping everything up like a kitten ?
