Onoff

I've seen non numbered seals used by DNOs contractors. Worse still they've fitted a new head once before and fitted no seals whatsoever!

Don't think I would recommend the one I've just fitted as per above picture. Maybe I got my sums wrong ref the volume etc. Maybe it's only working 75% as one edge is so close to the wall.

Humidity gets to 90 odd percent on occasion. Fan will run until well into the next morning. Still, it looks good...

He had "forest" wallpaper on the wall opposite so that reflected in the mirrors. Was really effective.

Not as naff as it sounds but years ago a mate did a pseudo window in a windowless room by sticking mirror tiles on the wall as the "panes". He then used self adhesive white mini trunking for the "frame". Done in a Georgian style complete with pole, curtains and sill.

There's a long term project in a number of African countries, costs aprrox USD600 per install. http://www.ecreee.org/sites/default/files/event-att/20130423_wacca_presentation.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwjagPD_24TkAhWLTBUIHeERA94QFjARegQIBBAB&usg=AOvVaw3Y5SwBqfPIevajy6hfhNt0&cshid=1565866738131 I've read elsewhere that bringing a similar scheme to rural India, where it would benefit the population hugely, is hampered again by the whole taboo, "job for the untouchables" thing.

Invented by ME!

On the biscuit front maybe something a little off piste like Garibaldi? Can't go wrong with Tunnocks either...

If I had the time and money if have a go at a biogas plant. Figure my plot's geography lends itself. Being on a slope I'd site an outside WC or garden room at the top of the slope feeding the gas plant. The same top corner is also where most of our garden waste goes so I could have a feed into the plant too for green stuff. I've read 50/50 brown to green is optimum. The extra "brown"; my neighbour has ducks, chickens, horses and dogs. I'm sure they'd appreciate a crap chute set into the fence! ? As the slope runs East down to West some solar thermal panels on the South side would keep thinks warm. All gravity fed from the top of the slope. Gas pipe down to the house and/or back to the garden room to a boiler or gennie.

My Gurkha friends grew up using a local Nepalese design. Mum would cook on the gas produced and they did their homework by gaslight. They had buffalo though! Seems it was a ritual Mum would muck out the animals and feed the biogas plant. Interesting that using human waste was considered taboo.

BG fitted a smart meter to my Mum and Dad's place and at the same time a Wylex REC2 isolator after the meter. They fitted new tails between the meter and REC2 but left the original 16mm, cloth covered tails now between the new REC2 and consumer unit. They wrote on their notes recommending the original tails be changed which I did.

FINALLY sorted the brake / clutch. Those two poxy, broken 1/4" BSW bolts fought me until the end! Moved the big orange patio ornament yesterday. Getting it back to the main lawn was fun. A mate and I handballed it down originally...he's having his hernia op tomorrow... ? Now to sort: - Seized pulley on the cutting deck - Seized pulley on the grass box - Seized grass roller, back of the grass box. Biggest problem is the corrosion on the cutting deck side skirt. Was going to make up a new one today and weld on but it hasn't stopped raining.

Sorry, not tried oil yet on any bricks. It was only this thread now made me remember. @Brickie's your man.

You apply linseed oil to the face before laying as far as I'm aware. It was @Brickie who said it "saves all the aftercare". Tbh I forgot and laid my pillar bricks unoiled.

Is that an internal stack?

Best you contact McAlpine then and tell them they've got it wrong and that it can only be used to go into clay... ?

Our broadband is so slow here my son worked out it would be quicker to drive to Brighton and back and use his uni digs mega fast Virgin connection that wait for whatever to download overnight here. Must check he's cancelled it thinking about the Virgin package. Also need to find new digs as he's not doing a placement year...

Loads of options from a couple of offsets like this: To a minimal offset like this:

Strange...do you have as very slow connection? If so then do zip for a start. I often use it without issue (or zipping) and my speeds are about 8mbps down and 2mbps up. You could try Smash but that doesn't have a mobile app (yet): https://fromsmash.com/ Other than that then Dropbox like others have suggested above. That annoys me though when you keep getting emails that you've reached your capacity / would you like to upgrade. Also I think Dropbox limits you to 2GB storage space. Not an issue as such but vague recollection that if you reach your limit of 2GB then delete 1GB thus freeing up 1GB it won't have it as it works on all the data uploaded ever. Then the upgrade emails start. As I say, could be wrong.

Crystal Palace me. Direct line of sight but for the sides of the valley I have to point at with the highest gain Band A I could get. I might try and make another sheet/mesh trough antenna before I give up on terrestrial all together. I had a word with the neighbour as an aside and he's happy to lop off the problem conifers.

WeTransfer is just SO easy. I most frequently use it to send large 'ish video files taken on site with the phone.

Use WeTransfer it's a doddle. I use it all the time. https://wetransfer.com/ Your email, his email, upload to 2GB. Recipient has 7 days to download. You don't need to even zip the 260MB.

Cheers @nod, saved me telling him it's over. ?

The cheap ones that rounded off I had were from S'fix and purportedly Grade A2, not sure on the hardness though. Fit A4 316 for a start to guarantee against corrosion.
