The state of the rest of my place guests will be clamouring to get into my bathroom! Effin freezing at the mo until I get some heat in there.

Hugely impressed. All this work will mean what, more accurate printing?

Quick vid...£150 and I'll stick any label on it you want!

If they've none try the Vacqueyras (very similar)!

Chateauneuf du Pape in there was less than a tenner!

Again, look no further than Lidls Cepa Lebrel Rioja Reserva! Also highly recommend the 14.5% Pinotage. Come to think of it I must be about 2 weeks dry. Haven't had caffeine for a week either. The headaches have pretty much subsided.

Maybe they need to make the software open source...

I'd have laid money on you being a Hitachi man...

Nah! If they were, they'd have broken up that 11 tonne they gave away with club hammers.

Part M doesn't differentiate does it, just says "sockets and switches"? The exception it does cite is consumer units can be a little higher. I've got one deliberately high 1G socket on the landing from when I was going the put the router up high. I didn't but it would be a pain for a disabled person to reset the router up high.

Notching trusses for Lateral restraint straps
Onoff replied to James1's topic in General Structural Issues
The straps have to tie onto a full block still I assume? Got a very early Part A here circa late 80's. -

Royal patronage for the forum at last! ? -
Socket and switch heights are from Part M "Services & Controls". Page 9: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/access-to-and-use-of-buildings-approved-document-m BCO might pick up if you deviate. A socket is a socket whether 230V or AV / network and should be accessible. If you do run in a line then you'll need to separate the LV lines and "network" stuff with insulated conduit or trunking.

150mm either way from internal corner.....aka the "shelf bracket zone" to Joe Public! ? Maybe if they taught safe zones in school?
-
Picture 1 & 4.....what are the (5?) conduits running down left of the 2G socket? As in not in the safe zone.....how will anyone know not to drill?

I'd love a stream. Best I've got is the road that occasionally becomes a seasonal water course. Before it was a road elderly locals said it was little more than a narrow ditch but that watercress grew along the "banks". This time it joined up with the Darent about 3 or 4 miles down the valley: Interestingly the watercourse crosses two historic boreholes that I only knew were there due to a link @JSHarris posted.

Solar thermal array at the bottom of the hill? No pump needed/ natural thermo siphoning....

It's suggesting it's directional. I assume you get low with the handset for cleaning the shower? Have an issue here with the upstairs en suite shower tray. If my daughter showers I'll occasionally get drips coming down into the cupboard of the new bathroom. Most likely she's not too careful about pulling the shower curtain across and the water goes outside and under the tray. Can't really stand in there whilst she's showering to find the leak! Could be to do with the time she spends in there too. Wish she'd bloody clean up too, it's like Cousin It's been in there! When the wife showers it doesn't happen. Can't wait to rip the en suite out!

You're thinking of the trick with a fat bird...

Back In The Land Of The Living in the words of Linda Mertens! I re-did the pockets. Peeled all the silicone out and cleaned. This time I did the six verticals first and left to dry. Then I did the short returns and horizontals at the same time. Up close? Well, this is about the best. Next time I'll do verticals and leave to dry. Then short returns and let them dry. Lastly the horizontals. A pain getting the little blue Fugi tool into the corners and you disturb the adjacent horizontal if still wet. And this was even working out from the corner. Happy enough with the 5mm bead along the shelf: However... The junction where the pen is I'd CT1'd. Thought I'd left it low enough. I hadn't! The 5mm tool caught the lumpy CT1. Tried 8mm, 10mm then 12mm. Even at 12mm the white needs to be thick to look "white". Amazingly the super translucent CT1 shows through as a dark line! So I've ripped it all out..... Going to risk just the white silicone with the 5mm tool.....when I get some more!
