  1. The Police lifted the floorboard for me in my first house when I found bones under the suspended floor. Did a lovely neat job. Must have been proud of their work as they took loads of photographs.
  2. Specifically designed with extra protection, both mechanical and shielding on the data side. To my gate I've a bit of 2.5mm2 3 core swa in a bfo DNO duct (60mm dia?), then two 20mm flexible conduits inside that for camera, gate release etc.
  3. My sincere apologies for suggesting you were a:
  4. I stopped listening when you said 25mm2 tbh. Plus you should take it as 5% not 3.
  5. You shouldn't mix voltages and data in the same cable like that.
  6. Look at the data plate on your gate motor for a start.
  7. I'd get a shock if I had to use a washing machine!
  8. Reference HIVE we bought the camera system to keep an eye on Dad in his last few months. BG are switching the service off, at least the camera side in 2025. Bloody disgusting tbh. Not cheap kit to buy and soon to be landfill I guess.
  9. Brilliant, pity about the video quality though.
  10. Play For Today 1984, very good. As for having your sword out...
  11. Maybe draw a line under it now?
  12. Talking to a chap the other day, his son was scaffolding a place so they could retro fit mesh around the on-roof PV panels. Seems they had a pigeon / bird problem with them nesting under the array.
  13. No main drainage, pavements or streetlights here either.
  14. What if you don't have mains gas, LPG?
  15. I might be able to Dremel a screwdriver slot in it.
  16. Thanks, I have one. Sods Law it'll be dissimilar metals and corroded tight!
  17. Handle on shower valve broke! You can see it broken off between the On & Off at the 12 o'clock position: Handset might not be original: Any ideas of the make? Cheers.
  18. 5:1 here with integral waterproofer added around 100mm steel posts.
  19. RAF Flyingdales may disagree... OK, that's more a clash of frequencies I think.
  20. Costs more to send the letters out! 😂
  21. Once rendered it'll look fine...unless he does the rendering! Seriously though, I've seen better and a lot worse. The joints appear to be filled OK, not sure on some of those weep vents... A good going over with Disclean or similar will improve the look no end and get rid of some of those snots he should have sacked off before they dried. What do I know? I'm an amateur but DIY or die so can blame nobody but myself!
  22. Mine went down 4' and hit the flint bed, so did the second and third rods. I just linked them all up. Saying that, the 2nd rod I changed to a bfo coppper earth plate just for fun and to see if I could better my readings.
