Can I ask a stupid question Though it’s obvious to see the ducting / pipework / cables in stud wall with one side open . How do you plasterboard the other side with certainty of not sticking a drywall screw through something ..... ???

Excuse me all ! What about my bloody amazing shower ! . Talk about off topic ?

Yep ! lets not mention filthy mouthed Captain Pugwash !

I do

Tacky ? What’s that mean ? It would look amazing - massive SWMBO points .

Oh I’m sure she charges more than that so I’ve heard .

I’m surprised at that . When I looked into icf ( some years ago ) they were adamant not to pour more than 5 or 6 levels . Guess things have changed .

Icf as far as I am aware you can only pour up to a certain height before risk of blowout increases more . This is what concerned me because I can’t get to the outside . So cost wise you might need the concrete pump twice . Also the icf insulation wasn’t thick enough so i’d Need to add PIR anyway .

I agree the fugee shape things are a joy and give great finish . Also I think less is more with mastic . When I use the structural silicone it cures in 10 minutes so I really have to move . With mastic etc. you do have time .

Yep ! Worked great ! Simply bed the first course then off you go . I had to add rebar in as I went . I shuttered any corners before the pour . Poured the whole lot in 1 go ! ; few minor issues but no real problems I insulated on the outside . Also land drain at base . Internally I will have membraned walls going into an internal drain then out to sump . The main thing is that stepoc is an easy diy approach - Christ ; I did it so it must be ! .

Yeah I thought you would . Looks like it does exactly as it promises.

Look ! https://funlink.store/products/tile-leveling-system

I’m here . Taking abuse whilst being innocent as usual ! ?

My pistols massive ! ?

Did @Onoff effectively call me a nerd ?

Lol ! Take him on !

No ! Don’t ask him - he will know you are onto him !!!

Do you mean your router has the default username and password for login? - this is NOT the same as the Wifi password! 2 different things! Once you do have the admin login some routers allow schedules so you can block your son's mac address (mac is a unique code for a device ). Perhaps enable it when he's been good!. You will be in control. CONTROL = POWER!

Excellent!. I'm up there Monday and will check that.!

It appears that the router can add it's own port forwarding rules for such things as WhatsApp. So it's possible there is no unauthorised access. Be real nice though if the router firmware actually said "I ADDED THESE'! https://www.homenethowto.com/ports-and-nat/upnp-automatic-port-forward/

Yeah I'm not totally up with this. Need to do some more googling!

But they would need the router admin password - which of course isn’t the default . Also one of the port forwarding entries was for WhatsApp . Why add that when you access the WiFi anyway ? Another was labelled as ‘xbox’ - no one in house has an Xbox . Thing is I was in and out the port forwarding pages everyday whilst fiddling with cameras. Only went in today because they aren’t working . Does anyone know if it’s possible to login to a router remotely? E.g <global ip>192.168.1.254 / admin/ <password> So I can at least look at the hubs settings remotely...

Did you change the admin password or just WiFi access ?

Also the culprit port forwarding rules are in a different colour - not sure of the relevance of that .
