In the 40 years we have lived in our 1960s bungalow there has always been a problem with black mould despite cavity wall insulation and double glazed windows. Last winter I bought a Meaco Aret One dehumidifier which they claim is a whole house device. Instructions say open all doors and close...

Update, I had a face to face with my doctor who confirmed that I have another inguinal hernia on the other side. He said that if you have had one, the other side usually follows. I live in Gloucestershire and I have been refered to and given an apointment on the 16th December at a place in...

I had an inguinal hernia 12 years ago and my doctor was able to prescribe a truss on the NHS. When the surgeon operated he inserted a mesh to reinforce the area. I remember a lot of pain just after which involved an overnight stay. In the years since, the repair has been OK with only the...

My Fabia 1.2 petrol 12 valve 3 cylinder (no turbo) is a well put together car and has a good size boot for a small car. It does however have a rather noisy engine when accelerating, quite the noisiest of any car I have owned. It is also rather under powered and only suitable as a local runabout...

Past experience has taught me to never mention storm as a cause of damage when making an insurance claim. Weather conditions on the day in question is unspecific.

The Ch4 documentary `The Enemies Of Reason` by Richard Dawkins is worth watching.

I used to watch QT sometimes when Dimbleby was in charge. Watched the first three episodes when Bruce took over and I no longer watch QT. She also seems to have dumbed down the Antiques Roadshow.

I bought a low milage MK 2 Fabia 1.2 SE earlier this year. This is a well put together car with many good features. It is let down by the very noisy 3 cylinder petrol engine and this is the reason I will not be keeping it.

I worked for one of the Thrust 2 sponsors in the eighties and I made the anologue speeometer and rear wheel mounted sensor. This was calibrated up to 800mph. https://www.dropbox.com/s/as6letyx31supzj/Thrust2_20171026_0002.tif?dl=0 Thrust 2 is now at the Coventry Transport Museum.

I gave up on hifiwigwam since its last sale and 'improvement' has made it so slow that it is practically unusable. It was fine prior to this 'improvement'.

Information from AJ on Hddaudio, now called the unofficial AVI forum, states that they have sold half of the company and there is a new director named Martin Hill who is based in Sweden.

Mute is a separate function and two options are given, either in series or parallel (to s/c), the signal path. Full details are in the HiFiCollective instructions. http://www.hificollective.co.uk/sites/default/files/gh_remote_instuctions_0.pdf I use it with a Cambridge Audio handset which...

I bought this from HiFicollective http://www.hificollective.co.uk/catalog/glasshouse-remote-control-motorised-alps-p-6344.html which I use with an Alps 20K motorised pot on the CD input of a Quad 34. I thought it rather over priced but it does work very well. It also features a mute facility...

This kills my flies and wasps and only £0.95 a 300ml can. http://www.wilko.com/insecticides+pest-control/wilko-fly-wasp-killer-300ml/invt/0285379

Seems to be change for the sake of change. It should have been left as it was.
