  1. Yes leave them alone they will leave about end september and you will not see them again . Show your little girl what they are doing and explain all about honey bees , I had a nest near my front door last year and nobody got stung. They seem to like a particular plant mine were always on a pyrocanthus 1000s of them a joy to watch. My grand child age 11 was wanting them to come back this year but they never did.
  2. Do You mean in a few years if it dries out You want to hope it doesnt rain for a few months
  3. Give us a break she is a woman and if you want to start an argument he is quite right are you
  4. Tagema tut Tut Do tagema take money off you up front before they proove the systymn works like any other reputable firm you should pay when satisfied . There are loads of miracle cures out there non work. If you have damp- water in a building stop it getting in not trying to fight it or there will be only one wlnner.
  5. You send a message to seller can i pay cash on collection . If he doesnt answer your messages report him to e/bay . If you have already made a bid e/bay will cancel it for you if they do not answer messeges. Never pay by pay pal if you have to go to sellers house to collect an item any way bonfiide sellers always want cash ; As far as car goes do not part with any money till you have test driven it put it on hpi seen log book and got keys in your hand. If you are intrested in a car ask seller for redg and hpi it before you go and look at it . As the americans say let the buyer beware.
  6. Ordinary lights cameras do not flash you if you are are speeding they only flash you if you go through at red .But they will tell you what speed you were doing when you went through at red. The yellow cameras are speed camer as govermment regulations state .
  7. Got done on hanover way for going through at red' Was sure it was green so went down to snig hill to look at video. It showed back of car still on junction at red and the speed i was doing 20 mph. You aint got done for speeding you got done for going through at red
  8. Hully resevoir has big perch caught several arond 3 pound mark over the years . Rivers are very unlikely to hold big perch .A big resevoir a lot better bet. Put a couple of rods out with worm on at hully and you in with a goog chance , The place is under fished no one fishes it due to bad acces and price Fish pegs 2 3 8 9 or 10 .You can get car paked near you on bridge . Think fishing ticket machine broke so no need to pay for fishing. park free near bridge near peg 1
  9. When wooden gutter is bought from merchants 50 percent has cracks or splits in it. Unless the person fitting fetched it himself and was a bit selective you could have got some with cracks in. Fitter may have just filled cracks in with mastic possibly. Next tlme inspect it yourself before its fitted. Would have thaught it would last at least 10 years if. Unfortunately after 12 months the original fitter would be very unlikely to come back. but you can always ask and he may be a bit sypathetic if a reputable roofer.
  10. Hi anybody fishing treeton dike i went today[ monday] and only one bite a nice tench though 5 pounds 3 oz Fished 11oclock to 3 oclock, Any one had any bream.
  11. Unplug sky box for 1 minute normally cures it . Screw sky connetions are also notorious for bad connections. Dont unscrew just hold sky box and push cable into screw connectors.
  12. Main thing is make sure it has 12 months M. O T. on it.
  13. My wife uses my electric one . She is a bank clerk Under supervision of course. Modern day chain saws have loads of built in safety features Very easy to use more likeley to have an accident with a bow saw,
  14. Dont you any grand kids. They would sort it out better than any coin counter , Probably want 10 percent though.
  15. No chainsaws run on a 4 to 1 mix. More likely 40 to 1. Sthill chainsaws mix is 50 to 1. Mcculoch is 40 to 1. Special bottle for mixing oil and petrol. There is usually a mark on bottle says 40 to 1 or 50 to 1 fill it to this mark with petrol . On the top normaly a pot for oil fill this with oil. THEN squease the bottle this sucks oil through mix with petrol shake bottle to mix . LOOK in hand book for correct mix for saw. Regarding chainsaw one filler cap is for the petrol oil mixture and the 2nd cap filler is for oil that feeds the chain when its cutting .This a special oil called chain oil
  16. What kind off guarantee did you get with this systymn Is it approved by building socitys and mortgage lenders. Is there any upkeep to this systymn servicing electric bills etc. Will you reply to this please or it will seem like you are trying to convince yourself and not others. If some thing sounds to good to be true it normally is. they would put all big fims like sika out of buisness . Seems like you have been a fall guy my friend. Also if you try to sell the propety and people see tansmiters on a wall they ask what they are and you have to tell them the propety has a damp issue this makes propety unsaleable.
  17. Soil wants to be reasonably firm so turf doesnt sink after its laid. Get a long lat or straight edge about 6 feet long lay it on soil and fill all holes in beneath it. Grass will grow anywere so long as its watered. Have you thaught of seeding it if you have raked it well probably a good option to save yourself some money Main thing is water every day with turf
  18. IT was already in but i used to be a builder so it would have been no problem Its not a hard job suitable for a briclayer whoe has a mate as a joiner You buy the door frame ready made and get the Fire door to suit whilst you at the merchants. Are you any good at D I Y
  19. I have a door from garage to house and would not do without it . Get a quote from reputable builder you cannot price a job without looking at it but probably about a £1000 Dont forget it has to be a fire door and probably comes under building regulations
  20. Got a petrol and and electric always use electric as no hassle. if you get an electric get a powerfull one with 2.200cc motor these are very powerfull and will cut any thing down . Mine are Mcculouch 338cc petrol with easy start and 2 mcculoch 2.200 electric . Why not come and have a look and try them and will sell you one if you want Petrol £80 electric £30 each. One thing about chainsaws is you always want a sharp chain and they are very easy to sharpen yourself takes about 15 mins 07779820168 Sheffield 13
  21. Off the subject becky but did you know house had all these damp problems when you bought it. Cure to me is if ground outside is higher than d.p.c. lower it or dig out and put a land drain with shingle on top , Knock plaster of on inside walls about a metre high then silicone inject bwk and re-plaster with ren-ovateing plaster IF a cellar is involved do as i said at start . Handy pandy seems to know what the game is .Ask him to have a look at it for you if he;s not busy . Alll the best you have to do it right you only get one chance
  22. Cure the cause and you cure the problem Dont like the look of this one .Like to know what building surveyors think about it . Is it recognised as a cure by mortgage lenders. What happens if the machine breaks down and you dont realise do all the walls get damp again .Be to late then if all walls are plastered. An accident waiting to happen.
  23. How can you expect any body to help if they dont know what area you want help with. Probably this is why it has gone on years. Do you need a solicitor Mr Shaw says solicitors specilise in there own field contact a firm like Irwin Mitchell and make an appointment to see the right one. You may qualify for legal aid if the thaught off expence is holding you back.
  24. You could always try it and if not succesfull render it
  25. On a shared supply its lead pipe work . On terraced propeties lead pipe work used to run all over the place. Re furbs always put in seperate supply and a water meter. Dont know were you got that one from about kick up if on a busy road. Water meters and seperate supplies will soon be on every propety under S.Y.W. S.Y.W.are also responsible for all main runs of drainage on your propety . If you have a drain made up contact them first before you get a contractor out might save tou some money. Water supplies mains run under cause ways they do not have to dig the road up- to put a new supply in. Lead supplies are replaced these days with a boring machine no digging involved . Do not not get solicitors involved in situations like this you will be opening pandoras box
