    Where did all the water go?!?

    Glass does move but it is hardly measurable over geological time scales.

    Order tracking

    You are quite right not to open an attachment from an unknown source. Even known people can be suspect at times.

    Order tracking

    The supplier is responsible for the deliver. If the courier damages or delivers to the wrong place etc it is down to the supplier. if you pay by credit card the bank is also liable.

    Order tracking

    Luckily I have not had a supplier who does not know who the courier company is. I wonder how Warco get things collected for delivery! I can understand using more than one courier but I would keep a record of which parcel goes with which courier. I wonder how they reconcile the invoices from...

    Order tracking

    Correct, the OP does not have to give a reason of why they need to know what is in any particular package and why they can not use the sellers website to get the tracking information. The reason you want to do something will effect the potential solutions.

    Order tracking

    Which is why you contact the sellers website, it is quite simple; I assume that you have an internet connection at your home. If you are having half a dozen deliveries a day does it rally matter what oreder the deliveiers coming each day. If it is half a dozen a week it is easy to look up on...

    Order tracking

    You are just being evasive. It is perfectly logical to ask why you need to know if it is the bolts or router bits coming at 1000 or 1600. If you have a reason other than "I just need to know" you can post it.

    Order tracking

    The seller will know what courier company they are using. You look at your order on the sellers website and they will link you to the couriers website with the package number. The couriers website depending on its quality will tell you the day or hour etc when it is being delivered. If a...

    Order tracking

    I am not sure why you want to insult someone for asking logical questions. I can understand why someone may have an illogical need to know what the person is delivering before they get the package.

    Order tracking

    You have not explained why it is important outside the reasons that I give. Why does it matter if the router bits come at 1000 and the bolts come at 1600 or the the router bits come at 1600 and the bolts come at 1000. What matters is that you know that something is coming so that it is not...

    Order tracking

    In most cases I do not understand why you need to know what is being delivered. If an item is of particular importance or value you may want to make sure that you spot the delivery. Amazon seem to knock, leave the package and run away here. But I have always know that they would be delivering...

    Where did all the water go?!?

    The new bridge is a problem. At least when there was just the lift bridge it would get stuck up on occasion.

    Where did all the water go?!?

    90 billion kg of water is 90 million m3. A lake 10m deep, covering just less than 1km2 will hold all that water. It is just a drop in the bucket.

    Where did all the water go?!?

    A company I worked for were doing some work on a railway tunnel in Birmingham. There were restrictions on the movement of the tunnel during the construction. Before they started construction they started taking measurements and discovered that the tunnel was moving before they started works. I...

    Where did all the water go?!?

    Some water will be trapped chemically in rocks. I the distant past water was added by meteor etc strikes. Water can also end up in aquifers.

    B & Q returns 45 or 90 days

    I bought a 1000mm long bit of steel tube from B & Q yesterday. Most likely could have got a longer length cheaper elsewher but then i would have to store the off cut until I found a use for it and would have to spend time looking and travel to collect. The thing that is strange is that the...

    Where did all the water go?!?

    The Alps were formed by Africa floating north and hitting Europe pushing up the rock in the "crumple"zone. In other places the sea bed may be forced down. The higher land in the UK was mostly formed the same way. Then water, the wind, ice etc slowly grind it all down and the seas fill up with...
