OK, thanks guys, I will check again and see where I am going wrong. jasonB - how did you do the calculation - the calculator asks you to put in number of meters required, not board length, so length of an individual board shouldn't matter to the calculation....... edit - or did you work out...

Erm, why would you be surprised if it feeds from the house CU - that is where it is supposed to feed from! Part-P, grey area and up to you, personally I wouldn't tell the council anything about it. The vast majority of the general populace know nothing about part-p so let ignorance be your...

Nope, rough sawn boards from the online calculator. Hope I converted inches to mm correctly :-k

I am idly costing a workbench and the cutlist on the plan suggests: 2 boards of 1" x 9" x 96" long 3 boards of 1" x 9" x 60" long 5 boards of 2" x 8" x 84" long 1 board of 2" x 10" x 84" long 2 boards 2" x 8" x 96" long 1 board 2" x 9" x 96" long This comes out to something like 550 + 100...

I get the feeling that it is not the media cases that are the reason for objecting to this, but rather the precident it sets for people to encourage others to take such a course of action. The general feeling seems to be that a terminally ill person should be allowed assisted suicide if that is...

Erm, have you looked at mortality statistics against income? Sorry to rain on your parade, but they show a very high correlation and suggest that indeed money can extend your life quite considerably. Across the UK low incomes and early death are associated highly with Scotland while older age is...

And yet this morning Nationwide reports a rise in house prices, the annual rate of fall is massively decelerating and is fairly confident they will be higher by the end of the year than at the start of the year. Greed has not yet had time to wear off and buy to letters have yet to be...

I have no idea, but have made a mental note to ask my Butler how much the cook gets paid and will get back to you :wink: Steve.

I have a sneaky feeling this only covers PAYE taxpayers, not the self employed or the retired. Most of the mega earners are not PAYE. Steve

Or the one doing most to catch and prosecute its cheats rather than totally ignoring the posibility of cheats like other sports. Depends on which way you look at it. Anti-doping initiatives such as Operation Puerto found evidence of a number of athletes from a range of sports doping but only...

:lol: nice summary IB. Mine is in the cellar though so no problem with being seen :D Plenty of turbos on e-bay, they are certainly not for everyone. I am in the middle of a diet and am suffering for a smaller waist but agree they are a less than perfect alternative to a cycle through the...

From that list I would avoid the Wiggle and go for the Boardman then the Allez (either) if I didnt like the test ride on the Boardman. you are getting a bit over your £500 budget now though - addictive isn't it! If kids are a problem then I seriously recommend thinking about a turbo trainer. If...

:lol: :lol:

Aye, he needs to make a few chests to keep his pension of gold and silver in...... Steve.

Well the bank keep all of your money instead of you having your savings elsewhere. The bank earn interest on investing your savings - more interest than they pay you or than they offset against your mortgage. The bank can try and charge you for the priveledge of you having a savings/current...

Hmm, £500 should get you something decent but without paying for carbon fibre everywhere. For a non-club cyclist that will be fine. If you plan to enter time trials or races then £500 is the lower limit of respectable. For solo runs etc however you will not be disappointed. As to make - go for...

15mm ply and 1" pine should be OK, 4 inch oak is a totally different story!

Aye, I used to like Nationwide too. Then they jumped on the same bandwagon as everyone else and started charging arrangement fees in the region of £500 - £1000 for taking out a mortgage with them. WTF? I really resent paying almost a grand as an arrangement fee. Take a 2 year deal and thats like...

Sorry, but I am in the camp that says he is an overpaid eejit who relies on shock and purile humour to raise a laugh. He could disappear from our screen forever right now and I wouldn't be the slightest bit disappointed. I do not find him funny at all, but then they do say that humour is...

Not the cheapest, but Jewsons or any build centre will be able to get it for you, although not many carry it as a stock item. Steve
