    There's drinking and then there's drinking???

    When I was a lad, teenager, I played a fair bit of golf, and I was quite good at it, without really trying. I enjoyed it but knew I could not play with a hangover from alcohol (or more likely the evil weed :wink: ). I had mates at the time who would get stoned in the evening and not get out of...

    Could someone please check a web page in IE

    That's gone over my head I'm afraid Roger. Why should it work for you and not me (Safari 3.0.4) Andy

    Could someone please check a web page in IE

    Brilliant guys, that link works fine. That really has saved me a lot of work trying to get an IE machine up and running again. I will leave some feedback and let the LB of Bromley know. Cheers Andy

    Could someone please check a web page in IE

    Thanks both. Just a thought, could you post the URL of the page that displays the documents as perhaps it's the way that the link has been written that safari objects to rather than the actual address. Thanks again Andy

    Yet Another Workshop Build...

    I think this has to be the first non-rectalinear workshop we have seen around here. I'll be interested to see how you make best use of the space, especially in front of that curved wall. Nice roof. Why was it free? Andy

    Workshop electricity supply

    I've got an electrician coming soon to install a second fuse box in my garage and run a cable out to the barn ready for the workshop conversion. He's quoted for 10mm but I've no idea what the regs are here :shock: Something you should not forget when calculating consummation is your heat...

    Heat loss and shutters

    Gary, that is brilliant, I owe you one, or two. From now on all the shutters will be closed at night. When I come to repair or replace I will make sure the gaps are reduced as much as possible. Incidentally inward opening windows are a PITA as they never seem to have any stays or other method...

    Heat loss and shutters

    Gary, what can I say? But thanks. I would like to think the information would be useful for others too so I will buy you a few collective pints. I've had a look around all he shutters and reckon that there is never more than a 1/2" gap between the shutters (hinge side) and the walls, top and...

    OK Gary, thanks, here goes Frame material........ Hardwood Glass Spec...... double, I've no idea if they are argon fill. They were put in when the house was built 15 years ago. There are none of those glass bubbles inside. Inter-pane gap.... How do I measure? I would guess about 15mm Shutter...

    How to go over the top with security

    Over here Roger it's the opposite. Just a 6 digit number is all's that's required to access our bank account, plus the customer number (held in the PC). It was the bank cards that left me incredulous. The banks issues the PIN number and you cannot change it! They gave me a 4 digit PIN with only...

    Heat loss and shutters

    Chas, No not yet:lol:. Although for the life of me I cannot understand why they were ever taken out. Am seriously thinking of putting them back. Going back to the shutters if I can find two thermometers that give the same reading I'll put one each outside a shuttered window and a non shuttered...

    Jenx, thanks. As I suspected. I have noticed though that we seem to get a lot less condensation on the windows with the shutters closed. Andy

    Heat loss and shutters

    Reading Rogers' thread on heat loss calculations has got me thinking again about external shutters and what, if any, contribution they make in reducing heat loss. I've had a trawl around the web on this subject before but have only ever found info regarding internal shutters. Has anyone got...
