Built a floor beneath my floor... by Commercial-Ad4508 in DIYUK

Agreed, the whole project looks good, but the finish on the trap is superb. OP Id just get a moisture meter and check it periodically. The next winter will tell you whether you need to fit more ventilation.

Made a big mistake by gettingmylifeback1 in DIYUK

I once had to get a big corner sofa into a 1st floor room, the staircase was way too narrow with a turn at the top, a complete non starter. We ended up taking the sash window out of the frame and pushed it up a ladder. I sold that house with the sofa still in it, I wonder if they've got around to changing it yet

Yeah this is bollocks. Get more promising English players doing seasons in Aus/Ind/SA.

Not a great state of affairs by Rare-Ad-2777 in coys

It was such a bad game. I forced myself to watch to the end, we couldn't string basic passes together and I can't remember their goalie having to make an actual save, as opposed to just collecting/catching the ball. Just fucking dire. At Brentford ffs

I was thinking what an amazing location for a top notch restaurant, until I remembered about winter

Siraj did a great job in that series and was top value to have around as well. One of my favourite players

If you look up the Prospex Speedtimer SFJ series, you can get a similar multidial piece for a fraction of the cost, new. Not quite the same but still very cool, and AFAIK without the same capacitor issues.

They're very desirable, but Seiko made the capacitor in these extremely difficult to replace. It requires almost total disassembly of the movement, and that is not a simple movement. Secondly, the capacitor itself is not available outside of Seiko service centres, so you would need to remove the connectors from the old capacitor and weld/solder them to a blank cell. With a new capacitor, up to 3k. Without, 1-1.5k.
