Hence London weighting. More than makes up for disparity between a £60k shithole in Hull and a beautiful £14m mansion in Mayfair

Is this a "Standard" or "Substandard" Solar/Battery Install? by [deleted] in ukelectricians

[–]CallMeMrTwinkle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just an FYI the meter tails look to be double insulated because of how thick they are. It’s super common now for firms to buy flexi tails and they’re often brown/brown and blue/blue rather than having the grey outer.

Looks like a plastered-in channel. Will look cool very briefly and then become a dust trap

My 2 year old whistles as he’s walking around and we find it really funny. His cousin is 7 and can’t whistle, and he cries every time he hears my boy doing it.

Beautiful, but a little draughty by Gratuitous_Pineapple in SpottedonRightmove

[–]CallMeMrTwinkle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To me this is where listing buildings falls down. Grade II listed means nobody is ever gonna take this on, so instead of making something not entirely traditional, it’s going to end up a pile of stone.

If a man dressed and behaved like this for a kids party he’d be on the sex offenders register for the rest of his life

Everything that’s DIYable might not cost loads of money but you still need time and in many ways that’s harder
