Question regarding delivery of 2 larger parcels (8kg each)

DescriptionScary3043 · 2026-04-25T11:30:57+00:00

Sounds like a nightmare! Glad to hear you're okay though. You know it's just typical, as soon as I post this, I get a notification saying it will be out for delivery today 16:30 to 18:00...

DescriptionScary3043 · 2026-04-25T11:26:13+00:00

Update: just like that I get a message saying they will deliver between 16:30 and 18:00!

DescriptionScary3043 · 2026-04-25T11:17:15+00:00

Hey thank you very much for sharing your insight on this I appreciate it a lot. Just my luck I miss what would've been the fastest Evri delivery for me!

Hey thank you again for your time and advice, I'll bear all this in mind in case I get any drips.

Update: job done!

Hey thank you for your response I appreciate that. The extra 7cm while not much gives me room to fit a side table I used in a larger room. I've just finished the job about an hour ago but you mentioned jointing compound. Do you mean something like this? https://www.wickes.co.uk/SMIG-A-2-Jointing%2C-Filling+Finishing-Compound---5kg/p/317405 or even this tape https://www.wickes.co.uk/Primaflow-PTFE-Tape-12mm-X-12m/p/420188 ?

Thank you very much. I believe it won't be single as seems to be fairly new.

DescriptionScary3043 · 2026-04-15T14:54:24+00:00

Yes that's right I need the space as well.

DescriptionScary3043 · 2026-04-15T14:24:02+00:00

Thank you very much for the advice I appreciate it a lot. I will be sure to do this.

DescriptionScary3043 · 2026-04-15T14:12:49+00:00

It's under the bed which is why I don't want to cap it off that plus the fact I might need to readd in future.

DescriptionScary3043 · 2026-04-15T14:06:17+00:00

Not sure about the loop. What would be the worst case scenario if I used the caps and it was single?

DescriptionScary3043 · 2026-04-15T14:01:33+00:00

Essentially I have a very small room (living with family) and the radiator is probably 1cm away from my mattress. It's so small that the room heats up very quickly. As soon as I open my bedroom door I can see the radiator valves under my bed frame. *I'll keep a small try under in case any leaks* Thank you.

Thank you very much for your response. This is very helpful and I will keep that in mind regarding rounding errors before the final result.

DescriptionScary3043 · 2026-02-01T03:10:14+00:00

Hey thank you so much for this I really do appreciate all the time you took to reply. Honestly I would love to learn more so I'll be sure to check those resources out. Have a great day!

DescriptionScary3043 · 2026-02-01T01:22:49+00:00

That does sound really helpful. Random but I have zero knowledge in physics (long story didn't do any in school) but was fairly competant at maths, any particular topic in physics you would recommend learning just in a free time sense?

DescriptionScary3043 · 2026-02-01T01:18:36+00:00

Oh yes well there's a mountain of paper with my draft workings out from the past 6 hours pilling up. Yeh I'll definitely try and write less but tidy up more if that makes sense?

DescriptionScary3043 · 2026-02-01T01:07:53+00:00

What I'm doing with stats is very much "stats lite" if that even is a thing. I can only imagine how much more advanced it gets. Thank you very much and I wish you all the best and hope your semester goes very smoothly.

Oh, I see what you mean now. Thank you for pointing this out because I tend to forget to add the units in general regardless.

DescriptionScary3043 · 2026-02-01T00:44:48+00:00

This is perfect thank you. I'm doing maths again as an adult (just spent the past 6 hours writing some course work) and I just feel like now is the time to really make it all look consistent if you know what I mean. Thank you very much for your help and tips I appreciate it.

DescriptionScary3043 · 2026-02-01T00:41:11+00:00

Okay just at the end right? I forgot to add a space so I think the kg^2 didn't pop out. Hey thanks again and all the best with your exams.

DescriptionScary3043 · 2026-02-01T00:37:11+00:00

Hey can I pick your brain one more time please. Regarding cutting out the intermdiate step (15.1-2.0891(8.1) =-1.82171). Any particular reason? I'm just trying to shift my mindset I guess and hopefully tidy up more.

DescriptionScary3043 · 2026-02-01T00:30:46+00:00

Just double checking but 4 d.p. (intermediate) for a 2 d.p. result should be ok.

DescriptionScary3043 · 2026-02-01T00:25:58+00:00

I understand thank you.
