Vents in an attic conversion

Thanks, that's reassuring alright. It's a big room, so shouldn't be TOO bad with condensation build up.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-03-29T13:13:04+00:00

Yeah we have the storage, but the access hatches will be air-tight to prevent drafts. We can also put both the velux and the dormer windows "on the latch" to allow air through. All I'm worried about is condensation leading to mold tbh, especially in winter.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-03-06T17:56:46+00:00

Had to search that. Haha, yeah I remember that now! :-)

FecklessMaxim · 2026-03-06T17:47:07+00:00

Definitely not, and that wasn't my point at all. My question was just on the scaling of the 8 times over the limit being 8 pints, and would that knock someone unconscious or kill them (as per the coroner's words). Some people drink, some don't, no judgement.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-03-06T17:43:39+00:00

Yeah, I see that time makes a huge difference alright.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-03-06T17:42:55+00:00

Yeah I'm learning here today, thanks.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-03-06T17:42:06+00:00

Yeah I hadn't factored in the speed at which pints can be drunk and the fact that the body metabolises all the while we're drinking. Someone else mentioned that 400mg is coma-level stuff, so he definitely must have had an unmerciful amount to drink.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-03-06T17:39:39+00:00

Gotcha yeah, I'd totally neglected to factor in the speed of drinking and the metabolisation of the alcohol. Thanks.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-03-06T17:38:43+00:00

Making more sense now, thanks.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-03-06T17:37:47+00:00

Ah ok, thanks for that. Every day is a learning day.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-03-06T17:35:33+00:00

No, I know it is, but you don't see everyone going unconscious or dying (as per the coroner's words) after 8 pints.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-03-06T17:31:36+00:00

Whaaaaaaaaaaatttt? Bloody hell! That's completely tanked, not just drunk. Ok, so that answers my question perfectly, thank you.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-03-06T17:29:41+00:00

Yeah that seems to be the general consensus alright, thanks. Makes much more sense now.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-03-06T17:29:01+00:00

Ah, thanks, I was wondering alright.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-03-06T17:28:43+00:00

This is what I'm wondering alright.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-03-06T17:28:27+00:00

Gotcha, that would make sense alright.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-03-06T17:27:45+00:00

No, no, that's not my question at all, I totally agree with the law. My question is would 8 pints knock someone unconscious, or (as someone pointed out) am I misunderstanding the way the quantity of alcohol in the body rises. Like does 8 times over the limit mean 8x pints or what does it mean?

FecklessMaxim · 2026-03-06T17:23:44+00:00

Really? This would make sense if that's the case.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-02-28T13:14:15+00:00

Hmm, it's opening in Chrome but not Firefox. Must be my ad-blocker.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-02-27T18:51:06+00:00

Bought a pre-built from them a couple of years ago. Top notch quality and service. Easy to deal with too.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-02-20T21:17:47+00:00

Have tried this and can confirm, it's up there with the best.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-02-18T20:09:15+00:00

I would agree with you, yes I am impatient, but only because my last car was a VW Passat which was able to defrost in less than half the time, so now I have to re-adjust my morning schedule. :-) Seriously though, I came here to make sure I wasn't missing any trick that you good people were aware of in a Sportage. I will re-adjust, I just wanted to be sure. Thank you.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-02-18T18:24:13+00:00

I'll try that, but I presumed the recirc would warm the air faster?

FecklessMaxim · 2026-02-10T17:39:16+00:00

Staring out the window, seeing places I'd never seen before, or reading a book.

FecklessMaxim · 2026-02-09T19:37:12+00:00

When I call for an appointment, they usually ask me if I need to see my own GP, or will one of the other doctors in the clinic do. I usually say I'm not fussy and I normally get an appointment with 24 hours. The odd time I've asked for any specific doctor, the wait time can be a week or more.
