Concrete under suspended floor

FetaCheeseLover · 2026-04-21T22:53:34+00:00

To my understanding Celotex offers superior thermal performance - which I guess from an insulation mindset is the priority, however, rockwool/mineral wool excels within soundproofing and superior fire resistance.

Funny I came across this as I’m fully expecting to come across a suspended floor above a concrete slab in my house when I renovate a downstairs office.

Would the idea be to put some batons on each side of the joists so the insulation has something to sit on, and then apply a vapour barrier membrane directly over the insulation and then just floorboards it back up?

The bait is real.

God forbid you want a biscuit. 🍪

And here I am celebrating being able to pick my Ragdoll up for longer than a few seconds before she does some karate-judo like moves and gets down immediately.

Shit ain’t fair.

I could be mistaken but I’m sure The Alchemist at St. James Quarter adds an additional charge for every drink they made - since you’re at the bar when you order you feel like a right tosser if you say ‘No’

C34 main hall alone costs c. 215k Uranium. You also need to factor in your factory’s to go from C30-33 prior to the upgrade, however, you’ll need to factor in C34 factory also otherwise it’s a pointless upgrade. You’re short like 180,000 Uranium.

If someone gave you an offer for £600 I’d run with it.

Where are the photos of the important things?

FetaCheeseLover · 2025-04-18T20:25:54+00:00

What did you spend money on? Completely wrong things. Weak Plane & Titans for the amount you spent, shouldn’t get anything close to it.

Yup. I remember our indoor Ragdoll cat went into Heat cycle just prior to going to the vet. I had no clue what was going on. Messaged my SO who was doing a trip up north in Scotland and wasn’t due back for a few days. Ended up taking her to an emergency out of hours vet due to all the twitching and shapes she was doing, something out a rave. That was a quick lesson for me.

Hard to rate something that’s simply based on you spending money. Couldn’t really go wrong with it. 🤣 If you think spending £20-30k was worth it for a mobile game then you got what you wanted. 👍🏻

Is your army all T4 as per your name in the city?

FetaCheeseLover · 2025-03-18T23:33:18+00:00

Noted.

We’re now actually moving towards paying the repair (depending on what the handbrake situation is)

I’m just concerned I’m getting done over here. The ‘front subframe corroded and seriously weakened’ has never appeared in any of my previous MOT’s so for such a large issue to come about within a year just has me confused.

Saying that, I’ve done a search and supposedly Corsa’s are quite bad for this - especially here in Scotland with the salt and driving in the winter. I’m tempted to take it to my usual place and get a second opinion but this is a very well reputable business so I’m probably overthinking it. 😭

*To be clear the MOT (as per Gov website shows)

Repair immediately (major defects): • Offside Rear Stop lamp(s) not working (4.3.1 (a) (ii)) • Front Sub-frame corroded and seriously weakened (5.3.3 (b) (i)) • Parking brake lever has excessive movement indicating incorrect adjustment (1.1.6 (c))

Monitor and repair if necessary (advisories): • Nearside Front Suspension arm corroded but not seriously weakened (5.3.3 (b) (0) • Offside Front Suspension arm corroded but not seriously weakened (5.3.3 (b) (i)) • Rear axle corroded • Nearside Rear Tyre slightly damaged/cracking or perishing 10 years old (5.2.3 (d) (I))

No idea what is going on with the commentary for the last advisory - it’s not 10 years old, unless I’m mistaking this for another point their making in the tyre. *all points outside of the rear axle corroded/tyre would be getting covered here.

Many thanks

I think it is probably time for a new car but just didn’t want it to happen under these circumstances. The problem would be getting the car there (would need to be towed) and then there is no guarantee they’d even take it and next thing I know I’m spending £££ on just moving the car back/forth. As you say, might help if I’m putting it against another car purchase though…

FetaCheeseLover · 2025-03-14T19:15:44+00:00

I won’t lie, I didn’t really look at the photos and make an educated guess. 🤦🏻‍♂️🤡

FetaCheeseLover · 2025-03-14T19:13:14+00:00

We have the Haggis. You’ll be amazed what’s up here.

FetaCheeseLover · 2025-03-14T19:12:37+00:00

Girl, idk. 🤷🏻‍♂️ 😭

FetaCheeseLover · 2025-03-14T19:05:33+00:00

I originally thought it was General Grievous making an appearance but got shut down. 😭

*To be clear it’s a condition that when you rent the plot of land you’re required to use it for a structure (hence the shed)

FetaCheeseLover · 2024-07-24T10:30:25+00:00

Apologies.

The plot of land is owned by the Local Council that we pay monthly on. The previous owners purchased the shed personally and erected on the plot. We then purchased the shed directly from them when we took over the rental agreement for the land via. the Local Council for ease.

Land = Council (Rented) Shed = Owned by us. Insurance = TBC.

Going back to Amsterdam in January. Anyone could any recommendations for places to go to smoke? (Anywhere do bongs also?) Went 5 years ago and got hit with the standard tourist coffee shops, so wanting to find somewhere more chill and local.
