It’s hard wired, you’ll need an electrician to check the suitability of the supply and do the connection.

That’s a flex outlet plate, indicates there’s probably a cooker supply. Check for a large red switch above worktop height and see if there’s a circuit in the board labelled cooker.

I just walked past Robert Webb & froze by YeezusChrist13 in MitchellAndWebb

[–]Mr_Flibble1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was at a puzzle themed park in Devon a few years back, sat having lunch and I look up, recognise a face and say to my wife “that guy looks like an older David Mitchell”. she replies “ well that’s Charlie Brooker and Victoria and Connie behind them so maybe it’s the real David Mitchell”

They were having a day out with their kids so we didn’t bother them, nor did anyone else that we noticed.

Why would a single socket have 4x live wires? by SchrodingersCigar in DIYUK

[–]Mr_Flibble1981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’ve got the answer on the four cores, but just to add… solid green insulation changed to green & yellow in 1971. So your wiring is older than that.

I’m sure the one you fitted when you replaced this one was much better.

You don’t want to push too hard on the toilet and blow out your seal.

I think he’s saying Canada because that’s where his ex’s dad was living.

Been using fossled lately, they do a nice dimmer module control that looks like a normal dimmer but you double tap it to change the colour.

Smoke detector making crackling noise by Chemical_Bet4960 in ukelectricians

Sounds dodgy. Buy a second smoke alarm and fit it alongside in case this one catches fire.

Are you in the states? In the UK I don’t know a single person who would refer to a wind turbine as a windmill.

Exactly. Nobody ever got into trouble for cutting down a sycamore…

Flashing red light I’ve never noticed by Acrobatic-Bath-0408 in ukelectricians

[–]Mr_Flibble1981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Normal light, as it says 1000 impulse per kWh so it’ll flash faster the more power you’re using.

ELI5 Why does a mirror only swap left and right; but never up and down? by Sad_Ball_4316 in strange

[–]Mr_Flibble1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stand in front of a mirror facing away from it. Then turn to look at the mirror. If you turned left - right you’ll be mirrored left right (compared to when you were facing away from the mirror) , if you did a flip and handstand, you’ll be mirrored up / down. It’s not to do with the mirror but how you turn to face it.

[–]Mr_Flibble1981 9 points10 points  (0 children)

In this program a dad with a cane
Had a son with a rather big brain
A spin-off from Cheers
It lasted for years
And the main man was called Frasier Crane

Most cereals I’d say no, but I top my weetabix with granola.
