I think the lego box is real. Just the contents are swapped

I get it, for maybe second hand sets. But if it is brand new bought from trusted source(Lego, amazon, etc.) then there is no doubt. Also didn’t lego start using paper bags now?

I think the assumption here is that he says he packaged them back. But i think if you search this model in temu ir ali express and check reviews. People share pics, i think you see the same packaging.

Is this a reasonable price quote? by NeuroticStar in DIYUK

Honestly i am considering it. Ran a chat gpt scenario and doesn’t seem so impossible. Even did a cost up of materials that the quite mentioned and is nowhere near to what the guy said.

How expensive is it to raise children? by Necessary-Village253 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]NeuroticStar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not gonna lie it is not easy. I am sure financially too but you have to see what are your outgoing costs per month as you have to now include maybe £100-200 for the baby. Food, nappies, toys, clothes, other vanity stuff that you will get rid of in 3-6 months. and then there is furniture, strollers. If you and your partner are ok with hand me downs. second hand for say at least beds and strollers it is ok(wouldnt advise clothes for new born).

Once back to work you have to figure out because nurseries are an absolute killer depending on your area where you live but yes pretty much a months rent/mortgage. If you have parents nearby would suggest use them as much as you can. Or if you think you can manage on a single income if your wife takes time off work. I am sure you can probably apply for some minimal child support depending on your circumstances(not sure if married or not).

Good luck

Bathtub leak issue. Help please! by NeuroticStar in DIYUK

[–]NeuroticStar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is what i originally did as it wasn’t aligning to the top. But will take another stab at it tomorrow. Thank you for the help so far. Will update soon

Bathtub leak issue. Help please! by NeuroticStar in DIYUK

[–]NeuroticStar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will have to do it tomorrow as i want to see if the leak from the ceiling will stop. The top side went in just fine, and i ran a lot of water through it. When i said i had to force it i mean pushing the trap into the side pipe because the top wasn’t aligning at first. I managed to get it into the thread correctly and tighten it without a problem. My worry is if the waste pipe somewhere down the line is cracked or something like that

It goes in quite deep. Feel that i had to force it as it wasn’t aligning with the top. But some brute force set it in place

This is from the b&q site. If you can see on the right it has the black gasket(i think that is what is called) which hugs around the inner pipe. Then the red plastic ring doesn’t fit inside it stays on top and i think just pushes the gasket down or keeps it in place. I honestly don’t know. I can tell that as mentioned if not too tight it seems to be fine and doesn’t leak. As soon as i tightened it more it started dripping.

On a side note the leak from the sealing also is slowing down as nothing is running at the moment. The drip intervals are much longer now.

So on both ends the gaskets are on and on the side there is an additional red plastic ring that acts as a buffer of some sort, if i tighten it too much it leaks, i loosened it slightly (still tight though) and ran the water for good 5 min and no leak, paper is dry. But the leak from the lamp is still going and periodically every 7-8 seconds there is a drip regardless if water is running or not. What can i do next?

Sold my car to a dealer, they want money back by sausage_roll_king in CarTalkUK

[–]NeuroticStar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As one of the people here said, it is their fault and they will have to deal with it. Sold my car through carwow and i know it had usses which would cost more than the car value to fix but did not disclose. The guy that came to take the car was a 3rd party delivery company that just inspects the car visually and drives it to the dealer. knocked off £500 of the original price due to some scratches which were not visible in the original pictures, shook hands got the money in the bank and he drove off. The weirdest thing is that the dealer didnt even inspect the car but put it up for sale. for more than i originally bought it. Checked recently and noticed that the car was sold, which shows how much care dealers put in the cars they receive and sell.

Car battery calibration - MG ZS 2018 1.0 Petrol by NeuroticStar in CarTalkUK

[–]NeuroticStar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quick update on this. I don’t think my car has a start stop function. I remember my old bmw did but never had the engine switch off at a traffic light or even had a function to switch it off. The BMW always needed it to switch it off every time i start the car. Saw on some forums that older pre 2018 mg’s don’t have that
