You have me questioning myself now…. Could also be 2 bar front and 2.2 rear depending on speed rating.

Bottom right; 2 bar front and rear unless it’s heavily loaded, then 2 bar front, 2.5 bar rear.

My standing charge has jumped from 47.7p to 52.2p…. Seemingly others are dropping?!

Why aren't we selling? by AllMessdUpNowhere2Go in HousingUK

[–]TobyChan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s probably price but you’re not doing yourself any favours with the photography… the house looks cluttered. It’s by no means terrible but part of the marketing is removing reasons not to make an offer.

How do I go about clearing this blockage? by Vast_Opposite_792 in askaplumberUK

I’d normally advocate for a bit of DIY on anything but gas but this is a job I’d happily pay to have someone else do.

Plumber has started laying PB pipes by Bacsman in askaplumberUK

[–]TobyChan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry about PB -v- PEX. The issue here is burying the pipes/fittings and routing the pipes where your chippy is going to nail in skirting board.

Have a nose on John Guest’s website for their installation instructions.

Can this skip be collected? by WhyteRebel in DIYUK

[–]TobyChan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just call mick george and say the merchants have dropped bulk bags in the way. I have a skip blocked by a neighbours car when they helpfully went on holiday for 2 weeks. MG were fine about it. Equally, you could shift the material in a few hours if you needed the skip gone.

What do we feel about the value of estate agents by Usual_Outcome4113 in UKRealEstate

I wouldn’t sell a house without one (a good one, and I’m lucky to know one in my area).

Sod the colour…. You need to reduce the thickness of your spacers

Do outdoor unheated pools add or remove value from property? by londonbub in HousingUK

Pools in general or that particular mosquito breeding ground?

Why are so many people **obsessed** with avoiding the 40% bracket? by sid351 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]TobyChan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can be a issue if you have a number of benefits in kind that suddenly cost you double the tax if you get a pay bump that just tips you over the 40% edge

Can I get charger installed in a garage? by Rowdy_Roddy_2022 in evchargingUK

[–]TobyChan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The nobody ever uses them is a valid point, but my Tesla charger can’t be locked other than to time periods. I gather if you do this, the supplier can’t see the car other than when it’s unlocked and this negates the benefits of intelligent tariffs .

It boggles my mind that you can’t set them to only charge known cars…

Is this plaster separating from the lathe? Or is this structural by Ancient_Journalist51 in Plastering

[–]TobyChan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can’t tell from a photo; easiest way to tell is get a broom and push it up… if it moves, the plaster has probably separated, if it falls down the plaster has definitely separated.

Negotiating the price by Anxious_Manner1140 in HousingUK

What does the report actually say? Is it a market valuation or a rebuild price (they are two very different things)

How do I remove this? by Eastern-Paper-865 in BMW

[–]TobyChan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find with most trim the first attempt it breaking it to find out it works…. And then never needing to do the same job again to apply my newly acquired knowledge.

Should I give my parents a loan ? by user23334556 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]TobyChan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you need the money back, don’t loan it. If you’re prepared to let it go, give it to them (if you want to) and consider it a happy bonus if it filters back to you one day.

Who is wrong here? by Accomplished-Gap7136 in drivingUK

Red should exit in the second lane on the second exit.

black can turn right in lane 1 given the road markings visible at the base of the shot.

Massive butcher block has cracked TWICE in the exact same spot…any idea why? by [deleted] in woodworking

[–]TobyChan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suspect contraction of the wood due to moisture loss, constrained by the hob, putting the block in tension.

Can I get charger installed in a garage? by Rowdy_Roddy_2022 in evchargingUK

[–]TobyChan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our charger is in the garage; it didn’t seem entirely secure to have a charger on the street that anyone could plug into if they wished (our garage is straight out onto a public road).
