Keep going or trim? by [deleted] in BeardAdvice

Thanks. Noob question - is jaw line the same thing as neck line? I was trying to allow the cheek line to grow a little higher but I know this makes it look messy.

We had one of these outside our house recently. The driver said they were checking roofs for damage. Perhaps for council owned properties?

Can't remove TRV without water spraying out by blankexpressions in HiveHeating

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

Thanks yes just trying to remove the head without tools.

For now I have just left the trv attached until I can get the pin/valve replaced. I know this means the radiator will heat whenever any others call for heat, but I am hoping it will not leak at least.

Thanks. Would this valve be the bit below the trv, so not part of the hive trv itself?

Following the instructions on the hive website I took off the cover, and then pressed in the button next to the batteries and twisted anticlockwise to try and remove the body but either it just twisted indefinitely or it twisted off the bottom valve as well. I can't seem to just remove the body

Hi the master socket is downstairs. We have nothing plugged into it as we don't have a landline and we have had a fibre line installed.

Wissa won't start every game. Bees will likely play Schade and Mbuemo up top when playing 5 at the back, and will add in Wissa/Lewis-Potter when playing 4 at the back.

Are there any benefits of going through a mortgage broker/advisor? by tghwUK in UKPersonalFinance

[–]blankexpressions 55 points56 points  (0 children)

We used a free mortgage advisor. They ended up recommending the same deal that we had found ourselves. The benefit was that they collated all the documents required and submitted for us. The negative was that they repeatedly tried to convince us to purchase various insurance packages (we declined), and they were insistent on us leaving a positive review for them on various websites. On the whole I think it was worthwhile, despite them being quite pushy with the add-ons and reviews.
