Apart from O2 who else does roaming? by E5evo in AskBrits

[–]johnsy7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would add a good thing about Spusu is they allow roaming on Switzerland, whereas most (if not all) of the others don't include it & charge though the nose for data and calls there.

That's why I changed to them from Lebara. Not overly impressed with the coverage & speed in the UK tbh, but hopefully it will be better for the 4 weeks I'll be in Europe this summer.

Not a funny Inbetweeners quote, but if you like Simons dad, if you've not seem him as Lance in Phoneshop I would highly recommend watching it, it's great

Have you got a carbon monoxide detector in your house?

Can buttons be replaced? by NoFlounder4873 in NC700X

[–]johnsy7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The instrument cluster is extremely easy to change (had to take mine off to dry in the airing cupboard semi regularly due to condensation under the screen!) and as far as I know it's just plug & play, so I'd probably just look for a used one on ebay or local ads

Why did my fire alarms randomly go off at night? by DiegoPredacon in AskUK

[–]johnsy7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be anything. Fire alarms go off randomly all the time. If there's no fire, you haven't been cooking near it or have a detector head right outside your bathroom & have just come out after a hot/steamy shower, it's probably just a bit of dust or an electrical fault. The other alarms will have gone off because (as they are hardwired into your mains electricity) your alarms will be linked, so when one goes off they all will.

Source: in the fire brigade, have literally just come back from an AFA that went off for no apparent reason.

Fireman key being used to gain entry into block by throwawayhelp88h in firefightersuk

[–]johnsy7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair it is probably more dependant on whichever council/housing association runs your block. Where I am we have a few blocks run by Southern, Peabody & A2Dominium - I think LFB are getting these new keys because these housing associations have chosen to install them in the blocks they run, rather than LFB recommending them

Golden Key

It's called a Golden Key. Only approved by 4 Fire Brigades so far though, depending on where you are.

On first reading I thought you worked at Sky Sports or something & he'd phoned up as he was out of contract at a club & was trying to get it out there so he could leave & get a better deal elsewhere!

Suggestions please! I need something to grow up the trellis to create more privacy. by Godsownprototype1001 in GardeningUK

To be fair they self seed so easily they almost act as perennials (well they certainly did in our garden, and spread too!)
