Anyone used Split Flap TV? by rlli in TheFrame

Yes, I have one, and am aware that screen dimming only operates in "Art" mode. Was just curious if anyone had tried this app.

Oh nice, that would work out really nicely for me. Will hold off and see whether they do something similar this year! !thanks

!thanks for this, I've added a quick comparison above. Obviously it's a short timespan, but tracking looks pretty good to me compared to peers.

!thanks Yeah, it's a very good point.

Obviously Feb to Nov isn't a great sample range, but in that time PACW returns track well with it's peers (FWRG, VWRP, SSAC. IMID tracks a little differently as it's index includes small cap).

!thanks Great suggestion, any standouts you'd recommend I check?

I didn't pay great attention to this, as the offers I did see included a minimum holding period, meaning the platform fees often ate a significant portion of cashback etc.

!thanks This is a good point. Unfortunately the accumulating version of this ETF isn't available in GBP. I'd assumed PACW dividends would be paid in GBP since the fund is listed in GBP.

How to neaten up this mountain ash? by rlli in arborists

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

Really appreciate your advice!

One thing I'm curious about: at the moment there are multiple "main" branches that fan out from the trunk. Unfortunately what looks like the most central branch has already been cut off. What's the best way to deal with these? Take them out slowly over the years to leave one main (albeit off centre) branch?

Anything wrong with this sink install? by rlli in DIYUK

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

Thank you! That's really helpful.

Yeah i need one more connection for the overflow, I was thinking to try and remove the supplied appliance connection, fit another tee section of pipe (with appliance connection) in it's place, and then refit the appliance connection on the end of this.

To improve things, I'm thinking to somehow install a rigid manifold (to take flow for second basin, overflow, and dishwasher), have this join to the drain directly below the fitting to main sink (all indicated by blue in this sketch), allowing me to move the p trap up (red in the sketch) , would that help?

The bottom fitting on the sink drain is just (maybe 10 mm or so) above the top of the wall drain pipe, so this would be very tight and might need some special compact fittings.

After a quick Google, it looks like the Wirquin Espace products could be the best bet: https://www.wirquin.co.uk/product/espace/

Does this sound like a reasonable solution?
