    My posts deleted on “Sick of all these adverts” thread.

    I notice both my posts on SimonG’s thread have been deleted. Other members posts also removed and thread has been also locked down.

    Deal of the day Combi

    Dewalt 18 volt brushless combi and 2 of 3.0 Ah batteries for £129.99 inc vat on Screwfix deal of day. Seems good price considering you get 2 batteries. Perhaps not a fully Pro drill, but might be of interest for those on a budget.

    Condense discharge - no easy solution

    This is a common problem where I have to install a condensing boiler and there is nowhere to discharge the condense. I have an oil boiler to install in a garage and there is only a rainwater gulley close by. To install a condense trap in the ground is too much work. I am thinking of using...

    TRVs - their Purpose and Function

    Sorry if this appears to be a simplistic question, but not as easy to answer perhaps as we think. It is to settle an argument. As the title says, - what are TRVs supposed to do in all respects and what way do they operate?

    Jobs following other plumbers work?

    I seem to be getting ridiculous callouts nowadays. Today I finally got to a leaking stopcock job that the house owner has been chasing me to fix.

    Martin McGuinness dead

    I won't celebrate the illness and death of Martin, nor would I wish it on anyone. Sympathy to his family, but they can be thankful at least they got to prepare for his death and no doubt got to say goodbye, unlike most of the relatives of IRA victims. Also he reached 66 years, unlike most...
