• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

    Beware of Amazon changes

    Definitely stupid. Amazon used to be my GoTo. Not any more.

    Festool Domino scare

    Had a warranty repair on our freezer today. Turned out that the plug...one of those moulded ones..had had some water on it and which had got inside it. "That's the trouble with these" he said "once the water gets in it has nowhere to go"

    Beware of Amazon changes

    You can no longer hide items from your orders list by archiving them. So if you're doing some Christmas present shopping then make sure no-one is looking over your shoulder. Or if you're simply searching for an old item to re-order and so scrolling down your list, it's all there to view by...

    Tiny Workshop Shed meets Ambitious Upgrade Project

    Yebbut…being a pedant. The Regs don’t discriminate, do they, whether they are accessible or not re cable grip etc. Having said that I think a lot of it’s overkill and much is directly down to lobbying by the manufacturers.

    Tiny Workshop Shed meets Ambitious Upgrade Project

    You’ve made a lot of unnecessary work for yourself by combining old-school brown round containers and the more modern and Regs accepted Wago style maintenance free connectors. Pointless IMO.

    Subsidence

    We’ve decided to stop all work on the property. Just so they can’t use that as an excuse not to pay up but also because we have no idea what the spread and impact of any remedial work will be. This evening I noticed many, many more cracks in other parts of the building internally. As the...

    Fireangel fire alarms

    This company has a very good reputation and used by many fire authorities. They have a very wide range but what I think is of interest is that a new range is coming out and they are discounted. For example https://www.fireangel.co.uk/products/fa8720bw-r/ There are heat, smoke, combined heat...

    What I have fixed today

    😀 It’s the reflection of the sky in the film of water on the EDPM ! Thank you for trying my little teaser. The roof is relatively thin and even with Kingspan in between the ‘rafters’, after some rain and for a long time there is a steady and annoying flow of drips onto that lower roof and...

    What I have fixed today

    Not to slow down the flow but to reduce the effect of another characteristic of water flow.....

    What I have fixed today

    Newish. But the fix is those slabs (and they're not there to keep the membrane down !)

    What I have fixed today

    This is my latest fix. But what exactly needed fixing ?

    2 lessons learned today.

    Mine hasn't driven for over a year. Lanes are too narrow :eek: You wouldn't get me buying their 'fresh' fish in a month of Sundays. Certainly not from our branch 'cos you can smell the fish counter half way down the shop. As it happens, I was asking one of the staff where Kefalonian sea...

    2 lessons learned today.

    When I had my thumb steroid injection, the consultant also had a good wiggle and prod around. But even then he warned that it ‘might hurt a bit’. It did but Stoic is my middle name, so much so that he complimented me 😀 As for shopping I do the grocery shop and don’t mind it one little bit...
