  11. you have obviously turned the water off when youve done that open a tap to release pressure then turn fitting half a turn anti clockwise but dont turn it till it gets tight or you wont be able to push the plastic washer top towards the fitting then pulling the pipe out whilst holding the washer in as blackwrose says if the insert if fitted stays in the fitting you can do as is suggested but if you cant get pliers in just keep turning fitting anti clockwise until it comes off just make sure you keep the blue ring and the black ring and put back in same order as you removed it put in new insert and put piope back into fitting making sure you push hard enough for pipe to be seated fully then turn nut clockwise job done

He doesnt walk his dog past our house anymore surprise

    Axes

    rough neck kindling splitter about £18 also roughneck wood bomb about a tenner dont wish to appear rude but the most important thing is learn how to sharpen it correctly and like all hand tools will make your work a lot easier even a cheap axe with wooden handle sharpend correctly will work good and the good thing is sharpening wont cost you money

    Cross beds

    any chance of a piccy
  22. also i think im right that people who have pacemakers fitted cant use the induction system
  23. you could connect a Y fitting run hot pipe to one end cold to other and washing machine to single end put taps where you can easily turn on and off and hey presto if the water doesnt over balance its pressure you might be able to run at about 30 degrees by getting the mix right
