  4. Curious now. I thought batteries gassing during charging produced H2. Are you saying the gas is actually H2S always, whenever the little bubbles are forming during normal charging? Or is it only H2S during 'abnormal' charging? If the latter when dos it change over to H2S? I am also under the impression a CO detector will detect and sound if both H2 and H2S in enough concentration get into the sensor. Thanks.
  5. On many boats one can loosely judge how full the tank is by looking at the waterline at the bow.
  6. So you have succeeded in filling with a jerry can previously? How do you know the tank is not already full? If it is already full this would fully explain why more water won't go in.
  7. People here do get frustrated when the questions they ask are ignored. I'll repeat David Mack's question. How do you know your tank is not already full?
  8. Star rating? Mine get "Letter" ratings i.e. A, B, C etc. But mebbe this still reflects running costs. Nobody cares, they still want the house they want. Nobody ever rejected a cute country cottage because it was rated D and they wanted one rated C or better. The house you want is rated at whatever it is, take it or leave it. Most take it. The whole thing is a money-wasting job creation scheme dreamed up by that idiot Prescott.

  10. Looks like my prediction back near the start of Whitsun bank holiday for the re-opening is gonna be about right!
  11. Many years ago a good friend of mine subscribed to "Osteopath Monthly" magazine. He says he has a lot of back issues.

  15. WHAT is that?!!!! Is it a really big rat or a really small bloke holding it?
  16. Surely the reason is obvious, but Team Mod has asked us to stop pointing it out actually in the threads.

  19. Were I that farmer up at the top, I'd be arguing that my land would not have slipped away had CRT's predecessors not carved out that channel for the canal. Maybe CRT's argument back would be it wasn't them did it!

  21. Oh, so THAT is why the original line of the canal was so wavey!!
  22. And quite right too. Powerful as Crown Estates might be, they didn't erode coast with spades or diggers. I think you can blame the sea for that.
  23. I'm sure they will be. The law here AIUI, is that if a person digs away the soil on his land he is responsible for providing support to the neighbour's soil. He or she cannot just allow the neighbour's land to collapse or subside as a result of their excavations. So CRT could be on the hook for many more £millions to support the land at the top, beyond just the cost of digging the mud out of the cut.
