  1. Yer welcome. You can also use one of the many online resize sites; just Google “online photo resizer”
  2. Sure you can, you just need to ensure they’re within the site’s size limit. I forget what that is but it’s over a meg which is a pretty huge image.
  3. I just had to change the original fitment battery on my 2007 S-Type, but only because the alternator failed; so starter batteries, even on cars, can last an awful long time.
  4. Then you can’t. Unfortunately (and I know you won’t want to hear this) stick-on panels are frequently reported (both here and elsewhere) to have a very short life. I suspect they don’t much care for the very hot steel they’re attached to. Whatever the cause, they never seem to last more than a handful of years.
  5. Not just his. There are numerous threads on here that demonstrate the same.
  6. “The Narrowboat Builders Book” by Graham Booth. I don’t know when it was last updated, so some of the info might be a little dated now, but this certainly used to be ‘the bible’.
  7. I thought so, and didn't it turn out to be a non-story?
  8. Check the connections on the backs of the panels.
  9. I don't believe that CS designs anything. At least not personally.
  10. That would be far more logical so I suspect that you are correct. As I wrote to the OP, best to check with his examiner and then make his own choice.
  11. It looks like Wilko’s best but of course appearances can be deceptive.
  12. Well, reading the BSS regs certainly suggests so as my quote demonstrated. However, I bet loads of boats have their cooker connected via a flex hose without a bayonet fitting. I know WotEver was plumbed without because I changed the cooker and there wasn’t one there. I guess a phone call to your BSS Examiner will clarify what he will and will not accept. https://www.boatsafetyscheme.org/media/268789/ecp-private-boats-ed3_rev2_apr2015_public_final.pdf
  13. As a friend of mine is wont to say... “Let it develop”. If that screw gains a mate and then another then something’s about to fall off. When it does you’ll know where it came from... Could well have dropped out of a pocket, yes.
  14. You can always fix it yourself Fed up villagers in Michaelston-y-Fedw install ultrafast broadband https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-south-east-wales-44631791
  15. Not only are they permitted but it appears that they are mandated if using a flexible hose to connect a cooker. 7.9.1 reads (in part): ... pre‐made hose assemblies conforming to BS 669 may be used to connect cookers to LPG supply pipework. Such hoses usually have a red stripe running along the length of the hose but may not be marked with BS669. The connections on such hoses must terminate with self-sealing bayonet connections at the connection points to the LPG supply pipework. The portable appliance connection checks at 7.10 also apply.
  16. Gotcha. Or I could take the days in a year, subtract 5 (or 6) and divide by six...
  17. You know, I read this and thought to myself “What’s so magical about 60?” It took a while for the penny to drop. Not enough coffee I think
  18. Hello Bruce, what do you do then? I’m a taxidermist. A taxi-what-ist? A taxidermist. What the heck is one of those then Bruce? I... er, I stuff animals. Oh it’s okay lads, he’s one of us!
  19. And change your name by deed poll to Bruce?
