Hiya. Got a bit of a problem which I want to run past you all. My Mum often complains about things being done/vandalised in her garden. Well, she told me about someone having ripped up some plants...
I mainly use my iPad, but have a small laptop with Windows 10, 4GB of installed memory, x64 bit processor, which I occasionally use for document and PowerPoint writing. I have a 256 GB SD card that I...
Hi all! Just wondering what toppings people put on their crumpets. I have just butter, or cheese. Have had loganberry jam once or twice, but have to be in a “sweet” mood to enjoy that! What sort...
I have a beautiful female Syrian hamster who lives in a large hamster cage. I have been thinking about getting her a large parrot cage so that she has more room to go up and down, rather than the two...
Can anyone tell me what the 5 means in my Mums tax code please? I know that the L is lower rate, but surely the 5 doesn't mean that she only has a personal allowance of £50! Mum is 82, and a widow....

Seven or eight every day. They say they are from TalkTalk, but I have spoken directly to TalkTalk and they have confirmed that it's not them. I have tried to block the number, but believe it or not,...
My outlook email account is useless at the moment. The only list I can see is my inbox. I'd stop using it but so many of my friends have it to contact me. I used to be able to select a number of email...
It's only 61 days away. I absolutely love Christmas, at least, I love the atmosphere and not the commercialism. Everyone who knows me is aware that my tree and decs go up on the weekend closest to my...
I had a plain "lean to" style of full glass conservatory built at the back of the house in 2002. I'm considering changing it to one of those half brick wall types. Same size and height. My question is...
.....that are hung on the inside of your windows. Not the Plantation shutters with the "blades", but the really old fashioned type that are solid. The only way I can think to describe them would be...
About 14 yrs ago, I "papered" the plastic ceiling of my conservatory with the polystyrene on a roll. It worked brilliantly. The shading in summer reduced the heat, but provided insulation in the...
I have audio files on my pc in wma format, but need to change them to mp3 to play on my Fire 5. Does anyone know of a good free download conversion site? I've had a look at a couple, but they only...
