I presume you are referring the the incident when the vessel hit the quay before which has been popping up on social media. Notwithstanding the fact it would almost certainly been a completely different crew back then, honestly these sorts of things (allisions with piers in strong winds etc) are...

Could be. You get a fire in the wrong place then you could black out definitely. As you say though, its all speculation until they investigate. Only people that know what happened are those on board and even they might not be sure what caused it at this point.

You are correct in that there should be lighting and various other systems on UPS (uninteruptsble power supply) batteries which should stay on, then an emergency generator should kick in to power various other systems after a set period of time. I can't remember the exact details off the top of...

Whilst true that while out at sea in open water they will be almost certainly using the autopilot and autopilots on modern vessels are very advanced, in this incident I'd be very surprised if they were in anything other than hand steering due to the confined waters. In any case, the track and...

+1 for the Duramat. I looked round various pvc tile manufacturers and they were the best priced from what I remember. They've been in a couple of years and been absolutely fine so I don't see why you'd need to pay any more.

This is very useful, thank you. We probably won't purchase till the summer so it will be interesting to see if there is any further price movement. Considered the ionic 5 and the kias but the other half doesn't like them and the VWs would be fairly similar to the Enyaq I guess. I heard they...

Anything to watch out for when looking at used Model Y's? Probably looking at a couple of years old, £35-40k. Or any other obvious alternatives? We had a look at the Enyaq and were fairly keen on it but didn't realise how far down in price Teslas have come and so went for a drive in that and...

I've got rigid piping but did have issues with condensation so I wrapped it in a few layers of that insulation sheeting you can get (the stuff that is like silver bubble wrap). Been fine ever since.

Windows have got to be one of the biggest rackets going. Partner knows someone who runs a double glazing manufacturing firm. We got our entire house (3 bed semi) re done including all windows and doors for £5k cash. Now obviously that wasn't going through the books etc however he must've been...

Been waiting a long time for this. Really hope it's good.

I once flew Sydney to Barbados. Sydney to Singapore. Get off the plane for refueling, have to dump all of your bottled water etc because they make you g back through security onto the same plane you just got off (pretty sure it was even the same seat but they wouldn't let you leave anything on...

I just like a bigger car. Also we have 2 kids and do long journeys a few times a year with a lot of luggage, pram etc. Do I absolutely need one? Probably not. I would like one though. I was looking at superb estates but she prefers the 4x4. You know how it is.

Tbf we do live in the Norfolk countryside and the roads aren't great. A lot of people have 4x4s round here and I do fancy one of some description for a bit of a change. Higher driving position, lots of storage etc. I realise I don't NEED one but by that logic I could just stick with my 2010...

Yeah there's a lot of anecdotal stuff out there which means I'm not 100% sold on one. Will probably go to go look at a few of the usual alternatives - Q7, XC90, Tourag, Kodiaq etc. I don't really know anyone personally whose has had a discovery or range rover although one of her friends has...

In the very early stages of considering one of these for the next car. Never owned an 4 x 4 before but the other half has her heart set on one. Anything in particular to look out for or be aware of? We'd probably be looking at one that is around 3-4 years old. Budget is around £30-35k. Looking...

OK I think I may have solved it. Basically after I took the last set of pictures I moved the jubilee clips slightly when I put it back on. I put the left hand clip on the other side of the lip on the black connector. I just ran a cycle and no leaks. Will keep an eye on it but hopefully its ok now...

Yeah I know it's annoying. I have been on YouTube looking at various Samsung washing machine installation videos and none of them have that connection.

Brand new washing machine. Samsung series 5+ WW80T554DAN/S1 Unfortunately I was away with work when it got put in so I'm not 100% sure what was done. Pretty sure the hose is how it comes though. You can get the exact same replacement part with what appears to be the same black bit...

Ok I've had another look, no way that black bit is coming off, I'm pretty sure its glued on. I even had it sitting in hot water there for 10 minutes, doesn't want to budge. In any case if you look inside the connection it looks like the grey bit is narrower so I don't think it is going to go any...

I used airalo in the carribean and found it very good. Not sure how competitive their USA plans are but maybe worth a look.
