    Any one fit a carpet?

    We just had Tapi fit a carpet in kids bedroom and actually thought the fitting costs were very reasonable. Remove and dispose of existing carpet, fit new underlay and new carpet. Two of them turned up and had it done in under 45 mins. Paid £87 directly to the fitter which considering it would...

    Sea of Stars - 8/10 What a brilliant little indie title which really evokes the nostalgia of classic sprite based JRPGs of the 90s. Yes, the battles were pretty easy and repetitive by the end, and it was missing some of the mechanics of modern RPGs. But, the art style was great and the...

    Options for monitoring front grass area

    Also poisonous to cats, no? OP could well end up with cat poo, cat vomit and possibly cat carcasses on his front lawn which would be worse... We had a similar problem with cats on our estate. Tried citrus sprays and electric deterrants which did nothing, even left our indoor cat poop out for a...

    Nier Replicant PS4 - 7/10 Really enjoyed this one. Story was bonkers and it a bit repetitive replaying to get each of the 5 endings but the characters were great and the dialoge brilliant in places. Nice to get some of the background to Automata too. /Salsa

    Replacement for Samsung QE55Q90R QLED (2019)

    So my toddler managed to take out the screen on my Q90R QLED this afternoon with a well placed toy car. Screen is busted and im a sad panda :( On the bright side, I now need a new TV which is always nice. What would be a reasonable replacement for the Q90R? I loved the anti reflective filter...

    Expectations of child services

    This story really got to me to me today. I havent cried in years but I did thinking about this poor kids last days on my drive home to see my son this evening. Like you, I've had similar dreams recently where something has happened to me and my toddler has been left to fend for himself and its...

    Hmrc - ebay/airbnb/vinted etc new rules - 1st Jan 2024

    MM specifically excludes trading and profiteering (or it did when I last used it). Since they don't actually have any involvement with the payments or transactions then I think MM will be safe for the hadful of people who still have access and use it... /Salsa

    Death

    I think about it every so often but can't really wrap my head around the finality of it all. I'm not afraid of it per se, it's going to happen and in many ways the certainty that it is going to happen is a comfort. I won't be sad since I wont 'be' and life will go on without me just fine. I just...

    Anyone here bought a Google photo book before?

    The google photo books are pretty restrictive in terms of layouts and the editor is surprisingly basic. The one major plus point is your photos are already there, no need to re-upload to a 3rd party. The quality is reasonable but they tend to be expensive. There are better options out there...

    Books vs Kindle

    I've tried really hard to get into my Kindle this year. Got a paperwhite for Christmas and have read 15-20 books on it, but I still much prefer a real book. Something about the tactile nature of a book, the feel of the paper the smell of the ink even the font used all add to the experience. I...

    Heat pump dryers - worth it?

    For the kids clothes our Horpoint has been amazing. Yes it takes around 2-3 hours depending on the load, but it doesnt shrink clothes like our old one and the energy cost is less than 1/4 of our old condenser. It does take noticeably longer for larger loads like towels and bedding but if you do...

    Woo-hoo, the clocks go back to GMT this weekend!

    Used to love the extra hour in bed but not so much now we have kids. Clocks going back just means they wake up at 5am instead of 6am :( /Salsa

    Shed / Garden Hoover

    Another Titan user here and I've used it for everything from cars, garage floor, patio, sand pit and even the hot tub. It's never missed a beat and switching the filters for wet/dry is a doddle. I've got a Karcher pressure washer and while it has a more premium feel, the Titan is not horrible in...

    Haha, thats an impressive cleanup job - thanks! I'll try it and see how long it takes her to notice! Don't suppose you have a version with the original background though, to save my *** if she does spot it. ;) OCUK does not disappoint as usual! /Salsa

    Photoshop Help

    I'm looking for some help restoring a photo for my wife which our cat has destroyed. It's the last photo of my wife and her grandfather and had been sitting on a shelf when our cat took a dislike to it this week and tore it in half. I've had a go at using some online tools to restore myself...

    Alan Wake Remastered - 8/10. So atmospheric and the combat mechanics, while a bit clunky, added to the dark tension. Hard to believe it was a XBOX 360 title originally as it holds up well. Followed up with Control and all the DLC - 10/10. Most fun I've had in years playing my PS4. Combat...

    ! Ironing question !

    Depends on the garment surely... Sharp edge for napkins, rolled edge for boxers. Sharp edge boxers are just uncomfortable! /Salsa
