Jesus, what’s doing their hot water????!!! Average invented cylinder is usually 120-150l in an ordinary house, maybe up to 250 or so in bigger places. At 1100 litres it’ll need a huge amount of hot water input and probably need a circulating heater like a hot tub just to maintain temperature

I agree with all the comments of how this reflects poorly on Sturgeon. I doubt the full extent of her knowledge will ever come out however, no matter how hard people dig.

There is a frustrating thing in much of Scotland whereby she seems to be considered saintly and entirely beyond criticism ...

Yes it really sounds like its stretching the concept of a "bath" as opposed to a (still quite large) plunge pool.

sounds thrilling

If that's reflectopron in the far away window, thank goodness for that horizontal window frame element.

I did have to find the original image on my iphone to zoom in to check as it does look suspiciously like a naked torso but safe to say I am wearing clothes!!

Thanks - it actually isn't saying it dislikes the room ratio - simply that I'm not complying with this rule... "Avoid 50% room length/width (null points). Sweet spot at 38% from front wall:2.85 m"

When this says 2.85m from front wall I presume that means the wall the speakers are on?

mode response on long/narrow rooms is a pain.
Moving your speakers closer, with a big gap from the rear wall can make a surprising difference, but two subwoofers correctly positions is probably the answer!

Have a read of the Cedia RP22 book - all the maths is pretty straightforward.

Sounds like a fun opportunity to try new kit. If you're not going to enjoy that process then just a get a soundbar :lol:


Ha yes it is - problem is more the $$$ it is going to involve and I have concerns that if the room is unfixable I've just chucked loads of money at something without making ...

No I do need a rug - there are going to be a lot of reflections from the in-built cupboard doors in the shelving either side of the speakers though, plus the rug won't do anything for the bass issue.

Batshit crazy story of the day...

So apparently Porsche dealers owned by Porsche GB cannot renew warranties over the phone and you've got to go into the dealership (40 mins away from me) to sign the renewal documents in person...

So Mid-Sussex are doing it for me over the phone and also quoting ...

the business jet

So I'm in a bit of a quandry since moving house - ironically the old lounge was almost a perfect cube so had big bass resonance issues and was below the master bedroom so anything above a mouse's fart elicited banging on the ceiling from my wife...

Now I have a room way away from the bedrooms and ...

I would guess it was not recessed enough on the old wheel as the previous emblem was just embossed - it would therefore have sat proud, that's why he replaced the whole centre section including foam backing.

Anyway, I'm not a fan of crests in Porsche's of that era as they always scream to me of the ...

Nice work. M5 buddies.

Sorry - yes you're right - inline 6. I don't particularly fancy being a guinea pig on the Ingenium stuff but then again, my dad has just got a new discovery with that engine so maybe I'll watch and see how that performs over the next 18 months. He seemed to think it was more refined than the prior ...

This whole episode is extremely hilarious.

Some of the purchases are quite off the wall - £3,500 on silver wine coasters.

I also like that he said the motorhome was intended to be campaign headquarters... canvassing by the side of Loch Lomond with a fishing rod in hand I'm sure...

I think part of the reason people are probably slowing down on the changes is simply that residuals of newer models seem to be particularly firm.

I was checking in again on the L460 Range Rovers and for something I'd want (not a basic spec SE) they seem to be mid 70s whereas mine when I bought it ...

I would have posted this as an update to my Evora "new car" thread, but - as that's not on this forum - the fleet update will need to do.

Accepting this is no biggy to many on the forum, I’ve now owned the Evora for <subdued drum roll> 10 years. It has therefore become my first ever DECADER ...
