    Just got another email warning – lots more important people copied in. In my contract it says I’m on 1 week’s notice for my 1st 6 months from the company, no mention of how much notice I would have to give so do I just assume it’s the same from me?

    Generally notice periods are reciprocal unless expressly stated in your contract

    Philips hue might be the answer to your lighting question they only do bulbs though not sockets.
    If sockets are a must then look at light wave but not tried those myself.

    I control my
    Heating (heatmiser) split into 6 zones plus dhw
    Some lighting (philips hue)
    Alarm
    Three sonos zones
    Avr
    TV
    Blu ray
    Pvr
    CCTV

    As overs have said think about installing structured cabling my media node has four drops and these are now maxed and I’ll need to add a small 4/8 port switch if I add any more networked devices there.
    I had all my structured cabling terminated in the loft where my phone line terminates so my modem, router, switch and nas devices all live up there in a small comms cab.

    fentimans tonic water is as good if not better that Fevertree imho

    On the go at the moment we have seagrams gin, Jensons bermondsey gin & Bathtub gin.
    All three are good and worth a try.

    If you’d look eat the post above mine the op has suggested connecting his laptop to the sonos via the 3.5mm line out if he used that how could he use the laptop to amplify speakers.

    Op:
    sonos now works without the bridge unit connected to a router, so if your laptop has a wifi connection you can set that up to act as a router and establish a wifi connection to any sonos units.

    As others have said if you have an existing amp and speakers then a connect will allow you to use them.
    If you have active speakers then this will also work.

    If you’ve just a set of speakers then the connect:amp would do the job.

    If you’ve got nout then get a play 1, 3 or 5 as they have built in speakers.

    We did a full renovation on our place last year.

    In the family bathroom we used Pura products which we saw at a local merchant and then brought online.
    Quality is good and keenly priced imo

    we got all the family bathroom from http://www.ukbathroomstore.co.uk/ who I phoned up and sent a email of what I wanted & got an additional discount off the web prices.

    For our shower room the wife wanted a known brand like villeroy and boch, duravit, etc.
    So ended up shopping at multiple places.
    Sanitaryware Duravit from BoundaryBathrooms.co.uk,
    Shower and tray Tapoutlet.co.uk (Part of Wolseley now closed down)
    I cant remember who we used for the shower screen

    If replacing the shower I can well recommend one of these. http://www.plumbnation.co.uk/site/mira-digital-mixer-showers/
    The valve and supply goes in the loft and the shower heads come in through the celling meaning we could position wherever we wanted and not need to drop pipe work into shower room and then conceal etc. the shower is controlled wirelessly via a puck you screw to the wall.

    A couple of thoughts,

    1) did the driver use the car? to damage the bike, cause the criminal damage if so I would expect that you could chase his insuruance via the BC and would go back to them.

    2) If not try talking to you home insurance as they often have legal cover as part of the policy and you may find they can take up the case and get the repair costs back.

    Either way hope the damage to you and bike are not so bad.

    From the op.

    The cable has been tested via a laptop and so assume it’s working ok.
    The hubs work when next to each other and a short cable is used.

    So I wonder could they be communicating via wifi and not the Ethernet cable when in proximity?

    I would switch off wifi on both hubs connect via Ethernet cable as before and then connect the laptop to the second hub, does it still connect to the internet.

    If not then back to the guide on how to set the hub up as a repeater.

    If it does then your good and should repeat the test but on the long cable run.

    If it works on the long cable run then turn on wifi at the far end and see if you can get this to work, then wifi at the source end.

    As Amazon have such a great take on returns perhaps you could try one or two of these options with you current handsets for minimal risk even if you don’t use as a final solution.

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=sr_nr_p_76_0?rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Adect+extender%2Cp_76%3A419158031&keywords=dect+extender&ie=UTF8&qid=1412069538&rnid=419157031

    I see that you can get a panasonic base, handset and extender for seventy odd quid here:

    You could use tubes and tube clamps to make something very like your original sketch. take a look here at there double clothes rail kit, else look at square section tubes and the plastic connectors

    FYI you are entitled to appoint your own loss adjusters to deal with your insurance co, in this case it may not be of sufficient value to make it financially worthwhile, if your interested google some up and give them a call they can only say no….
