Not inconsiderable but good to hear it was not as bad as it could have been....that the Wife's car was not the VANOS wreck we had feared.
Needed a new Vanos sensor though.
...and we put a new £293 battery on there too.
Total bill £622.48

Why is the battery so expensive? Is it the one that starts the engine?...that the Wife's car was not the VANOS wreck we had feared.

...that I am running an ex-sperry-mint.
I have opened the Velux window in the roof and the loft hatch on the landing (it was like an oven up there in the loft).
My theory is that hot-air rises and so I am expecting the cooler air to sweep in downstairs and rise to the top and out of the house through the roof-window.
Does this idea float, or am I just talking testicles again?

You can but try ......... and we'll all watch.
So off to screwfix or BBQ for a new plug then

In the mean time stick a plastic food bag over the plug, it'll take up the small gaps ...
Only after the outside starts to cool off a bit, like when the sun sets ...

Not a bad idea. I have two upstairs windows open and all the downstairs ones shut and a fan going in the living room. It's 10 degrees hotter outside than it is in.

Dont fink there will be any cool air int loft to drop down. Problem is if air goes ootside, ootside air has to come in. The heat figure on the news is the temp in the shade ootside. So yer hafter expect that temp air to come in. Best fing to do is cool yer house at nite un close the windows un curtains int day. Stop hot air in downstairs rooms going upstairs.
At least it is not a Capstan "Full Strength" burned down to a nubbin. ;-)Post had just turned up on my Instagram feed.. of my 14yo nephew holding a vape
Yes could be worse but I'm worried it could be the start of a trend.. nowt i can do though
I agree. It is only something adults can "advise" on nowadays.
It's more the location and folks he'll be likely mixing with
Vaping leads to other stuff and the dark side. Careful he must be. ;-)
It's also effecting the lungs differently to tobacco ...
