I have a rather first world problem, but the pipe that feeds the filtered water dispenser and ice machine on my fridge has frozen, it runs a short distance outside. That's never happened during the day before. That's your own fault for having a fridge that's too fancy for its own good. Our fridge i...

Make sure you consider the weight of your water stash if keeping it all in one place. I'm sure you already know, but I thought it worth mentioning. It wouldn't be wise to keep a few thousand litres of water in a DIY converted loft room for example.

An awful lot of cyber attacks are designed to deprive others, rather than actually benefit from it. The best example is probably the DDoS a...

Thanks deeps, that's interesting. I'll have a proper read of the other thread.

Do you know if we could have air rifles added to an existing FAC, or whether it would be a separate certificate? I did know a licence was required in NI, but I wasn't aware it was also in Scotland. How does it work there? Is it the same as the old rules for FAC air rifles (those over 12 ft/lb)?
