I can verify that it is much the same down in Devon

I'm just grateful that I didn't have to carry out the research that found this out.

You may need to save it to jpeg format as many forums and windows programs do not recognise the heic format used by default on Apple devices.

Most installers and reviewers reckon that a boiler is good for about 10 - 12 years, so if you're getting significantly more than this you're doing well though the latest boilers will be more efficient. Also agree that Worcester-Bosch are best as they regularly top reliability charts (eg Which?)...

Five Ways Hi-Fidelity if that's who you mean. They were certainly there in the 70s and stocked many of the main makes then and AVI came along later.

That's an interesting comment as I've found that active speakers do seem to preserve their sound quality better than amp/passive speakers at low volumes. I'm not sure why that is but possibly due to the lower level of distortion with direct connection of the amplifiers to each drive unit...

Looking at the heading, I thought you were changing passwords frequently (weekly) but now realise you mean weak.

I liked the guy who said if anyone wanted to know what was on he's got a copy of the Radio Times from 1980.

Looking at those connections and assuming the OP's are similar, there is a pre out which while not as good as a fixed output could be used for recording. It would need to have the volume on the receiver set to probably a middle level and the recorder making final adjustment. Some experiment with...

I think you do have to be very careful but there are some genuine bargains if you do proper checks. In my case I got my wife a new Google Pixel 9a phone for £249 with interest free payments via Klarna. Although the price had fallen from the original £499 all other sellers I could find were...

Integrated circuit

The only thing to check easily would be the valves especially, as others have mentioned, whether there is some corrosion on the sockets and pins. Simply ease each valve out of its socket and reinsert two or three times and then check if it has made a difference. You can carefully clean the valve...

On Ebay at the moment there are UK versions of this for sale at about the same price as those from Japan. If buying a Japanese one then you have to buy a suitable transformer (and trust you've got the right one), possibly have to pay customs duties and have a problem if it's not working or as...
