building regs (well NHBC tech standards) for fixing a wall plate strap into masonry specify a no.12 wood screw which is 7/32 inches (5.6mm) at 50mm which you can probably just about buy but its a struggle and then specify 'suitable rawl plugs'. Which you can't.

thats a 6mm screw, not a no.12 (5.5mm) screw

and a 6mm rawlplug at 30 mm

expert advice says you need a 7mm(brown) rawlplug for 5 or 5.5mm screws, god knows what a !!! 6mm!!! screw would need. but certainly the 30mm is a stumbling block.

I have so had enough of it

Lol. I'm a spurs fan, everytime I get in the car on a match day, it excitedly like a puppy, plots the route to white Hart lane and tries to set off.

Yeah ok, it would probably end up awkwardly poked into the first hedge at the end of the road without me there to watch over it, but c'mon, how can you not find that kind of child like hope and naivety endearing?

Things can only get better.

When you do a click and collect order from wickes and choose to check out as a guest, it asks you to give the first line of your address. As you type this in, the autocomplete box appears with a whole bunch of suggested addresses. Is this everyone else who has ever guest shopped at wickes addresses? That seems a bit bad.

but i tested it with my old address that I don't think i had ordered from wickes but is definitely like on the royal mail main list and it wasn't on this autocomplete list.

Jedit posted:

Have you put your postcode in at any point?

no

example:



I think there are more than the like 12 addresses there in the country with "10" in them, why those ones only are suggested? I suppose they've all got 10 in then twice, the most 10est addresses but still something is off.

OK, yeah, that's definitely a security breach. Get that poo poo reported.

I've tried some more and actually I think its just weird and only ever suggests 10 addresses and is a bit weird about how it chooses them. I won't burn wickes to the ground on this one yet. But I'm watching them.

Well 2.5 hours later Wickes haven't picked my order, there's no paperwork, the guy can't login cos he doesn't know the password and the guy that does has dirty hands. The wood is just sitting on the shelf but I've already paid for it.

It's weird that one person's position, positions these people come and go from every 15 mins anyway, is something they seem bothered about bargaining over with something that would have much bigger ramifications and they would surely either support or not support regardless of what Ed is doing.
