Everyone seems to like the design as a whole, I'll adjust the font and move the RLFans part up and we're probably ready for GML to ask admin to change it.

Sandra, are they mains voltage (230v) operated smoke detectors? You can remove them from their base, usually you have to push a flat tipped screwdriver into a slot and the detector will slide away, some get their power from pins in the base and won't need anything disconnecting, others have a power ribbon that will just need to be pulled out. If you remove the one that's had water in it, it will shut the others up. If your lucky this will dry out on a radiator, they have a backup battery in them that cannot be removed and will usually chirp when removed from their base in a fault condition.

If you can show me a picture of it I'll tell you where to get a replacement

No probs

Yeah, I've sorted it now.

Pulled the offending one out and removed the little rectangular battery, disconnected from the mains and put some of those little plastic terminal things on so that ones isolated so all the other one still work.

The good news is I'm going to have to get part of the gable end of the hose taken down and the trays behind it upgraded as well as some of the internal plastering and associated decorating redone.

It's going to need a three story scaffold at one side and two at the other so all in all it's going to cost a ruddy fortune.

Oh, guilty as charged then, talking is what I do best!

if you have the gift of the gab itsa good thing a mate of mine blagged a job running a french ski resort hotel for 6 months although he couldnt speak french and didnt have a clue about running a hotel he got away with it for 5 months

A friend of mine blagged a job doing the landscaping for the Sydney Olympics which included getting a pass for the games, he's an electrician and has never had a garden!

my mates the sort of person who if anyone wants anything doing hes says i will do for you ive done it before havent i and then we remind him but we know you havent and then he says oh yeah and continues to tell you how it can and will be done by him it does seem to work a hell of a lot though

Think I prefer it [iwith[/i the fancy pants writing.

Think the slogan may be a bit optomistic, dum-dum? And got to say Rufus makes it look tacky. Suggest Hull KR - The Robins all in the same chunky bold of the bottom suggestion. Sorry. None of my business, anyway

(You're fond of swirly writing, aren't you?)

I've taken note of your input you dark, unsightly parasite. See above edit.

Yes, I'm very fond of swirly writing, I sometimes wish they'd print books in swirly writing.

They used to, in the good old days. More, they used to hand write them in the most beautiful scripts, before printers and fonts were invented.

I don't remember, I'm [iyounger [/ithan the hills, me.
