I just wanna know whether bio-degradable plastic bags the same as compostable plastic bags? Do they take the same amount of time to compost if so. How long will it take?

a floating shelf? http://www.argos.co.uk/wcsstore/argos/images/8758866AE04UC97320M.jpg

I want it to be secure, as i am going to keep throwing knives in there, so it has to have a lock, and it has to look like a normal shelf.

possibly make it with the bottom on special hinges so when u press a catch release button on the side, the bottom pops open and reveals the knives.

Anyone seen Mr and Mrs Smith? kinda like the cooker, just less high tech!

BT are trying to charge me £135 for what they say was a power surge. Nothing else has been affected in my home. I just couldn't receive calls although I could make them. The engineer said it was a faulty box which he changed. They also said I was advised of charges (Iwasn't) How do I prove I didn't have a power surge?

My stove went out, and im short on cash. Because the lights go on, I have hope that I myself can fix the problem of things not heating up. I am assuming its a fuse somewhere, or a short. There was a dead mouse in the back of the stove when I opened her up, and it was fresh so I assume it shorted something out.

Instead of buying a new stove, or getting repairs that would for sure cost nearly as much as a new stove, I would like to try to do things myself. INside, things look incredibly simple (wiring wise), but I cannot find anything visibly burnt out, and I cannot find any fuse.

Can anyone help me locate where the fuse is, recomend a site to help me fix this ge stove, or give a recomendation on what else the problem may be?

Again, its a 15 year old GE stove (electric).
Any help is greatly appreciated. Much thanks in advance.

We're told by experts to save costs, by turning central heating thermo down one degree and this will save us 10% on our heating bill.

Ok. Weve got all the tiles off the bathroom wall, and have found the wall behind is chipboard sort of stuff, and its damp. Obviously the previous lot of tiles let some water in, what is the best thing to do now?

Should I let the wall dry out? Any ideas on how to help this speed along?

Or does the wall need replacing?

When I re-tile, im going to tile further up the wall and put some sealant round this time!
