My room measures aprox. 5 m X 5m, and about 3.5 m tall. 3 walls are white, and 1 is a chocolate brown. I want to change it to black (I saw a bedroom with a black wall on a magazine and I loved the idea), but Im worried it will reduce the space a lot, althoguh 3 walls would remian white, and ALL the furniture is white also. Anyone here has a black wall on their bedroom, did it reduced the space? Should I paint it black? Im so undeicded with this idea.

I want to use the multi- color in the background, do I string them on the back branches or up the trunk. which looks the best, I can go either way white as background with multi out front, or all white with multi as back ground.

We have a newer 3 bedroom moble home. We have a propane furnace. At night the furnace runs non stop. I have talked to the landlord and he said that the furnace is fine and so is the thermostat. Right now it is set on 70 and it is 67 in here (according to a diffrent themometor) The furnace has not stopped running since I have been home (2.5 hrs). I have storm windows on and DOUBLE plastic. What the heck is going on here? We are always cold and are going through Propane like crazy. When the blower kicks off the burner automatically kicks right back on.

Do you live in Somerset and your sorting office is either Chip Lane, Taunton or Filton in Bristol and your mail keeps gong missing?
Do you have an email address for customer services for royal mail?
I should have had a few important letters turn up but nothing yet, found out the hospital wrote to me and I did not get the letter but my GP kindly gave me a copy. So I am now awaiting for 2 hospital appointments.
The only mail I get either say statement on it or junk mail. 75% of our post do not turn up, yep those theiving porch monkeys down in the sorting office.
So does any one have the complaints email address at the royal mail. It is not worth ringing because they just pass you around until you put the phone down!

About an hour ago, my neighbors went outside and started throwing ceramic dishes against the wall of our building. It only lasted a few minutes, and then they went back inside. Should I ask them about it, or pretend it never happened? I PROMISE, THIS IS A REAL QUESTION. THIS REALLY HAPPENED!!!

I have a small refrigerator. Some unpleasant things have gone bad in it, and since then, I've emptied it out, washed it with antibacterial soap, sprayed it with odor neutralizer, covered it in baking powder, let it air for days, and repeated. It still smelled funny, but I plugged it in and put food in it anyway. Now it smells REALLY bad- a putrid cloud of stench escapes whenever I open the door- even though I've put in baking powder and taken out any food that looks questionable.

What can be done to make it stop smelling bad?

Due to water shortage in QLD the cost of maintaining a swimming pool has risen. its an inground sal water pool with a capacity of 55000 litres. I wish to cover it up with soil, flatten the surface and put concrete on top. We then want to remove the fence that surrounded the pool and put a patio on top. I need help on how all these can be achieved with a minimum cost.

I have never had a gas stove before. I noticed tonight while cooking that sometimes the flame is blue and other times it seems to have orange tips. What causes this? Is this typical of a gas stove?

Before I contract a certified local driller, from the state's list of drillers.. is it worth spending ~$1200 to have a local HydroGeoPhysis tell me where water might be?
I had a dowser locate a spot, but thought I should back up with "science?" I understand the wells in this rural ranch area have been as shallow as 150' and as deep as 1000' with accepatable water flow

My mate had them every morning on his carpet.
Why can you never catch them?
He sealed every single crack but still they came.
Trails mainly in middle of floor giving no clues to entry and exit.
Possibly beamed down from USS enterprise.
How do you know where there coming from.
