Sorry, but the logic is flawed.  I don't have central heating!

For our antipodean visitors I should have pointed out that the advantages of hard pipework over soft naturally would apply to air conditioning systems also.

Did you know that if you swop the wires around supplying power to your AC system you should be able to get central heating? But make sure you check this out with your AC engineer first so that he can stare at you in amazement.

I've been trying to think of something that's better soft than hard.  Ummm...

Moving right along, two structure fires last week.  #1 was cooking left unattended, caught fire, fire spread rapidy to the walls (had they ever been cleaned?), through a hole in the wall into the framwork (brick veneer house).  So instead of the stove fire we were paged to we had a building fire.  Held to one room which was good.  

#2 was more cooking left alone, hot oil caught fire.  The residents managed to extinquish it before we arrived.  The beauty of working smoke alarms.  And two males who both refused any assistance despite coughing madly from smoke inhalation (shrug).  I made sure that the last bit made it into the incident report.

Again, it's the "it'll never happen to me" syndrome.

Thanks for all the responses some very much to the point but whether it would prevent this problem I doubt. I am afraid its “I will never happen to me” syndrome.

All my responses only apply to England and Wales and they are an overview of the subject, hopefully it will point you in the right direction and always treat with caution.

Never one to be racist, but you can't beat Scottish fish and chips.

I disagree Colin,  Welsh fish and chips are far superior.

What about a Belfast fish supper - usually in a bap?

Pembrokeshire spuds are the best

Question is, what oil should one use?

Amatuers, the lot of you.  King Edwards, cut chunky and thick, blanched then deep fried in beef dripping (just to get the arteries furred up).  Fat slabs of Cod or Haddock in a batter of your choice, again into the deep fryer with vegetable oil until it's crispy and light golden brown.

Mermaid Fish Restaurant, Batley...and that's from a Lancashire lad!
