If that gutter stops well shy of the wall (like it appears to) there may be a load of water spouting vaguely in the direction of the header of your window.
But not if it’s happening when there’s no rain… (I mention this as I’ve had customers telling me their roof is leaking, only for me to point out that it hadn’t rained in two weeks…)
-
Actually, what’s going on here:
-
Even with a hole in the wall above I'd not expect a localised amount of water like that (even on the assumption it's not a cavity wall).
Is the water apparent only when it's raining, and with a particular wind direction?
Or is the water apparent even when it hasn't been raining? Which would suggest a leaking radiator or water supply above? -
What is above there? Another floor/flat roof/pitched roof?

He should stick to what he's good at (bullying and cooking?); leave the risk analysis to those who know about it
-
Ventilation is needed.
Those bricks are below the damp course by the looks of things so will always be susceptible to moisture seeping through. -
Totally fine if done properly, none of my work is a bodge thank you very much!
-
Take all the door stops off first.
Make the hinge holes in the door lining match the ones in the door, not the other way round.
Buy a box of matches and some decent screws. -
They were dark days. At no point in the future will I do anything like that again.

I'm assuming he's flexing some classic dry British humour here...

Dunno about sealant but i got into sewing up punctured tubs a few years back.
A right fucking hassle. But technically not difficult and rather satisfying.
Always had the tubs off as they had been swapped as lesterama describes; I used normal patches as i wasn't using posh tubs and they were fine. -
He really is one of the worst examples of a human. Can't he just die?

Blimey! I'd have to sell my children to enable that sort of journey.
Now there's a thought...
-
Thank you - I'll take a look, i might be able to lose an hour or two on there!

I'm 2nd tier all the way! But i take your point, it's probably a wiser approach.
Surely even if I'm buying fairly middle of the road parts it'll take a few years before obsolescence kicks in?

Hi all,
I want to build a PC slowly over the next year so that it can run Windows 11 and run fairly demanding games for my kids.Current one can just about run Minecraft + any random mods the boys chuck at it, as it has a GPU (it's a small tower so limited on GPU physical size), but it's too old to upgrade the hardware for the next windows.
Where shall i start? What shall i read/research?
And what do i need to watch out for as i assume it's not as straightforward as joining all the bits together correctly and then turning it on?I've done lots of easy stuff like installed GPU, upgraded RAM, swapped HDDs for SSDs, installed extra drives, so i think it's ok to suggest I'm fairly handy with this sort of thing, but totally ignorant on pitfalls and techniques etc.
I'm doing it slowly as i will be bargain hunting along the way as I have very very low disposable income hooray. I don't need peripherals, I'll use what I've got until I'm forced to replace them.
Any help appreciated

"“it is a disgrace that we are trailing behind Labour, led by Keir Starmer who has the charisma of a peanut, who is overseeing a rabble of hard-left maniacs, who would undo Brexit, who would open our border and who would indoctrinate our institutions and our schools with politically-correct madness.”
Kuenssberg asked her: “Do you regret backing Rishi Sunak?”
“Honestly?” She paused. “Yes I do, because I had assurances from Rishi Sunak that he was going to put a cap on illegal migration that he was going to do something about the European Convention on Human Rights, that he was going to do something about the transgender ideology in schools."
God, Braverman is just virulent

I think that's the Tory mantra

I hope you're right, but it worries me that between her and the usual complacent muppets (media chiefs/braindead voters/Labour leaders) the flavour of the discourse will be allowed to coast further to the right, leaving us even more properly in the shit
-
Oh good grief, Braverman's making a blatant leadership bid. God forbid we end up with that bigot as the opposition leader

Rat-faced cunt destroys people's lives so he can have an easier week at work

It might be ok, hard to tell from the pic. But 100% of the substantial amount of water that comes down the vertical wall adjacent to the roof needs to be going in that gutter - either directly or via some leadwork.
So it definitely needs a proper look!
But my money is still on leaky plumbing in the flat above...
