Hi all
I’m a newbie here so please be gentle 😇
I’m in uk and recently bought a house with a few plumbing issues and hope that this forum can help me sort them out

Hello everyone, so I've decided to embark on my journey to becoming a qualified plumber. However, i am unsure if these training courses and providers are legit. My brother had an experience a few years ago that turned to be a scam. The company name is 24/7 Training UK. Weekly payments of 45 quid...
As recommended by the welcome email, hello all, my name is James Pirie and I am not a plumber but a keen DIY enthusiast mostly due to the severe lack of plumbers available in our area of the North West of Sutherland in Scotland.

Does anyone know the model and make?
1, Is it close-coupled only or can it be converted to free standing above bowl?
2, Which close-coupled toilet bowls is this compatible with? A wide selection or just one bowl?
3, Modern cisterns like...
Welcome again!
I'm 45, a Registered Adult nurse working in busy, acute medical wards. At work, I almost constantly deal with fluids and tiny pipeworks: IV, subcut, veins, ports, midlines, cannulas, oral, and nasogastric.. Yay..
Yet, after Covid19 something started to slowly break down at me...
