2 AnswersFriends7 years agoWhy glass wine bottles?
My wife and I drink wine. We used to have a problem with the cork. Corked wine and the struggle etc. but since the screw top all is O.K.
Now I cannot see why everyday drinking wine that we have has to be in glass bottles.
Why not plastic bottles as water bottles?
Taking the glass bottles to the bottle bank I don't need. I would rather put them in the recycling bin.
Glass is dangerous.
Hope to get some input.

5 AnswersBeer, Wine & Spirits8 years agoWhy did car manufacturers fit ABS. to their cars.?
Hi.
ABS.was designed for articulated lorries to prevent jackknifing.
All it has done is to give the motorist an expensive unecessary expense. Particulary in the failure of the reluctore ring which is a £15.00 item which costs hundreds to replace. I suppose that is their game to use problematic systems that cost the motorist dearly. Cars have aways run perfectly well without ABS. but now the motorist is being severely punished.

I contacted a large mobile home outfit and and all that the young woman could tell me was that it was because of the local council.

3 AnswersEngineering1 decade agoGroin strains. What is going on.?
A few questions.
Footballers are falling lame with groin strains.
I think that Spurs have 5 players out with this complaint at this moment.
What is a groin strain?
Why do footballers suffer from it?
How do they get it?
Why can it not be treated?
They have sent their players to the best specialists in Britain, Europe and now America and yet they have players who have been unavailable since last year.
I guess I will have to put this question in the medical and football sections.
If it has been asked before then I apologise but I haven't seen it.

6 AnswersCommuting1 decade agoWhere can I purchase flat plate solar panels in the South of England.?
I need to buy a flat plate solar panel for a water heating solar system that I have planned for my bungalow on the South Coast. When I go on the the web. their are hundreds of sites offering panels of this type but when you log on they only offer complete kits or free quotations to install. I don't need this as I am quite capable of building my own kit and installing it. I intend to start with one panel around 2m. square and add others later.
Hope you can help.
