I need a Vacuum cleaner plus a carpet cleaner, anyone know if there is a dual machine? Price?

Delivery from U.K. to Sri Lanka as a 'gift' or present to avoid high local fees, also it needs to be from UK due to the power output the same as UK.

Looked at Amazon - nobody will deliver out here.

Thanks in anticipation.

I've looked on ebay & Amazon UK but just can't find a steam cleaner that is good on tiles & rugs. There's plenty to be found on the afore mentioned sites but NOBODY will deliver to Sri Lanka let alone ask them to present it as a 'gift'- if not a gift I pay 100% tax.

So do you know of a UK company that can supply me with a steam cleaner for tiles and rugs from UK who are able to deliver out here?

It has to be from UK as the electricity voltage is the same.

Many thanks. Fingers crossed someone has the answer.

I have an Apple Macbook Air. Foolishly I tried to update on OX Maverics the programme for photos, I can't view my existing photos as it's downloading, downloading is taking days, & days as the connection in this area is quite bad. So, now I wish to cancel the download and forget all about it, view my photos and get on with my business.

Have tried Apple info., / contact and just being sent in circles.

PLEASE HELP - How do I stop down loading ?? The page won't even 'restart' when I click on that.

I am very careful with my new camera but no matter how careful I am small fibers find their way onto the mirror.

The camera is kept in an airtight plastic box as there is high humidity and a lot of bacteria and dust in the air, I use the camera daily and have no mechanical problems with it.

I do not change lenses as I prefer to keep the original lens on as I does all I need, Im also afraid to clean the mirror myself as I am aware of the fatal damage I could cause.

Any advice gratefully accepted.

Thanks, H.

Is there another way to pay ebay as I have to wait for a code before payment is authorized? Paypal is not efficient & I'd rather not deal with them. Any suggestions. Thanks.

Four hours stop over in Kuwait airport. I have read so many horror stories since booking with Kuwait airlines, Kuwait airport itself, I'm now getting worried. ANY advice on traveling with Kuwait airways and if I can buy ciggs and alcohol there please. Also will they accept foreign currency in shops in the airport or must I exchange a small amount of cash?

Thanks in advance.

Cannon Powershot 150 IsO. It won't turn ON, the if it does it says change the batteries ok so I've done that. * batteries later it still won't work and says change the batteries.

The lens opens for a few seconds then slides back into the body of the camera.

I have been through all the settings twice even set it back to original settings still not use.

Please help, any suggestions I'll try.

Do you know the best hotel/resort on the beach in Bali for snorkelling? 4 or 5* hotel would be ok, with other attractions nearby too. Travel end of April into May.

Thanks,

Could someone please provide me with a phone number of Social Services in North Wales UK, for a family who needs help urgently, the numbers I've had I am just pushed from one number to another and nobody is willing to help. They need home help, assistance with mobility outside of the house etc., the family are currently struggling on their own without assistance.

In family an adult who is terminally ill, another adult who is now disabled. I am getting no answers or any help from anyone.

Thank you.

Not sure yet if I am going to get to Bewleys by road (coach) or train, from both the bus station & train station how do I get over to Bewleys, I can't walk too far with a stick and pulling a suitcase.

Thanks for any helpful suggestions.

I live outside the Europe and am registered as non resident for tax purposes. The IR say I owe them money, can they take it out of a very, very small monthly pension?

I am now disabled and claim NOTHING from the UK but they pursue me all the time.

Any advice please.

I moved from the UK to Asia nearly five years ago, I am registered as 'non resident' with the IR. I still keep a current account in the UK for a small pension to be paid into, apart from that I do not have any UK accounts, plus I left the UK totally debt free.

However, the IR is claiming I owe them less than 1,500 pounds which dispute & I refuse to pay. I am now almost disabled and unable to work claiming NOTHING from the UK whatsoever.

CAN THE IR TAKE THE MONEY OUT OF MY BANK ACCOUNT WITHOUT MY CONSENT? OR CLAIM IT FROM MY SMALL PENSION?

Thanks for your help. I am adamant they are not getting the money.

Bought a Toyota Corolla Axio, I'm pleased with it so far but the handbook/manual is printed in Japanese......I need to know:

Tyre pressures back & front

How often does it need a service

ANY help on the screen, TV, Audio, GPS etc would be helpful,,,,,where's the slot for the CD??

Of course I asked the dealer all these questions and more before purchase but he does not speak English and my Sinhalese is non existent.

Thanks for your help...........in English.

Limited as to what cleaning products I can buy in Asia, none seem to work. The limescale has built up the shower looks a mess, any ideas for cleaning.

Thanks.

I'm going crazy trying to find a decent flight from Colombo SL to Manchester UK for the end of April 2011 into May for about three weeks (return) dates are flexible. So far the cheapest I've found is Emirates for around 673 GBP, I don't mind stopping in the middle east for two hours or so but not for hours on end. Sri Lankan airlines have 'hot seat's but I can't book these until early November.

Do you know of any flights I could take that go directly from Colombo to Manchester??

I'm grateful for any help. Thanks.
