    Intermittent speedo when driving, affects MPG

    Good ol' French electrics. If the speedo/odo says no distance is travelling, but you're actually using enough fuel per second to maintain 30-70mph, it's going to decrease a lot as it thinks you're doing zero miles for x gallons. ;)

    Air Con Suddently not working

    This. Maybe a stone has punctured the condenser rad, and your gases have escaped. Or, the relay has had it. Check fuses and relays. However, I'd get to someone who knows their AC units - KwikFit (wouldn't be my recommendation) or a 'specialist' AC person who might even come to you if...

    Best SLR or Similar for £450

    Standard issue answer coming up - Go into Jessops / Currys / John Lewis and (get the GF to) play around with cameras in your budget. There's literally no right answer until you've got a feel for them. :o

    172 cup traction/control ESP?

    My first pressure washer - need some advice

    You'll need a tap adaptor. Proper PITA those are. Had one at an old house. Really really awful. Generally filled the entire room with a shower of rain every f**king time no matter if someone was there to guard it or not. You'll also need a snow-foam lance, from CYC or i4D for instance.
