Sandra, are they mains voltage (230v) operated smoke detectors? You can remove them from their base, usually you have to push a flat tipped screwdriver into a slot and the detector will slide away, some get their power from pins in the base and won't need anything disconnecting, others have a power ribbon that will just need to be pulled out. If you remove the one that's had water in it, it will shut the others up. If your lucky this will dry out on a radiator, they have a backup battery in them that cannot be removed and will usually chirp when removed from their base in a fault condition.
If you can show me a picture of it I'll tell you where to get a replacement
Yeah, I've sorted it now.
Pulled the offending one out and removed the little rectangular battery, disconnected from the mains and put some of those little plastic terminal things on so that ones isolated so all the other one still work.
The good news is I'm going to have to get part of the gable end of the hose taken down and the trays behind it upgraded as well as some of the internal plastering and associated decorating redone.
It's going to need a three story scaffold at one side and two at the other so all in all it's going to cost a ruddy fortune.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

Not really sure how you've arrived at that conclusion.
it just reminded me of my old boss who would do all the talking while we did all the work
Oh, guilty as charged then, talking is what I do best!

A friend of mine blagged a job doing the landscaping for the Sydney Olympics which included getting a pass for the games, he's an electrician and has never had a garden!

Think the slogan may be a bit optomistic, dum-dum? And got to say Rufus makes it look tacky. Suggest Hull KR - The Robins all in the same chunky bold of the bottom suggestion. Sorry. None of my business, anyway .

I've taken note of your input you dark, unsightly parasite. See above edit.
Yes, I'm very fond of swirly writing, I sometimes wish they'd print books in swirly writing.

They used to, in the good old days. More, they used to hand write them in the most beautiful scripts, before printers and fonts were invented.
