Technical Help / Re: USB charger
« on: Yesterday at 15:42 »
As I understand it USB cables are capable of dealing with a range of voltages ie from 5-20volts. However, the individual USB sockets can vary eg USB 2 and 3 are 5volts whilst USB c can be anything from 5-20volts. As long as the cable you have fits both the flosser and the charger then all should be well.

Nottinghamshire / Re: Temperance Hotel, Barker Gate, Nottingham 1880s
« on: Friday 10 October 25 17:21 BST (UK) »
I note you intend to visit the Nottingham archives. perhaps check out the following https://picturenottingham.co.uk/image-library/image-details/poster/ntgm005529/posterid/ntgm005529.html
There was another hotel like the one seen here on Shakespeare Street and Lester's Temperance Hotel on Hounds Gate. A Temperance Movement Hall was designed by the renowned Nottingham Architect Watson Fothergill but never built. Watson Fothergill also built a Coffee Tavern for the Temperance Movement in Hucknall (1884).
Maybe the Coffee Tavern which may have been in Barkergate Hucknall is the establishment you are searching for.
