Hi there, A piece inside the cistern of my toilet just broke, (see image). It was a small plastic connector that connected the handle to the main mechanism. Can it be easily replaced? what is the part called? Thanks, BK.

Current Minor Project - Doing some furniture restoration of a Parker Knoll chair picked up at auction for next to nothing. They are incredibly well designed chairs, and really comfortable too.

Last step will be to drop it off at a specialist for reupholstering. That step is beyond me.

It completely bent after just a few uses. The butterfly one is pretty good though.

Could do with some advice on a bathroom paint job. The paint above the shower area keeps peeling and falling off. How should I prepare the area before putting on a new paint job? Also, is there special paint that should be used for a bathroom ceiling?? Please see pic attached:
