    Hi, Not a question, just a picture. Just bought a house - from what i found lurking under the floor I think a re-wire might be in order! You have never seen so many JB's under one roof! I can keep them coming if anyone wants a good laugh?.... Joel.

    New Alarm Install

    Does this type of roof construction even exist?.....

    Some advice would be appreciated... Im looking at plans for a selfbuld 2 storey house and I want to maximise on useable space so the use of the roof void too is a must. The design of the house means it doesn't have gables at either end as its a hip roof design with 2 smaller gable offshoots...

    I bought the pbx from CPC (cpc.co.uk) its a BT ultimate 106. Unfortunately its not rack mountable but its a great little system with all the bells and whistles including advanced call routing and a personal mailbox on each extension ans well as a jack input for music on hold. There are more...
