The bends in the tails look a bit sharp.
The earth cable draped over the board below the CU looks a bit untidy.
You didn't make good the paint on the wall before you put conduit in the way.
And is the T/E going into the 2nd from right conduit grey, or dirty?

The one under the CU? I have purchased clips and they are on their way to me as we speak.
Agreed, 25mm tails are a bugger to get pretty.
Is either going to be upgraded or moved depending on gas meter relocations costs.
Will probably end up being covered by full height kitchen cabinet.
Grey, added new socket to ring in bedroom.
Is not a loop, is the existing water pipe bonding.
I think that is actually disappearing up a conduit to (hopefully) bond the water

Did you use a grommet/similar where the tails enter the board?
