I find it rather strange that An "Electrician" had done thus!

Eeh, the groups back then were dressed in smart suits even though my Dad called the Beatles "those long haired nits" LOl. Dave Clark Five, Gerry and the Pacemakers. I think much changed with Glam. Marc Bolam, Bowie etc etc, I loved the 70s, left school in 71 so the 70s were my formative years...

Well my twice a week bacon or bacon and egg is twice a week only and if I make it myself it is grilled bacon and poached eggs, however if on a holiday/break it usually is fried bacon and fried eggs, I`ll be the first to admit that fried stuff tastes better but I try to think healthy, fried bread...

Kipton ! I was there tother day in Kipton, not far from me , them Stan pies have really gone downhill with a vengeance. And what the heck happened with SCAD a bit back?

Fried bread, really bad for you but yes on a breakfast. I usually treat myself to one per year. Well you gotta have things you like now and again to make life worth living. In fact I’ve just realised I am overdue that treat so next time I am having one. Another thing is it’s only right fried if...

And not to forget that PAT Testing reads as Portable Apliance Testing Testing which would be as silly as saying PIN Number which would be Personal Identification Number Number or TUC Congress being Trades Union Congress Congress! Who dreams up these words anyways?

an egg on its own needs a little salt but on a bacon egg sandwich there already more than enough in the bacon anyway so no salt added. your dad was right bout needing salt yes but usually we have more than enough, in really hot countries and drinking a lot of water you might actually need a...

I do agree with you that it appauls me that folk put salt on stuff before they have even tasted it. One bloke I knew put salt on bacon, usually some of the most salty stuff around! PS - I rarely but sometimes put sauce (brown only) on bacon. But I never put anything on anything before tasting...

That Sir, is a travisty! Next you will be suggesting that pineapple (a lovely fruit) is acceptable on a pizza or that curry/gravy is allowed on fish and chips. It is just "Not Cricket"

and whilst we are at it. Sauce with bacon should be brown, like HP for example, never tomato ketchup. Tomato ketchup is wonderfull on loads of things but not a bacony egg thingy!

Yes But whether you love it or loathe it. The pont is that it was never part of the "Traditional British Breakfast"!. Can not be a tradition because of the relative short time its been included. That is the point. It is a missnomer.

You may have rights under Sale Of Goods Acts that outlast any manufacturrers warranties anyway. I would expect that 2.5 years in from purchase is still within that timescale, Cit Advise could advise you properly, you may have to go thru the court system such as small claims in the coulnty court...

When did the Hash Brown ever become part of the Traditional British Breakfast? Never! Never heard of it years ago. Where did it come from? USA? Well we never heard of it back in our childhoods and our parents and grandparents didni either!

Yes indeed doing it properly if you can is the best option but if not the converts is worth considering

Observing the E pulls out last is a good idea Making the lives pull out first in case of cord grip failure. Ideally Line first the N a very close second then the E as late as possible

The easiest way is often to use a “Converta”type thingy for most folks

I would advise you to rethink an electric shower, to get one with a decent heat output and the cable (and pipework) lengths regards not just costs and losses with current and water flow you could go a long way to go with a storage system rather than instantaneous. The cost of a cylinder and good...

Phillips EE kits , yes I had one xxx

I left school in1971 . Valves were still the King of electronics. OK we had tranny radios and the Sinclair Micromatic was a must have to some kids. The IC were the new kids on the block. We had a computer club after school that was with the Dep Head. All of the logic gates were with diodes or...
