    lights

    I agree, I don't like drivers who don't put their lights on, but we have all done it. I know once or twice i have driven off and forgot to put lights on, thinking they already were on. Especially when in a really lit up area. What I really hate is the eejits who drive everywhere with full beam...

    RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS - BEST BAND

    Is it just me, or are the Chili Peppers the best band around now? Don't mean single artists, or rap or anything. But I mean bands as in playing their own instruments/ writing their own songs etc. I think they are amazing. But then again "I'm a pill-head, and an in-bred..."

    Offensive music?

    The most offensive "music," and I use the word in its loosest sense, is heard when you are sat at traffic lights. Some 17-year-old Tw*t, boy-racer pulls up next to you, flashy car mummy bought for him, with more neon than Soho. And all you can hear/feel is that f***ing bass. No tune, no lyrics...

    A few bonding questions...

    Sorry to (slightly) hijack post. But its on the question of the bonding conductor in a stud wall. Although many times I have seen (/done it myself) a bonding conductor run through stud wall/ chased and plastered into masonry/ run down a wall in pvc trunking etc. never been 100% sure how...

    would you?

    Round my way 2 blokes had a row bout a dog. So one of them broke into the others house, scalped him, and cut 1 of his fingers off with a saw. Not saying its right, but if someone ever hurt my poor old mutt, they would wish they had just been scalped and lost fingers. :evil:

    Getting upto date Question.

    When you say "a guy you was talking to the other day," do you mean in the same way that I wrote to the agony aunt of The Sun newspaper recently. I asked for advice for "My Friend" who had a nasty little rash? P.S "My Friend" was very pleased with the advice and can now get a permanent live ...

    Southampton Electrician Needed

    Ok guys, I guess I opened myself up for that little lot :) There are no steers or queers left in Pompey, they have been nicked by all the thieves. And Skate? At last it is nice to find someone who knows the proper derogatory term 4 a Pomponian/ Pompeyite. Only found out the other day why we...

    Southampton Electrician Needed

    Sorry to spoil your day chaps, but you wont find a decent anything in Southampton. That's why they built Portsmouth. Ooohh I'm wicked, I know, but I was "Made in Pompey." Or at least, so the corny tattoo round my belly-button tells me. :oops: 8) :twisted:

    p.a.t

    With all due respect to Big_Spark, how can you have a pop at someone 4 spelling when you use words like "somewthing"? :twisted: With all due respect to the poster, big_spark actually said what I was trying to, but couldn't find the words for. It seems as though you are trying to gain access to...

    Motion Sensor.

    Sorry traveller, have only read half this post so I have probably got it wrong as usual. But totally agree with Sparkybird, the ebay fitting looks utter sh**e. I wouldn't want it in my nightmares, let alone my house. However if you want something that stops you falling over in dark, comes on...

    p.a.t

    Guess it depends where you do it, but when I did the course it was a very informative 2 days (Unicorn Center, Portsmouth.) And it beats being at work. I might of been a bit jaded though, cause I did it at the same place as 1st year of my apprenticeship, so it was a trip down memory lane for me...

    p.a.t

    No need to register anywhere, but a course is most advisable. As is good kit, insurance, and an ability to put up with unrivalled amounts of boredom. Also, pat is easy if you know some basics about electrics, but it is not something a beginner can just jump into. There is more to it than first...

    5amp fuses

    ooooohhh, sorry guys, totally mis-read the question after a bottle or several of chardonnay. Thought something all-together different was being asked. Many apologies. But I do have to say that the woman with the weird eye is my sister. We all have a weird eye in my family. We share it...

    Type 1,2,3,4 Vs B,C,D?

    Calling all older and wiser sparks. Sorry I know this has probably been asked before, but did a search and found nothing. Could someone please tell this fledgling the differences between the old obsolete breakers, and the shiny, new B,C,D's. Am I right in believing that 1-4's trip nearer to...
