Durgo - that would have been your raise out the window! Along with the bosses head! My mates weree ****ed up one night and decided to cut a "small" tree down that was overgrowing on the verge. As it was a little country road and dark they set to it with drunken vigour. After missing the tree...

Unfort the c unit is below stairs by the front door. The kitchen is on the second floor (weird) and client has wall papered walls. Cant go outside the front door and up in conduit because the top level sits back from the bottom level. So will run in trunking below the coving above main door into...

Anyone on here a fan of Carol King? I have noticed that all the young people nowadays listen to some "interesting" music. Whenever you go to a club I find the busiest room is the "cheese" room - all the golden oldies! It's a pity they don't make music like that anymore... For the record I am...

Doyle Just seen your post - thanks. again it makes sense to assume it will use full load. Just hoping there was a small chance I could sneak it - safely. Never mind. Bring out the trunking...

Adam thanks for reply - wasn't sure if I could take it as one load or 10 amps per appliance. In light of your post I reckon I will just run another 6mm supply to the kitchen. I can see what you mean about good practise applying diversity to appliances. Thanks again.

Makes you wonder how it is that like in this instance a terminally ill person who wants to end their life is not allowed to do so, but underaged girls can get advice about abortion without their parents consent? Mix up of human rights I feel.

iritates me too - although there are no no entry signs, its like an unwritten rule - but there is always one. Slightly off topic here... Was in the petrol station other day paying for juice when the guy in front of me grabs 2 botlles of wine on sale - 2 for £10. Anyway attendant rings them up...

As a non british born citizen, I was very very surprised when I first moved here and asked my mate what he did for relaxing etc. Answer - get ****ed. I had only drank 3 times before in my life now it was every friday and sat night! And the amount of times people argue and fight because they...

Hi You can have an inline crimp in and providing the reading is less than 0.05 ohms then it is ok. I know it's not a preferred method but it can get you out of the doo at times.

Mick If you look and that site you will find the ones that plug into a socket - they light up and beep.

Thanks db
