Sorry, if I could I would have done so but don't have the camera, equipment etc required.

Just to say about the diagram in the above post with some saying it is a junction box and some saying a ceiling rose one thing I can say it is probably by no way a new diagram only an altered version of an old one. At home I have a Readers Digest Repair Manual from 1976 first published 1972...

.......they say 'It is often simple jobs you wish you never started'. Last night where I work I brought in a spare lamp to go in one of the fridges in the kitchen. I did not know if it would be the same type of bulb-the one I brought in was out of an old fridge freezer I had. Anyway, I...

OK then. Thanks for everybody's advice.

Everybody's advice much appresiated, but I would like to clarify a few things: 1) I just want to have proper phone sockets instead of the clumsby cheap telephone extension lead run all over the place. 2) I still think it will be handy to have telephone sockets so I can use them for an...

HI again I have thought of different ideas, but as I don't own the router (my younger sister does) I would not like to interfere with it in any way or complicate things for myself. My idea is to have a phone socket in each room and buy a router in the near future for my own computer so we...

I wish to install two extra phone sockets upstairs, one in each bedroom, so that the computer router can be used from either socket since it is often used in the two different rooms frequently. I know that socket kits are available or I will need to get them, cable etc seperately. However...

Why is it that when everybody on this forum uses the above words they always use asteriks as though the word(s) itself is an indecent word? I never knew it was?.... Or is it the moderators that are doing it?

Sorry, I'm afraid I don't have a camera to take a picture with. Yes, The CU is connected to the meter as it should be (there is now an isolator in between as well now). Also would they check how long I lived there? since I was there before the cutout was installed in 1990. Coming to...

My cutout, has one of the two cover screws missing. This has been like this for eleven years, but not my doing. It was done by a bloke doing a CU change at the time who tried to see if he could move it to get the cover on the CU, which when he realised he couldn't, he had to cut a small piece...

YES I KNOW THAT!!! I WAS ONLY ASKING!!!

Mind you though I had always thought to myself, Gordon Ramsay-what a right ta*t he must be to work for-a few months later I saw him in the Saturday sport been named as...... "T**t of the day".... But there again though, I only do kitchen portering, mainly washing up, and the landlady etc say...

It is true what they say is'nt it? Chefs generally are bad tempered, possibly due to it been a hard and stressful job. Where I work I remember there was one instance on a busy summere evening the chef was getting very frustrated and a massive wooden spoon was getting inthe...

HI We have had a second hand freezer for about 18 months and we never here it switch off. However if I switch it off at the wall and then switch it back on again immediately, then it usually does not start again immediately, instead after about two or three minutes afterwards. Could this...

The Live wire burning-a change to it been the Neutral burning as is often the case!

HI. Sorry for the delay in replying. Like I said, I thought a seperate supply would be required. The parents have an electric cooker (32A supply for it) and as for 3 phase, we live in a rempote area and supplied from a rather long overhead single phase supply. My father years backed...

Hi. My younger sister has an idea of having a second chalet at my parents home. This is just an idea at the moment, however, I would like it if I could be backed up on one thing I have tried to explain. I don't know how big the proposed chalet is to be, but since there will be a socket...

Thanks. I don't know how they got my number still, my phone does not have bluetooth on it.

In all kinds of ways, if I have time I'll explain later. I was told to watch my back for one thing and get a proper job. Ill say it may be related to trouble Ive had from schoolkids etc on the service bus home but how the hell they got my number? since I dont think any of them have my full name...

Saturday Morning, 2.20, offensive phone call on mobile. Then in the next hour followed six more, came up as private calls ie no phone number shown. the first phone call I answered, ignored the rest. Sunday morning another call followed. Police and phone company have been contacted...
