Lol yeah I know surveyors...I am one of the very many hated Estate Agents in this world! I had a homebuyers report done and they claim to have gone in the loft so.....anyway lets leave rants about surveyors there :P Where might one go about getting one of those brackets? Also I am assuming...

I have been in the house for approx 18 months, however its the first trip to the loft as I have only just bought a ladder (drive a small car with no room to allow one to be purchased ha ha). However the surveyor should have seen it when the survey was performed 18 months ago! I do have a...

Well I do hope that something can be done which doesn't run into costing thousands of pounds as thats just not possible for me at the moment. What a smal world to have other people from Eastbourne on here, thought I'd be the only one!

Finally....all done,working not blown up.................(yet) lol thank you all so much for your help and advice.

when i went upstairs the reds in the junction box were sparking :oops:

I don't have a multimeter remember :wink:

Nope its not bulbs - took one which is known to work and tried it in a working light and the new one - still nothing lol

Its some B&Q 5 armed chrome thing lol! Hmmmm bulbs - suppose thats an option....darn sundays, nowhere open to get any

Ok - have changed the switch and still no light :-( Please explain to me how it doesn't matter which black wire goes where because surely they do different things? My understanding is that the light should come on no matter which one is connected - however one will allow it to be turned...
