Actually one of the most boring reads ever! It was obvious from page one that the guy knew BAS had him cornered but he kept coming back for more. Still, I was mightily impressed that he ran his own company and was a qualified designer, installer and tester as he was so keen to allude to on multiple occasions. Surprised you didn't run off with your tail between your legs in the face of that sort of heavyweight argument BAS.

I also got banned from a forum because "I was instructing people how to do functions which could be dangerous" because some one complained and then the guy also went.
Problem is no way to say good bye and tell people what went on which is why I am careful to refer to Part P on here.
I believe that people will DIY Part P or no Part P and if I can guide them to doing a safer job then I think I have done good deed for the day.
But I will admit back in 1998 I worked for a guy who had one set of test gear between 6 electricians and often work was not tested to required standard. We were always going to go back to finish it but often never happened. But since Part P much more attention has been paid to inspection and testing.

I don't know. Perhaps it's because this is a particularly good DIY forum.

I've come across Warreng before, I'm sure.
On this forum as FHW Engineer, on Ultimatehandyman as I Don't Believe It and on Screwfix as rabbit rabbit.
On past performance, he'll carry on until his posts show him to be such an absolute tw@ that even he becomes too embarassed to continue with his ID. He then, Phœnix-like arises from the ashes on another forum under a different ID. Nevertheless, his status as a class I idiot always shines through.

FWL is famous for various forum exploits across the Internet.
Did you ever see this one?

That's right, Goldberg FWL. I'd forgotten, although I should have remembered; if you pronounce "fwl" as Welsh, it sounds appropriate!
I had not come across your link before. Presumably he'd exploited that character to the limit and had to bump him off.
I liked his "I don't believe it" character best. He ended up with 90 years of academic experience, two degrees and a doctorate as well as being a "qualified electrician".

That's outrageous - I knew he was a complete tw@, but I never thought he would stoop so low as to make up stories about being killed in a car crash. Mind you - as he used to do an average of 100,000 miles a year, and at times up to 240,000, it would have been a highly probable way for him to go.
I'm truly surprised that there wasn't a lot more fuss on that forum when they realised what a terrible lie he had perpetrated. Maybe listening to all that white noise from space has addled all their brains.
Does anybody know if he is still active anywhere? It would be nice to go and congratulate him on his miraculous resurrection..
By the way who is softus?
I suggest you seek out his posts and form your own conclusions - I can't quote any as he's been on my Ignore list for years...
