Was what the voice at the other end of the phone said, Strange I thought, We agreed I'd have a look the following day,
On arriving I was shown the bright shiny new 9.5Kw shower in a nice bungalow and upon switching on it worked could not see what the guy was on about, he replied "It will work today as its Saturday and tomorrow too"
Ok now I'm getting a little worried about this guys mental stability should I suggest he get some Prozac for his shower, He goes on to explain that he fitted the new shower after the 8 yr old one failed, Now I'm twitching and asked what cable he used? the reply was "oh the same stuff that was on the old shower" more worried now I took the covers off and gasped The original cable was 4m/m,

Then having a look in the loft I found the reason it only worked at weekends, When the old boy came home from work a bit dirty he'd have a shower while his wife cooked his tea, Yep the 4m/m feed to the shower was joined via a very sorry looking choc-block to the 6m/m cooker main

As someone with more sense than this guy once said DOH

Couple of hrs later and 2 new 10m/m feeds and a couple of mcb's from the cu in the garage were in
