Good Morning Thread - Come say good morning, tell us what you've got on today. :)

We have this thread on TilersForums.com and it's just been restarted because the old thread had 20,000 replies and 500,000 views. And there were 700 pages. Started to lag a bit on slow connections.

I think we had a bash of this before, but I can't find the thread, so thought I'd start another one off.

If you have time in the mornings, come post in the thread before you head off to work, let us know what you've got on and what the weather is like in your area etc. Anything at all is fine.

Posts and likes get counted towards your total stats in this thread.

So GOOOD MORNING PEOPLE - WEATHER IS NICE TODAY IN STOKE. I'M THANKFUL IT'S FRIDAY, HAD A RUBBISH WEEK. THANK GOD IT'S OVER.

Up to my eye balls in meetings and budgets today. Going "The Dog Fest" at Tatton Park with the missus tomorrow, to earn some brownie points for when I spend the whole day on Sunday with my mates out on our enduro bikes, then curry and beer for tea.

Nowt on today, college induction.

Yesterday was doing car park lighting at an airport, followed by wrestling with a fire alarm at half 3 and making absolute basic rookie mistakes due to fatigue.

Note to self, ceiling boxes are exactly the same as socket boxes - they go in first and then all the wiring comes in after.

Duh!

Packing for trip to Spain tomorrow, the land of "interesting" electrics.
So much paperwork these days: Passport, double jab immunisation certificate, personal locator form, boarding pass, small briefcase to carry the above...and when returning, all of the above plus negative antigen test result pre-flight (currently still required to enter Scotland, but hope Nicola will drop this before i return) and book day 2 Covid test,,,
Hardly worth the hassle for 4 weeks in the sun!

Good morning everybody, hope your week goes well.

Morning All

Well I’m searching for the needle in a haystack today!!

I was called out on emergency call out late last week on a RCD tripping on ring main had to split the ring to a radial and leave the faulty side off until this morning.

All good fun ?

October holidays start earlier in Scotland, so I got “Trailer Swift” hooked on, and we’re now down in a caravan site in Anglesey.

We might walk up a mountain or two, but in the meantime, I’m in the bad books for forgetting to bring the remote control for the telly.

Yet another disciplinary, my third one in the past month. The first 2 resulted in me dismissing the persons (not a nice job) this one so far is looking likely to be a final written warning.

I honestly think COVID has more of an impact on people's behaviour than we often realise, even just subtle changes that then can escalate.

Oh… I read this and thought YOU were receiving the disciplinary! ?

I feel your pain, that’s the worst sort of earache ever.
Can only be paused by a trip to the pub, comes back when you get home but at least the senses have been dulled a little.

The three port valve is the most common problem.

yes I wrote it specifically that way to keep you in suspense ?
