    I would hasten to add that i am not a qualified spark .either ;hovever to my untrained eye it looks like top quality gaffa tape round those ends . If they are "live" then they should be contained with much more respect.I bet if you asked nicely one of top real sparks that contribute to the forum...

    Fixed Appliances--Again-No doubt

    I take your point Adam but if the ticket slappers went i am sure there would be a little more profit in the work .making it easier to pay out the fees for re-accreditation .
