    I'm just a newbie looking for insight

    I'm not going anywhere near this after reading fellow forum members comments. If it was my survey I would take it down and start again. From what I see here Mauranda, you really need the insight of those people who are NOT going to tolerate a badly presented survey. If you are happy to accept...

    Electrical test connectors.

    Hahah! Thanks for that croc clip on your arse vision. That'll be with me all day. If you have a croc clip that persistently falls off as you walk away can you not tape the lead to the wall then attach the clip, thereby negating any 'wiggle' as you move about? Just a thought.

    Electrical test connectors.

    What is wrong with croc clips? I'd have thought them more secure than a magnet. Is this an exercise in laziness to the extreme? If you can't get a crop clip onto a terminal, am I the only person who thinks of tucking another conductor into the terminal and croc clipping that? I know it's not...

    Proving unit on assesment?

    It's an odd world. You see the authorities laying down the rules and saying you need to do this, you need that. But then, those same governing bodies never test to see if the rules are being obeyed. So it's no surprise to see that people who have other peoples lives in their hands also don't see...

    EICR on non logo forms?

    Local Building control perhaps, but our local punter and small business owner probably wouldn't even blink at a missing logo. What they want is a reassurance from a competent electrician that the installation is safe and within regulations. That they get a certificate to keep and to prove that...

    Electric cooker crackling

    Disconnect the appliance. Test your cables. If all good there, point proven. Duff cooker.

    Additional Kitchen ring?

    Find out what is going to be plugged in. Work out what the maximum (although unlikely) current is going to be, then do the maths. If the existing ring cable (you did say that the kitchen had it's own ring) can support the load then make sure the protective device can protect the cable and simply...

    Farming Simulator 17

    Oh! I had a G27... it was great when it worked, but when it sucked it SUCKED. Inconsistent and patchy at best. New games were a nightmare and I ended up playing games like Microprose Grand Prix 4 for years just to get my monies worth out of it. Don't bother with the G29 either, it's worse. The...

    Farming Simulator 17

    I watched loads of videos on Eurotruck simulator 2 and fell in love. Got it, played 20 minutes and haven't played since. Sometimes, that other guy really is better at playing games than me. :(

    Advise on a startup business

    Having owned a few businesses I can definitely agree on the advertising front. Do not expect free advertising to keep your business afloat, rather look at it as a bonus. As one of my main businesses was printing here's a pause for thought... 5000 A5 double sided flyers cost less than £50. My...

    Back to the trade after a loooong time away.

    Ah! Qualifications. Well none to be honest. I worked with my brothers and friends in the building trade and learned on the job. I am still in contact with a few of the lads from back then and they are still going. I am looking to start a property maintenance business and eventually move off the...

    Back to the trade after a loooong time away.

    I was wondering if anyone else had been away from the trade for an extended period? And what they did to get back up to speed. I have managed to get work subbing for a company who say they will help me but still think I need to brush up on my theory side. When I started back in 1980 things were...
