Domestic lighting circuit identification problem

[gaz05]

Hi, I'm in the process of sorting out a few things before changing the consumer unit at my moms' house (I only finished college last June so still wet behind the ears and have loads to learn). The bedroom above the garage was built as an extension years ago and the feed for the bedroom light was taken from the landing light, which in turn is on the downstairs lighting circuit. So incorrectly identified at the consumer unit for isolation.
Having checked all the other lighting points upstairs they are wired in singles and at the ceiling rose only switched live, presumably why the extension was taken from the landing... What options do I have? Is labelling with a note on the downstairs breaker good enough? If not would mean re wiring the upstairs lights no?

Thanks for reading and any input

isn't that notifiable to the NIC-ICE gestapo?

notify nothing of the sort , it all just guidance,

If you chuck a brick/log in thats fine, however the use of a rake is most certainly notifiable as these are dangerous tools and require training and qualification (4 week course)

only 4 weeks, i'll go for that. then they will give me command of my own 20,000 ton ice breaker and i can go and save the polare bears, which, as we all know are about to become extinct due to the fact that we are not using 100% candle ( sorry , cfl) lighting.

from what you describe, i wouldnt be surprised if the upstairs and downstairs lighting circuit dont share a neutral that feeds the landing light. so you may find that if you put upstairs and downstairs on a different rcd, one of them will trip when you turn the light on. It happened to me last week, and it seems like the same layout as yours, landing light on the downstairs lightingcircuit.
