How many times have you been on site and watched a builder try and fit a plug top | on ElectriciansForums

Discuss How many times have you been on site and watched a builder try and fit a plug top in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

I couldn't help laughing at that! The live to earth and neutral to live love it! I just had a worrying thought though...You know those people who write in to Eastenders and tell Dave his wife is having an affair, and beat up people who have the name El Nino (you know the tidal wave) I wonder if they take this seriously and wire up plugs like that???
 
Hello Pete999,

Thanks for posting that video - very amusing - hopefully no-one could ever take their Plug wiring `instructions` seriously.

Members will see after watching it that this pair of blokes star in other `Spoof` videos about various Building works and a Builders Merchant trade counter - some of these videos show on screen after the `Wiring a Plug` video has ended.

I have watched a few from `The Bald Builders` and `Tony`s Yard`.

All good fun apart from the fact that We all know that there are still plenty of `Cowboy Builders` out there - unfortunately some of who would have similar real life attitudes to the obvious wind ups that these blokes narrate in their videos !

Hi Chris, it was meant as a spoof if you have seen some of the other Bald Builders videos I have posted you would understand
 
Hello again Pete,

Like every Member who has seen the video I obviously knew straight away that the `Wiring a Plug` video was definitely a `spoof` - NO-ONE could ever be serious with the `instructions` that they were giving.

When I wrote this:

`hopefully no-one could ever take their Plug wiring `instructions` seriously`

I meant that NO-ONE could EVER take their `wiring instructions` seriously.

I was not trying to state that You should not have posted the Video in case anyone did take them seriously.

I just wanted to clarify that in case You did take my comment the wrong way - the last thing that I want to do is to inadvertently irritate You or any other Member.

Chris
