Hi all,

Seeing as it's Friday thought it'd be a bit of fun to play a drinking game:D
(Alcohol is optional)

Basically someone says never have i ever... do etc. If you have you drink (Or like the post etc)

Try keep it clean for a little bit ey?

Be honest if you're taking part!

I'll start..
Never have I ever smashed my face with my own snips whilst stripping cable :D

Maybe add a back story with your suggestions so it's not as incriminating on your part lol.

Did you make the sound of surprise and alarm? :D
No, that never happens...

Never have I ever forgotten to swap the phases on the delta part of one of the motors when changing the direction of rotation on several star/delta fan motors, so it started forwards then suddenly attempted to reverse when it changed to delta. I wouldn't know, but that might have made the sound of surprise and alarm. :eek:
I'm a good electrician really! :oops:

I've once been to a job on a Sunday after the guys "electrician" (to be fair it was a good job so far) where the spotlights kept tripping and he couldn't figure it out after spending Friday until 6 tearing his hair out (And the wall for a screwed cable)

So I take a peak inside the board... he disconnected it and I saw the neutral long enough to go on the opposite RCD. Sorted :D

Also tried to be converted to be a muslim. Had to politely decline and obstain from religion :D
 
You've just reminded me of an incident about twenty odd years ago..
Friend of mine who's also a spark. Fitted an outside light for a guy who played in the same pool team. It was a quick job..
Unfortunately the light kept going on and off when it felt like it.
So we both went to look at it ( we had nowt better to do and he only lived 2mins from the pub).
Long story short...he had cut into a cable fed from his room stat... So it went off when the boiler went off..it was funny and embarrassing for him.
He still hasn't lived it down.

But I constantly get asked "has that radiator come on yet? Just put your hand on it and see"
Be much easier with a light to signify.
 
Never have I ever spent 3 hours trying to put up Swedish flat pack furniture and still not finish it at 1 in the morning on a bank holiday Monday.

Never have I ever esembled it wrong (a few times) only to realise when it comes to a later step and have to take it all back apart.
