i know that cable wasnt in the wall when you put that picture up it must of moved.

Hi Guys,

How about;

'You want to convert all your house to Solar power, Wind power and tidal power?
Yes no problem.
You also want me to guarantee it will be sunny and windy all day and night?
Yes no problem.
You also want me to fit it in half a day and charge you ÂŁ20 a week on a finance deal?
Yes no problem.
You want me to work without a cup of tea and a biscuit?
Hang on thats where I draw the line......


Best wishes

Rex
 
I wouldn't have installed it that way sir but look....if the plumber says that 2,5mm cable spurred off the upstairs lighting supply is okay for that 9kw shower..... then it's fine by me and of course I can replace that 10A MCB with a 50A.

Me? with all my hard earned qualifications and years of experience? Of course that guy at the pub has identified your problem without the use of expensive test equipment and yes, he obviously knows so much more than me
 
Of course I don't mind doing a call out at 8pm on our staff Xmas p up after doing a 12 hour shift driving 300 miles round trip, any time boss. (you can tell I'm not bitter about it)
 
Hi Guys,


Call out for blown fuse in house on 24/12/11 at 11.13pm.....
'You wonder what the smell of whiskey and a burnt turkey dinner is from?
That's Sam my apprentice, he's specially trained and has been certified by the local college.
He is just trying out your cooker doing a pat test, and your decanter for insulation resistance - dont worry it is now in Amendment one of the wiring regs and its all part of the service.
We will give you the paperwork as soon as we get home.
Oh by the way heres the invoice'
Happy New Year...

Best wishes

Rex
