What are you doing/done today ? not a direct poll but I thought that it would be interesting to see a snapshot of a day in the life of a E.F. member did it go to plan what problems did you overcome.
 
I had a 2 hour job planned this morning to install a flowswitch in some 3 inch pipework on a water pump. I just needed to install 1x tee piece fitting to accomodate it. It turned into a full day, about 30 fittings an entire pot of paste and a full bag of hemp because the existing pipework discintegrated as soon as we got the wrenches on it :(
 
First fixing a new build house today, a nice change as I normally avoid these. :D The builder couldn't believe I'd clipped all the cabling on joists and in the loftspace all nice and tidy. apparently very few bother nowadays according to him ! Crazy though I can remember first fixing an average sized semi in a day many years ago when doing sites but couldn't do it in 2 now.:rolleyes: And Westward 10 - I think the issue on your board is maybe earth cable used as L/N on the incomer but disguised with loads of brown and blue tape ?

Yawn, yeah I know you told us all before, lunchtime went for a swim in a mountain lake, then eat beef biltong for lunch, quaffed down with lashings of Pinotage Reserve. Before Barbie on the beach in the evening. I don't know how you manage it :)
