the mind boggles, and after further consideration boggles again.

nothging on today, glenn? i just had a 2 downlights to add in a jeweller's shop. false ceiling, bloody soft fibreglass tiles. needed some backing to stop the springs ripping through the tiles. just cut a bit of the hardboard liner out the van's back door. fitted my 2 fittings with line products eggs. the existing 12 had choc blocks uninsulated to each transformer, no sheathing on transformer primary leads. to fix all that would have turned a £75 job into £200. where do you draw the line?
 
A Guy I work with always goes commando, doing a job in Germany and his trousers split, he had to go around with his sweatshirt tied around his waste all day as he couldn't leave the exhibition lol
didn`t they do that back in medieval times....

To the more expensive end I have some Blaklader pants. My oldest pair must be 8 years old and still rocking strong. Pretty much indestructible. Quite a heavy material though so a bit sweaty in lofts.
 
"Snickers or scruffs for me. Both are good, they are called holsters as well not flappy side things"

well said. abbreviating can be deadly. especially if this came up in the new 2391 exams. they will have you for not using correct BSEN abbreviations such as flappy side things haha

Terminology is important. Especially in this case for the female sparkies among us.
"Got any inch and half eights I can pinch?"
"Yeah I think I've got a slack handful in my flaps you can have"
