    Fitting a ceiling light.

    Got it. The original sparks had mixed up a couple of neutral wires between the flat I was working on and another. So someone in the other fat might have been wondering why his ring main suddenly stopped working .....LOL

    That's only part of the answer :) Don't forget, I had the fuse in my pocket

    Fitting a ceiling light.

    I'm a qualified electrician (retired) and even us pro's can get caught out. Replacing a consumer unit in a flat in a block that was wired with old style metal conduits and single core red and black wires. Turned off the old consumer unit. Went into the landing utility cupboard and removed...

    Linseed oil is dreadful stuff. No matter how thinly you put it on, it takes forever to dry out despite what Jacob would have you believe! Plus it's a feeding ground for mould and mildew unless you stuff it full of zinc oxide.

    Hello from Pershore

    Is Brown's where the original hardware shop was ? A few yards down towards Aysum on the lefthand side....just past the junction with the offstreet parking ? It was Magic back in the day.

    And Worcester has a great Asian foodstore at Friends. Is that micro-brewery in St Johns still going ?

    Hello from Pershore

    Yes...I used to go there when Paddy was the landlord. It took ten years before he called me by my Christian name. Mind you that was 50 years ago....LOL.

    I have a good ear, that's true. But could I state the pitch ? Not a chance.

    Microsoft Onedrive lost my files ?

    No, it specifically say a 5GB but no matter. I realise I don't need it thanks to MamTor !

    Whatever you do, do NOT use that awful linseed oil stuff. Let the timber breathe. Lime paint good...anything synthetic bases...very bad. Whereabouts in Herefordshire...know the county well. Renovated a B&W there a few years back.

    I just whack the tension on mine up until it hits the right note.

    Buying a machine on eBay sight unseen with pallet delivery

    Shouldn't you have asked those question before you bid ? But I take Jacob's point. BTW some people will hack an eBay account and so their rating per se is meaningless.

    Microsoft Onedrive lost my files ?

    I think we're going off topic now. My basic question is....the message tells me that my storage requirements will be over my storage limit when the 'deal' ends. Yet there is nothing there.

    Microsoft Onedrive lost my files ?

    That's a good thought but I am logging in using the same email address that the message was sent to. Strange one.
