sorry guys, should have said.
the Labourers fine

 

[telectrix]

assuming that this is a DNO supply cable, then the normal rules of sensible depth and warning tape don't apply.

 

[Guest154]

mind pull the fuse in the property

 

[glasgospark]

ahh , the rules book was bound to come out

 

[Robotstar5]

Did he try pushing the ends back together and pretending nothing had happened?

 

[dan86]

Looks like the shovel can't be salvaged.some accidents can be fatal
A new shovel will never be an acceptable replacement
Lets hope it didn't suffer

DNO drawings as well Tony

Rememeber years ago the local council replacing the flags and kerbs outside my house, my ex rang me up to say they had gone through the gas pipe, she went outside to ask them did they have drawings for the utilities. They said to he ryou don't know what your talking about she then informed them she was an engineer for the local DNO, I loved to have been there to see there faces when she told them this.
