Search the forum,
Hope you've got a big dog sat in the van whilst your working lol. Better train it to put car/van fire out as well pmsl.
Yes Tel it is that bad as you have seen. Not all of that area but on some streets even the police dont walk by themselves.
It used to be. Mind you I was brought/dragged up on Ebor Gardens estate so Miggy is'nt that bad really. I play golf at Miggy but never through the school summer holidays. Got sick of the teenage chavs on their motorbikes riding on the fairways. few years ago a nicked 4x4 car did donuts on some of the greens.
Anyway have you sorted out this em light yet?
Yep the village is nice (one of our members live there)
NOW with a user name of "shagbite" and you know a lot about Belle Isle, can I put two & two together and make 26? Painting a mental picture right now of you lol. (no offence ment mate)
jools, if i was doing this job, i'd just put both radials into one breaker - providing i wasn't overloading the circuit. this, by definition, then becomes one circuit.
when testing zs, i'd take a reading from each leg and use the highest one.
Hahahaha!!!
hahahahaha! non taken pal.
i'm in bradford, so i know all the classiest areas round your way.....i've had the pleasure of working in beeston, gipton, halton moor, holbeck, chapeltown and seacroft. when i worked in harehills, the local scroats were always breaking in at night and robbing the circuits we'd first fixed. there was even a security guard on site - but one team of chavs would keep him penned into his cabin, whilst the other team did the robbing. very organised, up there.
it's not all glamour though. i've also had to endure the crapholes of adel and weetwood.
Pardon???? I may have to relocate, you're getting treated like royalty. Middle of last week i got given a brew with powdered milk and ZERO buscuit., when client left the room it was swiftly poured down the plughole, absolutley disgusting.
I've just read some of your posts and your not the chap I was thinking of.
BTW you need an avatar picture, how about this one lol

Going back tomorrow to finish off, hopefully, I told client I needed to get advice, there are four radial lights, 2 to each rcd. Shop lights are on same circuit as back room lights. Need to find out when I can go in when the shop is shut so I can safely isolate the CU to work safe, then I can seperate the circuits and make sure it's working correctly. I haven't even taken the cover off of the CU yet, i'm assuming the CU is labelled correctly. But i've made that mistake before

Customer in Outwood got me fish and chips with curry sauce a couple of weeks back, bless her. Small job this morning in Moortown I got coffee and McVities chocolate biscuits. Best I ever had was at Jamie Olivers place in the city, 3 times they gave me (and one occasion my mate) a free meal after finishing the job. Next time you go in or walk past have a look at the biggest chandler in the place, thats my claim to electrical fame lol. (how sad is that?)

a few years back, i worked on 'stage@leeds' - a theatre on the university campus. it wasn't the easiest environment to get a lot of work done. it was a constant battle to ignore all the crumpet!
the job in harehills was bellbrooke surgery. we took a temporary supply from the neighbouring church (st. cyprians i think). came in one morning and there was no power, went round to the church to see why and found an axe next to the swa. ----ers had hacked their way right through it! must have gone with a right bang. just wish the wooden handle had been **** wet through when he took a swing. although, maybe that's a bit harsh.
