[QUOTE="Evans Electric, post: 77491, member: 1408"] You have reminded me of another Delboy and Rodney moment with that post , Sellers. Working in Llandudno some years ago for friends who had opened a guest house. In the cellar the guy asks if I know what this thin brass tape is nailed around the cellar and why is this doorbell not wired to the front door ? In my ignorance I said it made no sense , no batts in the doorbell ,its nothing, don't worry about it. Two years later he phones to say he now knows what the tape and bell was for , cellar now full of seawater , fire brigade pumping out, brigade bloke says when water rises it shorts out tapes and rings bell, you insert pump and remove water. Well it was no good asking me was it , never seen that set up before, the tide doesn't tend to rise very high in Birmingham does it !!!! [/QUOTE]
