MCB breaker keeps tripping

Twin & skin is twin old cable without the earth

Was that actually a 'thing,' I thought it was a wind up!

seriously never heard it called that.....I suppose, thinking more about it, it does make sense though

Storemen....brown coats an an inordinate amount of biros  and pencils in top pocket....usually accompanied by a vernier

a most unusual breed , mainly the product of an illicit liaison between a docket and a chitty

I did a bit of work with a local spark who kept referring to a "Frying Pan"  It took me a while to realise he was talking about a "Banjo"

Ah yes. the works storeman!

I need an XYZ please.

Sorry, No, I can't give you one.

But I can see one on the shelf there.

I've been told I must always have one in stock.  -  If I let you have it I won't have one!

Time to either explode or give up and go for a brew.

remember the stores when i was an apprentice. if you wanted earth sleeving you had to specify how long. ask for anything over 5mtr and they were not usually happy to give. of course, if they supplied more than 2 metre per rewire in the first place...

often quizzed over everything. why do you need it, you were already supplied with materials for the job. well if someone specified the correct amount then i wouldnt be here. i.e the plan has 12 sockets. you get given 8 backboxes and 10 sockets... surprisingly, they did allow a full 100mtr reel of cable
