i read the other day that most people keep a few quids worth of junk in the garage and park their multi grand car on the drive
got some junk in my garage if you want it?

Exactly what i do mainly because once in my garage getting out of the car is a nightmare.

I used to keep almost every mcb I removed but found that I ended up with loads. Now I have just a few on a DIN rail screwed to the back door of the van (inside). As for the old boards, take the busbar out for the tat box and bin the rest.

No im an apprentice at the moment we are putting in new electrics for new kitchens and bathrooms so installing new kitchen ring , cooker, shower, lighting and shed supply so all of the fuse boards are too small. So on the finals i am changing fuse board second fixing kichen and bathroom and doing a full electrical test. One bloke is going round 1st fixing then im following him round couple of days later.
