Default G'day Everyone

Hi all. I'm an electrician from Australia, moving to the uk for a bit of an extended working holiday. Ill be trawling through the forum looking for as much info about different aspects of the job. I hope to be in the mother country by august and want to hit the ground running so to speak, so any advice will be much appreciated.

cheers Andrew

As for the beer, the only aussie beer you probably get if Fosters which yes it's ****.

about the regs not too sure but there are some differences in domestic wiring that I know of . Same **** different smell.
