Come on guys its just "chucking a few wires in, how hard can it be" as a bricky once said to me. As the OP has gone AWOL I guess he is either found a sparky or is in A&E with a nasty little burn. Either way if he puts up a picture I am sure that we will all give away our collective experience of 100s of years for free so that he can get the job done on the cheap and bling up his house.

I used to live in a shoebox in the gutter, couldn't afford jack, but thanks to the government who created the industrial training levy (mid sixties) and EITB, i got to go to a training centre run and on the premises of T.I. and i got paid in cash (brown envelope) really. Before i was 17 i could gas weld, turn, file some block, oh and wire a 2G2W switch - eh those were the days

But then isnt nuclear physics "just some atoms"!

I would if you had closed the inverted coma's i assume it's a quotation ? It's reads as a statement! It an't the only thing you don't know when to close.
