CUSTOMER: I've just rewired my house. I need you to do me a certificate.

SPARKS: Have you any type of qualification to carry out this work?

CUSTOMER: No.

SPARKS: Have you informed Building Control?

CUSTOMER: No.

Do you actually even have a copy of BS7671?

CUSTOMER: No.

SPARKS: Have you any experience of this type of work?

CUSTOMER: Well, I used to be an odd job man in Venezuela, so I know a bit about about wires and stuff.

SPARKS: Why didn't you say so before? Can't see any problem with that, I'll be round in 10 minutes with a certificate. Fifty quid cash sound o.k.?
 
So........, just to recap, you managed to clear the fault by cutting the "green and yellow bits" out of your entire lighting circuit? Have I got that right, Sir? What an inspired genius you are!
 
of course I trust tradesmen with Ryobi/Black and Decker/Green Bosch tools, come and work for me.

We had a gay customer who insisted that because he was spending pink pounds all tradesmen had use the Makita pink range of power tools, the contract was substantial so the guvnor bought complete new kits for everybody and charged them to the client.
 
No... there's nothing wrong with your lights, fluorescents always hum when they can't remember the words.
