Yep. You should see him with customers when they ask for extra sockets that they haven't paid for/not in the quote. That man does not take any sh*t from anyone (last week proved that one lol). He had a face on him like he was chewing a wasp covered in lemon juice, customer backed down for some reason pmsl.

Dont start talking about ladders with Glenn, he did'nt read the instructions on the side and fell off PMSL :rofl:

Nice tester you've got there Glenn, pity you left it in the back of the gaffers van yesterday and you had to borrow mine this morning. If you break it you pay for it lol. Anything to help out a mate :wink:

Haha I'm not surprised mate, just been doing some of mine tonight and the series of pics almost matches identically to one of the units. Don't worry though, I'm about half the size of you and won't steal them, in fact I'm almost a wirey and stunted type :D

well...i`m sure you could just `airbrush` me out of the pics or something...you would of course have to paste your own image in pose on them...and just hope you hands line up with the MFT/prods etc.....
i know this would officially make you an impostor but hay ho...
its amazing what can be done on a PC these days isn`t it....

right:
the pic shows me carrying out a Ze to the property....i do this before any board change to confirm there is actually a proper earthing to the property...
now, this being flats after i had confirmed there was a good earth to the building i then got a Zdb at the board before replacing it...
the PFC i put down was the one i got when confirming the Ze in the pic....its going to be higher than the one i get at the board isn`t it...so as far as i`m concerned its covered...
hope this clears up any confusion.
Glenn.

Biff seriously I think you need to take a slightly more light hearted approach to comments on this thread, if we all just wrote nice job glen then it would be a very boring thread wouldn't it. One minute you want to take the p**s out of people and write very blunt to the point replies then a couple of people comment on something you don't like and we aren't fit to lace his boots. Get off the fence and decide what you want.

It's all just a bit of fun on here if every picture was perfect it wouldn't be as much fun.i await your film and I'm sure comments will be made but nothing meant but a bit of fun. And biff its ok to come out now from between glens --- cheeks we've all made friends.
