Buckingham Palace Rewire

[Toneyz]

Phil from London will be on here asking how to put up light fitting now he's taken down the old one.

 

[telectrix]

he can always get Delboy and Rodney to fit it.

I strongly suspect stooges and stages,for the vid...

I also suspect either full access to floors/areas,or,if single rooms,then a giant basket of Wagos...

Either way,i refer back to something i was told as a kid...Believe nothing you hear - and only half of what you see

If you only believe half of what you see I will be slim again....

I used to have dealings with the Telecoms maintenance side of things for the Palace of Westminster and would visit 3 or 4 times a year to liaise with their people.

Got to given a couple of "behind the scenes" guided tours and it was fascinating to see all the hidden passageways, staircases and such like, plus hear some of the insider gossip about the some the more famous MP's etc...

Can better that. In Bristol a few years ago in a cafe on Whiteladies Road just along from the BBC. I was in a cafe getting lunch and got chatting to Sir David Attenborough. He was in Bristol as the natural history stuff was or may still be based there.
Found him to be one of the most approachable, humble sincere people I ever met. He is one of those people you could spend a lifetime talking too as he has seen so much. I had recently come back from holiday in South Africa and talked about the evil people doing caged hunting of the big 5 and poaching.
I had to leave the cafe as I had to get to back to work but it was one of the best lunch breaks I have had.

Where's the PPE? Ye gods, they would all be off site on my watch.

Those are some very well dressed electricians pulling those wires in.

And some very highly qualified engineers (it appears), getting their hands dirty, pulling cables.

Typical bosses, mention cameras and they all want to help out.

That's probably 'becaws' Lizzy has told em to take down the dirty great big site information board at the gates. Bloody plebs.

Me old man house had the vulcanised singles in slip conduit, before he had it rewired in the 1960's. The cable was in good nick, just poor at the terminations, where somebody had been messing with it

I muck in with the best of them still, although you wont find me in a shirt an pants if I know i'm going to be doing hands on work.

In fact the only real time I'll dress up like that is for sales meetings an I'm being forced.
