Had a call from a guy who was doing a bit of diy.

Just had a call and text from a new customer.

Was putting up a mirror and there was a double socket below.

Classic.

At least the mirror will hide the big hole in the wall where the joint box is situated.

He's looking at the man in the mirror, he's asking himself to change his ways, if he wants to make the world a better place he better put down his drill and make that CHANGE!

.....jamon......!

Help out your customer with this video, tell him to pay particular attention at 1:34..

It's always good advice to avoid studs and live wires

I was asked to quote on a job that was effectively to put up some curtains. Up that side of the doorway was all the cables you'd expect to find in someone's house (mains tails, light switches and alarm panel. The Owner said "I stopped my Husband drilling this cause I thought it might be a problem" ... "Good call" replies Wilko "And I'm not going to do it either unless you allow a day's labour to fix it when it goes wrong". I did end up installing her curtains, but not in the safe zone .
