      I guess the only people interested are conveyancers (if anyone can sell a house), and insurers if you claim!

      More useful regulation from our ruling class.
      Coming to you from the office of the Fat Bastard a.k.a. The Deputy P.M. as he then was.

      No wonder it's a pile of pants.

      I suspect that the change in colours of the twin & earth might just be a bit of a giveaway.

      I made a point of buying up all the remaindered red & black twin & earth I found before it all disappeared.

      Nothing like a bit of brown & blue as a giveaway.

          Ah yes, brown & blue....

          Because of course you would expect brown, the closest of the two colours to black, to be live... wouldn't you? No? Really?

          Don't mention fire extinguishers. Sooo much easier to identify now they are all red!

            Well, I have tea in hand and should be getting started.

            Thing is, FianceHC is having a lie in - so I have MiniHC to amuse!

              If you think that's frightening, then investigate what they've done with the 3 phase colours... used to be Red, Yellow, and Blue... with Black as neutral...

              Whereas now it's Brown, Black and Grey with Blue as neutral...

              for the EU...
