This week I’ve taken on a new client. Their site rules stipulate that full high visibility clothing should be worn – trousers and top. They’re very orange! Such that the camera even blows out when I try and take a selfie! In other news, I’ve outed myself on both Twitter and Instagram as having theContinue reading “Hi Viz wanker!”

Code milky green!
I’m nursing a bit of a cold at the moment. Nothing too bad, but irritating anyway. Lateral flow test was negative. I’ve been working through it as I’ve been pretty much on my own. I found something rather sad but a sign of the modern world. A pigeon has made a nest on top ofContinue reading “Code milky green!”
That explains the smell…
A customer phoned me up the other day saying there was a burning smell, and I was ready to call out; but then she phoned me about half an hour later and said it had gone.

They successfully managed to get into one across the yard. So basically, I’m moving. I’ve applied for a new unitContinue reading “Bastards.”
Another one finished.
Advanced MXPro 5 2 loop panel installed in a stack of portacabins, providing protection for both the block itself and the adjacent large building. I love how good these panels look.
Arse!
A call at 4am resulted in me talking someone through stopping a possible fire. A contactor had overheated and the arc chute was glowing bright red. I told them to turn all the breakers on that particular circuit off this removing the load. When I got there I found this. Obviously that’s been burning. IContinue reading “Arse!”
A rather splendid place to work.
This was the view from today’s site. Working part indoors and part outdoors installing a rather fancy perimeter intruder alarm. A fantastic day to do it and a truly glorious view.
