Mr gen

H Zetter is this still available?

done

👍 lets hope

done and couldn't agree more as a community we need to really give this our best. not just sit around and bleat. I was a little apprehensive of giving my full opinions in the answers in case it gave them food for thought on how to fight back.

Out of interest where did you find the parts you needed?

I am glad that you are on the way to getting your problems sorted although the companies response times and the time they are taking to repair their faults seems a little woeful.

if you are still up and don't mind waiting a little while give them a call, our boys would be out within the hour and would be grateful of the overtime

there will be no charge from the electricity board. if the fault is found to be on your side of the meter they will just tell you to get an electrician. My bet is that it is a neutral conductor broken on their side. when you draw a current it flows down the live conductor (wire) there is a comparative current that flows down the neutral conductor back the the transformer is that has broken it cannot flow hence you don't get the power needed. if you turn on some high usage appliances like the cooker, shower, electric heaters do the lights dim or go off? sorry I meant to say all at the same time

Sounds like you might have a neutral fault call 105 and ask your local electricity board to come and do an earth loop impedance test this will test the return path back to the transformer you should be getting a reading below 0.35 ohms. I am guessing that you are a single phase customer fed via a single phase transformer if so likely hood of any appliance damage is small. A three phase supply and transformer on the other hand can do a lot of damage. Call them any time they will have a 24 hour call out.

Hopefully it’s just a rubbish report trying to get more bad publicity against shooting. What makes me think this is that the BBC is usually the first to gleefully show the footage. If this true and it is a fairly new shoot it does smack a bit of arrogance.

With pressure building from NRW, LACS and the Welsh Labour government reports like this are not going to help I do hope its not true as it seems to be a new shoot and the area of ground where is allowed shooting in Wales is under threat and shrinking rapidly.

Absolutely superb.

look forward to seeing the finished project. you have an incredible talent, I wish I had.

Opinel knives are great an I have for as long as I can remember owned 1 or two. The carbon blades almost rust before your eyes but are very easy to get back to new with a bit of emery paper but getting one open that has got wet or left in a wet coat pocket can be a right beggar, best left on a radiator over night to shrink the wood back down.
