    Nick clearly you see him more than your apprentice and as a friend the lads been taught well and his work ethics are fantastic.
    A credit to you.

    One tip - when I disconnect from the isolator I put a bit of tape over the top, just to stop crud falling in to it.

    I feel for Adam being allergic to wasp stings as well, with the severity of his reaction he should ask the doctor for an epi pen.
    I would also suggest you get some citirizine tablets from the chemist and keep them in the first aid box.
    If you do get stung then imediatly take one and it will help mitigate the reaction.
    Citirizine is antihistamine but being in tablet form is quicker acting and more effective than cream.

    24:41 - You actually do have a massive arm! It's not easily noticeable that you are a unit from your videos ha!
    Always those scenarios where a worker isn't able to be with you on a day where you otherwise would need them that you see their value!
    Keep pumping out the content, enjoying the longer style videos as of late even though I know it's more editing work.
    Thumbs up.

    I’ve always worked in a team environment albeit an industrial setting. Working as a team builds morale. The current company I’m with is a very nomadic experience. Working away staying in hotels alone of longish durations. Customer based sites where the blokes already have a rapport.

  • @B60901

    Great video as always Nick. The board change in real time is a really bad idea which the screwfix DIY brigade will definitely copy. It's your channel so post what you think is right but don't forget the influence youtube has these days. We do apprenticeships and go to college to learn these things which are highly dangerous in the wrong hands.

    Hope Adam is ok. I get what you are saying, I started helping a mate do plumbing on the side, enjoyed it, when to college as an adult doing NVQs working towards my Gas cert. enjoyed working with my mate but hated working in houses on my own, when he moved away ( after a divorce) I just stopped plumbing, as I did not want to work on my own. And working as a team is a lot quicker.

I'm considering getting back into it after some forced time out and what I like about you is you're not trying to be one of those gobby contractors ( I came across quite a few. All pretence). You're a down to earth, decent, hardworking guy with great ethics. Cheers!

    I have a TT system in my house and the earth connection is via a fabric-covered SWA single cable. 6 copper strands are insulated with rubber which in turn is covered in spiral-wound steel wire and then a fabric outer covering. I've no idea where the earth spike is as the wire just disappears into the wall cavity never to be seen again, but since the Ze is a very acceptable 51 ohms it stays in use.

Always said the tails clamp should come as standard, i always order one so got a spare now. I tend to spread my kit about too. Starts off tidy but by end of day nearly got whole contents of van scattered about!

    Nick. Adam should get a skin patch test if that’s a reaction to a wasp sting I have a nasty feeling he could be anaphylactic to some other allergens that he does not know about. He could come across that in later in life. I would very strongly suggest he has the skin patch as a precaution it could save his life. He may also have to carry an epipen as part of that. I admire your discussion on mental health I also think that your videos also help you in that you can interface with us and let you know many of us who see these really appreciate your banter and talk and you are inspiring many younger sparkys. If there anything we can do for Adam a nice little present to welcome him back it would be nice. What about a nice tool we can do a contribution to that online.
