|  |     Mr Barton  0252 617230.
    
    I found him very helpful and reasonable.He replaced my central
    heating/water timer and move a power switch further up my kitchen
    wall for 25 pounds.

|  |     I'm not sure what hours he works but he came to us during the day.
    Yes he covers Basingstoke (I live a Lychpit).

| 200.4 | Can anyone help ? | COMICS::SUMNERC | OpenVMS Counter Intelligence | Mon Feb 10 1997 08:25 | 14 | 
|  |     As this note is a little old, can anyone still recommend a half reasonable
    electrian in the Big "B" ?
    
    So far I've tried to employ a chap who never returns phone calls and
    doesn't come round on the day he says and a mad bloke that phones up
    before I get up and wants to start work very early in the morning (just
    for fun he usually arrives an hour earlier then agreed, then leaves
    wondering why I wasn't up/in).
    
    All I actually want is an outside light fitting.
    
    Thanks for any suggestions,
    
    Chris

|  | Well, the guy at abbey electrics seemed nice when he came 
round to do a quote, but then again it was for a complete
rewire of the house which might make it a bit more worthwhile 
for them to be customer oriented. 
BTW outside lights aren't incredibly difficult to fit - 
my dad and I did mine and I think I could have done it on 
my own, except maybe drilling through the wall to put the
cables in for the switch might've been a little bit too much 
like hard work, especially since I only have a little 
hand drill :-)

    Jo,
    
    I don't want Chineham to go out when I put the outside light on. ;-)

     I'll do it, if you like.
    
     Mind you, I'm not qualified and I'd cost a few quid in travel
    expenses.
    
     How about asking at Homebase ? Look one up in the YP ?

From what I remember from living there no-one goes 
further than the chineham arms anyway. :-)
