Oooh, lovely! Looks idyllic :lol: :lol:

I spotted that plant in your other pics - it's bamboo. You have an endless supply of tomato sticks. Woo.

Off for a spot of window shopping then Dicso? :wink: Last time I was in Hamsterjam I quickly discovered the wacky backy they sell these days just makes you want to lie on the floor...

I don't think we can let the passing of Farmers' shed's grand opening without some sort of ceremony? it's been close to all our hearts of late :mrgreen:

I went to Hamsterdam in 1988, that's where I learnt about all the different Shandy's available :shock: :oops:

The copper bar is the busbar that joins the mcb's to the main breaker or rcd.
Frank you haven't got an rcd fitted in that board, are you going to wire one in series before the dizzy board or squeeze one in there? Your lighting circuit should not be rcd protected but everything else is.
BTW your incoming is 2.5mm, you want to watch that! Run another cable in parallel back to the feed point to turn it into a ring. Also check what size breaker the spur to the shed is coming off; there's no point wiring up 32's in your new board if the feed is connected to a 16!
