Dish Donkey, LOL :laugh: :laugh:

That a great description of some of the non-technical engineers I've seen recently, also don't get me started on the lovely people I pass when going in to the office (on the same road as Sky in Isleworth).

Obvisously excluding yourself from my little rant Officer Dibble  :wink: :kiss:

So far (in 7 months) only seen Sir Alan Sugar in his Rolls waiting to get into Sky.

Get to see more celebs down at my second base in Knightsbridge, so far my spotted list is: -

Amanda Holden
Eddie Jordan (asked me where the toilet was)
Kim Cattrel
Ticco Torres (Drumer from Bon Jovi)

And finally this weeks spotted, Len Goodman from Strictly come dancing  :laugh:

Wierd thread subject, but stay with me!  :wink:



Will some of the appropriately trimmed CT100 downlead cable fit in the slots of Gulfs' excellent GTI footrest?  Maybe hold it in place with some grip-mat, or carpet tape.  Then it would look like the raised rubber profiles of the standard loud and quiet pedals!  :undecided:

i have 400 metres of ct100 on my van, will have a go and see if it fits and report soon as.



Isn't someone on here a $ky installer or sommat?  :smiley:


Im an engineer not a dish Donkey T_T  :wink:

I'd have thought you would have been proud of being hung like a donkey!  :tongue:  :grin:  :grin:

Edit: Tried it T_T, and it looks shocking, slots slightly too big for snug fit. and cutting into shape wont cover up ends well. Crap!

Which type of cable do you use - the one with the flexy foamy insulator thingy, or the more rigid plastic with holes type?

And how about using an additional extra layer of the black outer over the "full" piece - as though you were skinning a snake lengthways, if you get my drift?  :undecided:
