You need to be aware that this is part of a long running hate campaign
by 'Judith' against the person who owns the kitchen.
'She' has already written to his Employers comlaining about his use of
the works computer to post usenet messages during working time, and
this seems to be the latest ruse to cause him trouble.
Apparently he has extended his kitchen, and 'she' is trying to get any
excuse to report him to the local council building regs
non-conformities.

(I'm not taking sides, they are as bad as each other, but taking
usenet grievances beyond usenet is going way too far)

[1] The local Council are completely uninterested in electrical
installations if not part of a new build or extension, or other such
improvement via Building Control. They are only forced into action if
there is a injury, and the householder complains to them.


****ing Hell.

I know which BCO is in charge of electrical inspections in the area the guy
who owns the kitchen lives.

The BCO in question is a steaming great **** with bells on who really does
deserve 230V shoving up his arsehole. (Let's just call him Mr B).
