There really are some terrible examples around of what folk do to secure
boxes. Around the back from me some cheap throw uphouses with plasterboard
walls seem to have the back boxes for switches secured by what look like
staples through the back through some holes. Quite what these hold onto is a
bit of a mystery.

I think I'm going mad!
Am I correct in saying that a dry lining back box does not need to be
screwed to a stud or noggin? Screwing only applies if fitting a steel box
in this location.
