Scewfix cable missing?
If it possible that they don't stock plain 2.5mm T&E grey reels?
I can only find "harmonised" (the new EU colouring) ones. Strange... |

Local Wickes had many reels of red + black 2.5mm T+E on Saturday. When quized about harmonised colours the operative looked at me as if I had just stepped out of a space ship and expressed no understanding of harmonisation. So I bought 100m.

They have it - item 95337 http://www.screwfix.com/app/sfd/cat/...88429&id=18633 - doesn't say the length - but price would suggest it is 100m also in white http://www.screwfix.com/app/sfd/cat/...88429&id=95337 (25m reel) It is cheaper than the harmonised too.

Couldn't wait and ended up buying from B&Q instead - £1 extra for the 1.5mm and £2 extra for the 2.5mm, but as I was not going to go over £45 with my order than I am still better off. |

Wikes in Worcester still have cable in the old colours if anyone is interested, saw it tonight. Dave -- For what we are about to balls up may common sense prevent us doing it again in the future!! |
