This is a post about electricians in Bahrain.
It seems that I could call myself and electrician here if I wanted to. The thing is, even I know Electrics 101. Things like: water and electricity do not mix, do not overload circuits, switch off the supply before pissing around with the wiring, don’t put the wrong kind of fuses into plugs etc.
The worrying thing is, the guy that came over today to fix bodge my wiring didn’t even know these basics. I give him not much longer on this earth if he carries on like this.
Now where can I find a qualified sparky on this island???!!!!
I will end this post as I have a horrible feeling the power will go any minute n


Part of the plans for the Labour Fund is to establish professional standards for things like these. What makes an electrician an electrician? Hopefully someone there is fixing this.
Hey BT many thanks for dropping by – I had read your previous incarnation and saw that by the old virtual skiddies that you had left town. I crack open a bottle of treacly Lebanese red and look forward to more.
Cheers.
