If you are usig a decent cable, it will probably just push through
without much
fuss.


Nice to know the options though if it doesn't :(


It's just great when it seems to be going through OK so you start to shove
it all in, then you get a nasty suspicion that something's wrong, because
you're meeting more and more resistance. Of course it's dropped into the
cavity, and when you try to pull it back you can't because it's all tangled
up! Bugger!
Incidentally I've done wuite a lot of work to my website recently. There's a
lot of new stuff on there. One day I will write something about the hazards
of drilling holes in people's houses for my website. I've many a tale to
tell. Meanwhile, take a look at
http://www.wrightsaerials.tv/stories...-to-drill.html
Have a look round the site while you're there, and give me a bit of feedback
if you would.

With javascript disabled in the browser, your whizzy menus don't allow
allow navigating around the site properly.

There also seem to be some images which haven't been resized, merely
displayed at a smaller size by using width/height tags, this makes them
slow to download,

e.g.

http://www.wrightsaerials.tv/images/...0ch imney.jpg

as used in

http://www.wrightsaerials.tv/service.../domestic.html

A couple of the .PDF files don't use your Acrobat icon to indicate this,
but plenty of good stuff as ever.

Hilarious :)

Bill, I've viewed your site before and think it is excellent, aerial
issues and photography are very amusing and the reference links are very
useful.

Ahh, I see what you mean. I have just emailed the webmaster thus:

Hello Mike

http://www.wrightsaerials.tv/roguesgallery/view.html

When you click on the actual thumbnail (as opposed to the word 'view') of
Image 198 (the dexion arms) you are directed to the 'coax in the gutter'
picture.

Some sharp eyed bugger has just informed me of this.

I hope you do not object to the appellation 'sharp eyed bugger'

Not sure if you're referring to me or Andy B, but regardless it's relatively
easy for us sharp eyed young-uns to tell the difference between a pair of
extended brackets, and a plastic gutter with a cable in it. Obviously for
all you older folk who probably struggle to remember which way round your
pants go on in the morning, it's much harder to spot such subtle
differences!
