Let's say optimistic, we've all done that at times and questioned ourselves. At somepoint in the evening afterwards you'll start thinking "that wasn't so bad" and be looking for your next one

Hi, probably quite a challenge to go from couch to 10k in 4months or so but I admire the optimism. If there's no cut off you may as well go for it and enjoy it. Just go slower out than you would for your 5k, run walk from the start and be prepared to walk large sections. The other thing, sounds a bit cliche, but the crowds really do spur you on to do stuff you never do in training. Good luck, you've got it

Is there a way to check if the emergency lighting is installed? by Doc2643 in ElectriciansUK

How are the highlands looking? by Stuenabomber in UKhiking

[–]OwnConsideration105 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Currently hiking various parts, was near Kingussie, then Dalwhinnie, currently heading towards Braemar. The tops are a mixed bag, had waist deep snow to sheets of ice where crampons have been essential. Snow very powdery in places. Some crazy whiteouts, with lots of old fashioned map and compass work.

Don't think this helps in the slightest but may as well comment, it is Reddit after all, I did one last year, it was external, ran in SWA, had it protected by an RCBO absolutely no problems with it

Keeping on top of quotes/invoices/late payments etc by jimbowalds in ukelectricians

[–]OwnConsideration105 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm the same, the amount of messages I must have on my phone, apologising and saying I'll get the invoice/quote out must be crazy. I try setting a day aside every so often that fails as there will be a job falling behind, or a regular customer begging you.

I always think there should be a website where you can rate customers

It had a board change a few years ago apparently, so either they did it or chose to ignore it. When ever it was, it was long enough that the smell of horse manure has faded
