That conduit is easier to bend than I thought it would be... I am glad about this as it will make life a lot easier as I will be able to shape the conduit to follow the path I want it...
By the way, where can a man buy heat shrinks (those sleeves you place over a join between 2 electrical cables and heat shrink onto the join?)
And what sort of electrical cable should I get (is for 24V)?

heat shrink should be available from electrical suppliers, different sizes and colours

:oops:
oddly enough Natasha asked how I was going to get the cable through it after I put the bend in it :oops: ... I mumbled something about running a wire through and not to worry about it (but could not test the 'answer' as she hung about to look at the progress on the memorial... - will run wires through the other ones first, thanks for the reminder mate...

Perhaps I will just take it in and let them do it for me...

The site is looking really nice, keep up the good work. You will be able to sit and relax soon.
I hope I don't bring up any thing bad, but how did things turn out with the police? Did they disappear as the wind? We have had you in our prayers since the last news of their appearance and had not heard the out come.
Blessings to you and your family. :)

Yep, that I am as the pump only has about 5 or 6 meters on it...

About 35 meters...

well, I have to "move" the plug end that goes into the power adaptor to the end of the cable as the power adaptor will be situated in the pool shed to ensure that children do not get anywhere near it!

Joyce, we know nothing yet :?
I do have to give ANOTHER statement this Wednesday to Health and Safety as the police wont share their statement from me with them (sounds like 4 year olds on the play ground refusing to share their toys!)...
