I did it! by monicac

I did it!

One switch in my bedroom broke this morning. It was the "main swich" - if this one didn't work, the rest of switches in the bedroom didn't either. Just my luck.
It's really hard to find an electrician to do this "little" repairs; at the weekend, it's totally impossible. And I didn't want to get dressed/undressed in the dark... So I decided to give it a go. I watched some youtube videos which showed it was not that difficult, bought the necessary parts, breathed hard... and did it! I managed to change it (and the socket, becasue the new switch didn't fit the old frame and I had to change the whole thing), and everything is working. I'm ridiculously proud of myself, I know it's a simple thing, but I had never done it before.
Very impressive 😊

Well done! It is amazing what jobs we can do ourselves with the aid of a youtube video.

@illinilass @fishers @photographycrazy @Dawn @lmsa @fayefaye @johnfalconer Thanks a lot! I was very careful, I can tell you! Electricity in all the house turned off before I even think of going near a switch!
