Hope that helps.

Looks like I'm going to be going at it with the grinder tonight!! (Plasterer is coming tomorrow!!!
)
I think you confirmed what I already know, that I should fit another 25mm Conduit and single back-box, at least then I have provision for getting more cables/fittings in if required. We don't have Sky Plus yet, but of course should consider that one day we probably will.

Thanks for that.
The missus went to a local electrical suppliers a while ago to see if they could sell us a length of Sky cable as we wanted to move our Sky box and they just told her to go and look in the skip as they dump all the rolls in there after they have finished a job!! She found 3 or 4 with about 20 metres on each!!
