Having a new cooker delivered Thurs and need old one taking out and new one fitted....anyone on here a gas fitter or can you recomend anyone...would like it doing friday if poss?

have you checked to see if it is on a quick release coupling?
You may not need a gas fitter

think it is but i dont mess with gas

Sent you a pm mate

even on a quick release coupling I'd want a fitter to check it out, gas, electricity and HMRC, the three things you get an expert in for!

but the local butcher will do for any brain or heart surgery LOL

good shout mate.

I've never directly procured professional services for medical care, on the other hand, I have had numerous central heating systems and re-wires done.

the only reason any of us get paid is because we do something the customer either can't, or choses not to, do.

I agree old son, let the pros do the work that can injure either yourself or your pocket especially lecky and gas, agree 100%
However the scars on the back of my neck make me think my last surgeon was in fact a local butcher

A 3 pin plug is a quick release electrical coupling but I don't employ an electrician every time I want it removing.

Still, if you are not comfortable doing it yourself. Call in an expert
