The Great Flicker Mystery

One crisp Monday morning, just as the week was getting into full swing, I got a call from Mrs. Reynolds in Plymstock. She'd been battling a persistent, mysterious flickering of the kitchen light—one moment it glowed steadily, the next it danced like a disco ball.

What began as a minor annoyance had turned into evening suspense: could her light be haunted?

On arriving, I was greeted by the soft tap-tap of the flickering bulb. I flipped the switch—flick... flash... flicker... then it steadied. First clue: a loose connection.

With careful hands and two decades of wiring wisdom, I gently relocated the switch connections and tightened everything up. “Ah-ha!” I thought. No more flicker.

Mrs. Reynolds turned on the light again—and there it was, this time steady, calm, no dancing lightbulb routines.

Relieved, she chuckled: “You’re my hero, Dave! I can’t have ghost bulbs keeping me guessing.”

I reassured her, “No ghosts here—just a little electrical TLC to keep your home bright and safe.”

A quick safety check later and the job was done—as always, clean, professional, and VAT-free.
