Indeed, half my house is blue/brown, the other half is black/red since reg changes where grandfathered in and the wiring has been added to (some places clearly by a knowledgeable individual others..not so much).

I spent the first day after we bought it and moved in going around with a screw driver, side cutters a notepad and enough swearing to make a pirate with Tourette’s blush.

It’ll need a full rewire at some point, while I can do it myself to a commercial standard our regs require a currently qualified electrician sign off (mine expired many years ago) so I’ll just pay someone to do the lot.

It’s annoying but I’ve seen enough horror shows to see why it’s nescessary.
