No idea. None of the trip switches have tripped and that is the limit of my knowledge

On the fuse board. I know you’ve checked the sockets switch, but did you also check the rcd switch

It can't be that, it's only some sockets and the cooker that aren't working. Everything else is fine.

Edit... Definitely not that switch!

Cooker should be on a separate RCD👍 also my sockets have two different RCDs depending on where they are in the house

Yeah, but the downstairs ones are fine. I've only got a couple upstairs. I maybe wasn't very clear. Sorry

Upstairs and downstairs will be on a different circuit as well.

 

Basically you should have a switch board with lots of various switches on it that tackle different parts of the house. It sounds like one of the switches is in the off or down position.

Will look like this?  Switches in the pic are all off. They are on when in the up position

That’s what I was trying to say and the down switch being the rcd

Yeah, I've checked all those. All of them are on. I've even tried turning them off and on (the absolute zenith of my diy knowledge) and that didn't help. Cheers pal.

Do NOT try and mess with your electrics courtesy of a YouTube video. 
 

Might feel expensive but an NICEIC sparky will find and sort the problem safely. Better that than you kill yourself or burn your house down.

The fox shite is stinking .. hoovered up a big jobby with leaves from the cherry tree..

The wet jobby sprayed my face and clothing so I can officially say I talk shite

The fox will die .

I was hoping I was going to get away with putting them up on Christmas eve and ripping the bloody things down on Hogmanay again.

A few years back I put fairy lights around one of my mirrors in my living room . I have never  took them down Since . Adds a big colour to a room . Not put up the other decs yet though . I’m a traditionalist, 12 days before and 12 days after Xmas day .

It's Xmas feckin jumper day in the office even though we are all working from home. They can ram their Xmas feckin jumpers up their collective Xmas arseholes!!

I always thought that traditionally decorations were put up (or at least lit) on Christmas Eve and removed just before the 6th of January - the Twelve Days of Christmas.

I’m not sure when this ‘twelve days before’ thing started.  It’s what loads of people did at my old work, like it was an age-old tradition but it seems a pretty new idea to me.

Been my Christmas jumper for years now.

 

I enjoy wearing it every year at work if just to have folk say "Can you wear that in a school?"

Just been to Fort Kinnaird for the first time in about 20 years.  Do you know the only thing you can’t find there?  Any sign pointing to how to get out of the sodding car park(s).

I always just go right round the outside of the car park. It's slightly longer but at least I know I'm heading in the right direction.
