Someone else mentioned a motoring link, earlier.
I'm off to the pub too, but I'll set this one up.
Electricians work on either a TT or TN system but what does the T stand for...

It was me that mentioned the motoring link but I didn't want to give the answer away.

Stabbing in the dark a bit here, but what about Terra? I think that's Latin for earth which has an electrical connection.

Close enough, it's Terre, tye French for earth and both terms describe the earthing systems available to use in UK homes according to BS7671.

Over to you Ian.

I vaguely remember the James May programme about toys and a Discovery programme about the factory. Its something mind blowing like 500 billion and the name Lego comes from a Danish phrase meaning play well. If I could remember how many were made a year then I could probably take an educated guess as to the current number. They make billions a year.

They currently make 60 billion a year, and have been around for 57 years. Last year they recycled 70 million, drop in the ocean. Don't know the total made though.

James may programme was about 3/4 years ago I think so if they make 60 billion a year now somewhere around the 680 billion mark.
