Get one of those screwdrivers with a light in the handle and a wire with a crocodile clip while you're at it. They are invaluable for poking round and finding what's live when the switch is in different positions and you can undo screws with them

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
