I went after college to do a homer but I had limited material as I didn't know what to expect. I Went to change the bath taps for a bath mixer but before I cut any pipe I noticed the brass fittings are stamped p,d,m can someone tell me if the copper pipe will be metric or imperial. So I know if I need green rings for next time I go round I'll be prepared.

Any old skool plumbers out there I just want to say I respect the patience and skill that was involved compared to nowadays.
as this bath pipe work must of been done first then the bath.
 
I can't really answer your question as I can't say I've seen it.

What you want to do is buy a few Stanley organisers and get a few fittings of each in compression and end feed and male irons female irons type thing. Then olives, fibre washers etc then you don't have to worry.

Then continue for a few years and you will have almost a mobile merchant like most of us on here
 
Good idea I'll do that. I didn't know you can get imperial and metric yorkie couplin. Amazing the stuff you can buy nowadays.

Just for you lol
I got about six boxes left from a job lot I bought
 
would you be willing to sell some (ie one or two boxes)?
 
You can get solder ring (identical to Yorkshire) 3/4" x 22mm connectors in other brands
