I’m all for that .  

 

I’m a small cog in the process that keeps the energy flowing into the tanks and batteries of the good people (and a few knobbers, you know who you are  ) that keep this forum alive. 
 

It’s a thankless task but deep down I know they offer a prayer of gratitude at bedtime.

As it goes I have never had covid , never had the flu and can't remember the last common cold I had .

Are you sure you're not like Bruce Willis in that film where he was actually dead but hadn't realised it.

 

Have you checked yourself for a pulse recently?

Your anecdotal story of a British Chippy crew being expected to intuitively understand the complexities of a Continental Kit House is just silly. Sounds like the school cheaped out and took the lowest quote without considering if they where qualified for the job. 
 

 

It's too late and I'm too tired to address every point, but I'll address this one.

 

It's probably the most thermally efficient school in Britain. It requires no heating except for Monday mornings and is subject to all the weather on the West Coast of Scotland. The very last thing Highlands and Islands Council did on this school is cheap out. It's just built to a higher standard than the British contractors were used to.

 

And apologies for forgetting you're in Angus. Not quite Aberdonian 😁

The most thermally efficient school in he U.K. did not consider hiring the right professionals for the job? Sounds retarded. 

 

Let me guess, they voted Remain. 🤣

 

Even here in Brazil Angus is famous.

You’ll get prevarication, obfuscation and if all else fails they’ll wheel out Covid.

 

 

 

 

 

Don’t blame Brexit for our economic woes

WWW.TELEGRAPH.CO.UK

On a range of metrics - from trade to inflation and the financial sector - the downsides of leaving the EU...

Covid and the fools who bought into it and the insane measures taken to supposedly protect us blah blah blah would seem to have served us up far more of a shitstorm than the results of  a democratic decision have.

I mean seriously. What kind of school tenders and cheaps out on the quote from a bunch of cowboys and then somehow you find a way to blame that on Brexit? 
 

Never before has this meme been more relevant.

No, that's just the council pay off for him doing it on a cycle lane.
