  1. Why is it always none climbers who do this??
  2. I almost never "book work in" I give all customers a rough time frame "within the next month" for example and tell them I will ring the night before we intend to come to check that the following day is convenient.
  3. Be very careful!!! Do you do the work there and then?? A local tarmacadam contractor was prosecuted for not giving the customer a 14 day cooling off period between cold calling and carrying out the works.
  4. I was wondering if there had been a gay wedding I had missed and Marks Bullman was their adopted love child???
  5. Better than you I can believe, but not most of us.
  6. How can CS units "cease to be current"? My driving licence is pre-97 (1987), which entitles me to drive vehicles the more "up to date" license does not, so it could hardly be called no longer "current".

  11. He's talking about the "cut and climb", not the smock.
  12. Thats like blaming the rain for your leaky roof Of cause we are still overspending, its not possible to simply stop the mismanagement over night, just look at tax credits.
