  1. Alpha 3 can be used on pressurised system Got their technical departmentto bell plumber about it So far impressed
  2. Its lack lubrication wrecks the injector pump Classic scally trick when sacked Pour bottle domestos into diesel fuel tank Buggers lubrication and injection pump fails after he has left for last time One reason for sending them straight home and paying them off
  3. Just fitted alpha 3 Saw it in shop and came home and checked reviews all 5* now installed and running Seems very good, heating large ( 4 bed ) farmhouse Extra radiators going in next week Plumber seemed very interested as he's finding cost of oil too high and he's been looking for suitable stove - he seemed impressed as its solid and simple Time will tell if I've got it right
  4. There used to be a pub near bury lancashire Guy used to bring rat in and let it run round under his shirt I think he then bit it to death Pub had quite a reputation .........back in 70's Good old days
  5. £300 for pair knackered jeans ! I'm told president bush paid fortune for worn texan stetsan
  6. Just found these jeans Copied from pair a stone worker has worn out They are worth more worn out than new Grim Tim Stone Mason Replica - Nudie Jeans Online Shop
  7. If its telegraph pole it'll have markings on it .... Dont they carve depth lines and stuff on them too
  8. Worked with guy who'd been professional vermin killer Said on the boats they used to pour dettol ino the bilges and make sure there was no water available They then put bowls of strychenine out ( with painted warning signs on floor) and left them overnight Next morning there was ring of dead rats round every bowl He said worst he ever saw was factory making those seed things you put in budgies cage They just backed lorry into factory andtipped seed ( linseed?) ono the heap Full of mice They sealed factory and gassed it He said when they went in every flat surface covered with dead mice Including the roof beams
  9. Connected my new woodburner wednesday Not been out since :-)
  10. You getting clicking from heater area? Octavia ( vw audi seat skoda group ) has clicking, apparently downloading updated software will fix....
  11. I went to see some so called consultants in manchester. They were no use to me but what they were doing was quite clever and may be of use to you They were looking for businesses who worked in a tight area With decent profit margins, typically guy putting up conservatories, kitchens etc They then ran a google adwords campaign JUST IN THAT AREA Aim was to be the top google ad for that service IN THAT AREA I believe it worked a treat and customers very happy with their services... Plus they could turn ads off if they wanted a holiday They described their service as bringing in one very profitable job every week Their typical customer would aim to get enough work to keep their lads busy The boss would essentially use the ads to bring in leads and he would close them to keep the lads busy ....... They were charging £250 a week, but if they brought in a few grand profit why not ? I guessed they were spending less than £20 on adverts... So good for them too They were all driving maseratis Next step SEO ?
  12. Crap advert I know But people click to get answer to the question
  13. What you selling? If it's a local service make sure you only advertise locally..... Will keep costs down If you ask a question in your advert you'll get a better clickthrough rate Summat like Hamdogg Firewood Supplies Check What Moisture Content Will Be Most Economical For Your Fire Hamdogg.co.uk Capital letter to start every word
  14. Correct that IP address wouldn't work 100%
  15. Google not unaware of this problem I had a supplier in leeds, when I dropped them they had whole office clicking on my ads all day - so I altered google ads not to show in Leeds In truth could probably be sorted through adwords but that was fastest solution for me IP address wouldn't work as some networks change IP address everytime you log on ......
  16. Bit concerning facebook is being "edited" like that .....
  17. Have we heard if they have been charged wuth anything?
  18. Can't imagine why owner never comes back to see his estate ..... But I met guy in restaurant when I worked in London who lived in Chelsea and had estate in devon He hated countryside and never went back ....... I suppose if I had flat in London and estate in Ireland I'd never go to London..... Takes all sorts
  19. I used to spend £3k a month on adwords Ok if you spend £50 and make £300 Useless if you spend £50 and make £50...... dearest clickthrough cost I have seen was £33.00 per clickthrough ( personal injury solicitor) cheapest I've seen £0.05 ( Llama Walking ) So you need to know what your selling ..... And (average) profit per sale ..... So next questions WHAT ARE YOU SELLING, WHATS YOUR AVERGE PROFIT PER SALE If your a tree surgeon/ firewood producer I'd also ask WHAT AREA DO YOU COVER Get a strategy together then .......
  20. Once went to formal dinner Woman across from me had hairy chest AND low cut dress Incredibly distracting
  21. I remember when an irish accent made you worried.... They might have been buyers for saudi military ....thats for police to determine Sensible to watch carefully ..... But not overreact I'm not going to shoot my neighbour because his wife wears a headscarf and he has a beard I've met some lovely muslims and some horrible christians .... And vice versa ........
  22. Fray Bentos Pie - had one when I was a teenager - still remember the crust ..... And you got free dog food dish too ! Forty years later and they are still making them? Amazing But Joe the butcher tells me which farm the meat I buy comes from And what flavour ( breed ) the cow was Think I'll stick with Joe
  23. Suicide?

He Was upset by his dog trying to find its master in the chopper .........
