  1. Threads on its arse anyway so…
  2. I wonder if there’s any trade related forums where someone starts a thread. ’We earn a bit too much money for our work don’t we?’
  3. Anyone who earns a living from any specific work is a professional.
  4. Ha ha! Ask a question, doesn’t like the answers. Flounces out.
  5. You’re not making any sense.
  6. I suppose the closer one gets to your expected life span (say 80 years) the less you feel you’ve been short changed if you die, you’re getting your money’s worth so to speak. Whereas, as a younger man, with seemingly endless years ahead, the idea of death was terrifying. Dunno, ask me on my Deathbed!
  7. As Woody Allen said ‘I’m not scared of dying, I just don’t want to be there when it happens’
  8. Do you think a dog like that is suitable for your situation?
  9. I think people are pissed off with living too long. They get to 75 or whatever and think ‘that’s enough of that, pass the whisky for my cornflakes, I don’t give a toss anymore’
  10. He’s using the ‘safety squint’
  11. Just recut it to previous.
  12. How long have you been doing it?
  13. Roof needs a bit more jiggery-pokery, but she’s done, and ready for work tomorrow. it was 6k to do it professionally. My brother volunteered to do it with my, and my groundy’s, help. total cost 2k plus time etc. But we had a laugh and learnt some stuff, so all good.
  14. He’s on FB, posted three days ago.
  15. If water is going in the air intake, it’s curtains anyway surely?
  16. I was born in 63, so grew up in the 70s, 25 years after the end of the Second World War (think 1999 to now for perspective) Anti German sentiment was widespread and accepted. Men like Beckenbauer and the West German football team with players like Muller, Gunter Netzer, Paul Brietner certainly helped us view the Germans more as people like us rather than pantomime villains. They didn’t have to keep winning titles though!
  17. Franz Beckenbauer. A personal hero, oozed class, magnificent player and man.

    If you’re going to smash a fence, do it early on. It’s done then and you can finish the job easier, knowing you can’t break it twice.

    I can’t work it out, but the cry of anger/fear is real enough.

    If you were from West Sussex I could give you a few names. You’ll have to do some networking..
