The wizard made the jump, it was a great leap of faith. Being known as the fastest site plasterer known to human kind was a hard title to leave behind. I done it for the money, I spend half my time these days prepping up. Then putting 40m2 on, double coated may I add, I know, I know...... For...

Very rare you see boarding like that ever, I'd probably say your average boarder on site would be about one step up from the original photos

Tax returns put off until 2021 now aswell F*****g hell

The que in the bargain booze at the bottom of my road was out the door lads buying couple of crates each

Mad mad times I was born in 92 and have honestly never seen world governments reacting to anything like this in my life time.

In all due respect mate, we haven't got a clue. I highly doubt a Tory government would want to destroy its own economy because that's what's happening A virus that didn't exisist on the planet 15 weeks ago has managed to get a decent foothold on nearly every continent on the planet.

To be the people who think this isn't going to happen, aboustely brain dead. You can like it or not but right now it's not even up for debate, we are going into Spain, France style lockdown very very soon.

Just add this stuff to the the many reasons I swerve 99 percent of all domestics. Most customers don't have a clue and will expect a ceiling skimming for 40 quid. I honestly love hearing customers on here moaning about the standard of plastering they've had done in a room for £80. They deserve...

No amount of bonding or scrim is gonna stop a crack caused by movement in the building, these buildings weigh 1000s of kgs, unfortunately scrim and bonding isn't rated for that. Removing all old wood around windows or chimney breast before beading will help stop the wood suck moisture out of...

There is firms out there now that if you can't one coat a 100 metres in a day they just take you off site and shoot you.

Throw a few handful of cement powder into the bonding mix and you've got yourself bonding 15

Everyone my age or younger loves to quit, that's why. They won't stick nothing out. 30 plus lads started the 3 year NVQ that I did, 3 of us passed out and finished. 90 percent of my course were only there because the government at the time were paying them EMA to be there
