They have a good eye on Bradistan anyway.

Half the Taliban are from Burnley.


The good thing about them boys is that they like being killed so they don't pick up any experience.

Not like them wily Irish terrorists who cunningly tried to survive. Until the SAS caught up with them that is.

Alright my friends,

The guy I've lined up: he says he's happy with bank transfer. He's insured for injury at work and public liability. Good signs.

Will start next Friday and says it'll take 5 days. Customer from a previous job says he was grafter, trustworthy but "optimistic", I says "optimistic?" "Yes, with timescales because he likes to take his time... Bit of perfectionist"

The job was fine that I looked at, everything was straight and smooth inc the ceiling. There was a hairine crack in one area but nowt 2 mins with polyfilla wouldn't rectify.

One thing that is unusual though is he says he prefers to screw 25mm Celotex to the raters then follow it over with 12.5mm/9mm pb rather than use 37.5mm insulated board. I can't really object to this except to say any savings in materials will cost me more in labour so net effect is £0, but he says that is how he prefers to work. Any comments on this are welcome.

Cheers

more work for him . I’d rather just bang up the foam back board .
 
Oooh, good idea!! I'll get a dog piss & cider diffuser; make him feel right at home.

Not calling a white mate though, rather resort to one of the junkie plasterers that visit the pharmacy in store. Some of them even resist the urge to help themselves to stock. Could well be decent lads just fallen on hard times.

Fook me tapit new business plan for you, plasterer enhancers and deterrence,

Cider and dog piss plasterer enhancers to groom plasterers into your home

Body odour infused curry powder deterrents to scare you away plasterers and doubles up to keep foxes out of the garden,

You could give away a free roll of tape with every product sold you've already got your first customer.

It's being launched end of the year .
plasterers usually have to find something less taxing on the body as they age or come up with a unique invention that will see them out to retirement.

Hi Gavine

I'm happy enough doing what I do, the hours are good, it's local, I get to spend time with my little boy and the best of all alternate with the missus (she works the opposite days doing a similar job)- so only a minimum of nagging.
