While we're waiting for the next one to arrive...

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I had that problem with someone who was meant to be mending my electric meter - three bloody times it took before they came....

Gas board are no better - worse in fact. The answer is...sort it yourself (says the bloke who flooded his garage in an inch of water whilst 'sorting it himself' with the sink :eek: :urff: :lol: )

DIY. Love it. Dontcha baby.

I subscribe to the school of DDIY, I'm a designer I don't fix plumbing so why do plumbers/admin types/accountants/personel officers/IT managers etc. think they can design?

Completely agree with you. It may well give you a warm glow of satisfaction to say you've done it yerself, but for me it's more satisfying to see the job done right. 8)

Which is why we're letting someone else install the new walls, electrics, plumbing, furniture etc.

I can manage flatpack furniture and simple decorating. Beyond that, I know my limits :lol:

I had alot of damp coming through in the bathroom of my old flat so I phoned up my landlord and said he needed to do something about it as I thought some tiles had come off the roof, he turns up and looks at it and says "You sort it out and I'll re-imburse you". I was so stunned I went "Yeah, okay" then realised what I had just said. The next day I was walking through town and saw an advertising borad where his building company was doing some work and on it said "damp-proofing specialist" :roll:

Having spent the last couple of years subsisting off amateur software, I feel that the sentiment should be extended to programmers who pick their own colour schemes :von:

That said, I do my website and record art myself...oh well, pots and kettles ;D
