Philip Voice Lanscape Juice

So people dont think it is just Tony Mc who is having trouble have a look at the reply by Philip voice the site owner. He too has been disillusioned by WOP.

I too was looking forward to the show but in the light of all these problems will not be going now either. SAD really.

I don't want to get in the middle of a private argument chaps but might I offer a few words in my company's defence:

In reply to whoever it is pretending to be somebody else:

"Just because Marshalls prefer meeting Joanna Lumley at Chelsea to hairy arsed sods like us in Coventry?"

In the interest of balance could I point out that some of my best friends are hairy-arsed midlands construction workers; but given the choice - wouldn't you?

personally I`d like to meet Joanna Lumley, thought the work she did for the Gurkhas was spot on and I`m ashamed at the way this country treated them [Gurkhas]. ???

Mr Sarti, like rab I'm well with Joanna on what she did for the gurkas but I would've liked to have seen you at the show meeting all the people who buy from you, not just the ones that pay to join your club - sorry, but that's like buying a ticket to go in a shop for me.

But not like my friend Irish Paving, I'll not boycott you for it and who knows mebbe see you there next year!

Now, now Cookie, if yer look at my post youll see that I'm keen to learn how to lay setts proply, at the show they are doing it to british standard and thats key if i'm to be able to look at coincil work and the like.

I'm far from knowin everything, we can lay and seal a decent block and Steve now WOP taught me how to lay exposed stone concrete but thats about it.
