I'm not surprised giles :)
anyone who can drink for 24 hrs straight should get a medal
I dont know how you young lads do it???

my auld fella was 65 recently and he feels this is a recession too far for him,he has got through the previous 3 in his working life but now he wants the magners and slippers in the garden
I loved his quote about his trowel (which looks like a witches hat)

"i only use this now for clearing up dog &*^%"

why take the chance? :;):

I was quoting a job recently and things were going well with the customer
anyway it was looking like a goer and she says "how much can we pay a week?"
one of the big home improvement companies had quoted her £20 a week for 10 years for her drive :angry:
i made my excuses and left
