Week 2 in the great Intergas Virgin freebie thread

[jonnyswamp]

:25: Awesome get home from a good day at work to find this I think my old Worcester needs changing and I now have a excuse that facebook does have a use I found out about this on the gas engineering,heating and plumbing group . Thanks Ray and Intergas for the chance , is there a android app for this forum I don't think the missus will like me sat in the office all evening. Also ive got it put it that the forum sponsor Williams is the best stockist around my way the Fareham and Gosport lads are top notch its worth a try if you haven't tried them yet.

Ditto with the Worcester needing replacing, mines dying as well
But not ditto with the facebook thing, too scared the past may be raked up

Gizmo you've been hiding here for 4 years too! And you're a local. Where about are you based.

 

[gizmolang]

And im Gassafe to Lang property services ltd 510073 just encase anyone was wondering if im a cowboy :62:

 

[gizmolang]

Im in Gosport where are you , Ive not been on here much because I cant get in the gas forum yet I should post more.

 

[Atouchofgas]

Just pm a mod with your details and he will give you a nice yellow badge

 

[Rickster123]

I'm in fareham. What's your name? Other than gizmo obviously!

 

[Ray Stafford]

Will I get a free pen?

Let me see...

Nope!

 

[rpm]

I'm in fareham. What's your name?

Don`t tell him Pike! lol

 

[Ray Stafford]

Seen as this for a gas appliance, how do we know that everyone is gas safe registered?

because Mr Ray didn't come up on the last banana boat. And because he has a fully paid up licensed service agreement with GasSafe Register. And because there is no way on earth that Intergas are going to hand over their valuable boiler to an unregistered cowboy.

 

[Ray Stafford]

Not its not go and check all the names and see if they all have yellow badges!

The definition of being registered is... errr.. being registered. Not having a yellow badge on here. Its not like its hard for me to check.

 

[Ray Stafford]

See what happens when you put AP in charge of something, Rays only been away for a short while and it`s kicking off! lol

You think you can rely on someone...

 

[Ray Stafford]

Maybe I've had some sort of subliminal premonition and I typed it correct :thinking2:
Oh well lads, que sera, sera good luck

Jonny. The bad news is...

 

[Ray Stafford]

Jonny. The bad news is...

With a name like yours, you are not going to get the girls.

The good news is - you are safe tonight. You are NOT eliminated today.

 

[Rickster123]

You think you can rely on someone...

In my defence I've been googling "pens with torches" for the last half hour.

 

[Ray Stafford]

Gizmolang, PadthePLumber - good to see you both taking a more active part in the forum.

Don't worry, the natives are more friendly when you get to know them. So hang around a while, because neither of you are eliminated tonight.

 

[rpm]

Drum roll ....................

 

[julesverne]

Well i would like to welcome Gizmo and paddington bear along to the forum. Good luck and lets see more of ya on here whether you win or not. Its not a bad place and ch4 doing seagull cocktails in the arms.

 

[jonnyswamp]

Nice one, I can go and have a shower now
The name is actually a very good friend of mines nickname, who passed away too young at 40 9 yrs ago this dec, we even have a "Johnny day" in his memory around the date he died, now that does get very messy

Edit
This isn't some sort of sob story, honest guvna

 

[padtheplumber]

Phew!!
That was tense
Same time tomorrow.....
🙂

 

[Ray Stafford]

Gassafe. You were first in. It would be ironic if you were also first out.

Wouldn't it?

 

[Ray Stafford]

CH4. You were a semi-finalist. It would be such a bummer to go out on the first round...

Wouldn't it?

 

[Ray Stafford]

Riley. Thanks for being a regular. Such a shame that it doesn't help you one jot here.

Shucks...

 

[Ray Stafford]

And Anz. Ahhh. Anz.

I like you because your name is easy to type.

So you can stay.

For tonight.

 

[rpm]

Phew!!
That was tense
Same time tomorrow.....
🙂

You think that was tense, the evil shopkeeper is just warming up mate! lol

 

[Ray Stafford]

You think that was tense, the evil shopkeeper is just warming up mate! lol

What are you, my agent?

 

[Ray Stafford]

CH4, I don't have the heart to kick you out now.

Your ok for another day. Just don't get too comfortable...

 

[Ray Stafford]

Right thats it.

Obviously, there is still the decision of whether to kick out Gassafe or Riley, but Mrs S and I are watching re-runs of the West Wing, so I'll catch you later dudes.

 

[Ch4 plumbing]

Happy days I'm off to bed now I'm sick and bad!!

Good night and blooming good luck.

 

[Riley]

ray Stafford master of suspense

 

[Unregistered]

Im rob might see you around Fareham sometime then.

 

[gizmolang]

Im off lads I thinks the misses is now well and truly peed at me sitting here.

 

[gassafe]

Just catching up with the action, looks like I'm hanging on by a thread 🙁

I vote Riley 😉

 

[Ray Stafford]

That Aaron Sorkin is great isn't he? What a brilliant series.

Its enough to take your mind off eliminating people...

 

[gassafe]

I feel like an apprentice sat in front of Lord Sugar...

 

[jonnyswamp]

Off to bed now, been awake since about 4 this morning, one of the swampettes fed the dog too much chicken and now shes farting like the co-op horse with a full cart, (the dog,not the daughter)
Good luck all

 

[anz]

That was tense, catching up, reading 50 posts at once.
Made it through the first night though, thanks Ray.

 

[rpm]

What are you, my agent?

What with your recent mega bank loan you couldn`t afford me mate.

 

[rpm]

I feel like an apprentice sat in front of Lord Sugar...

Think I`d take Sugar given the choice. lol

 

[gassafe]

Im hoping Ray has a heart... I'm the perfect finalist... Only ever fitted worcester Bosch, so would be good to see what the intergas fuss is all about 🙂

 

[gassafe]

We should make it into a britains got talent type final... We all gotta come up with a sob story 😛

 

[rpm]

Im hoping Ray has a heart.

No comment!

 

[Ray Stafford]

Obviously, there is still the decision of whether to kick out Gassafe or Riley,

Meh. I am feeling merciful.

Maybe it wasn't even one of these two for the drop?

Anyway - no eliminations tonight.

Although that just means twice the pain tomorrow!

Hasta la vista baby!

 

[solutions]

That Aaron Sorkin is great isn't he? What a brilliant series.

Have not watched the west wing. I just finished watching season 3 of the Newsroom. Some of the best tv I have watched in a while. Shame mr Sorkin is not making anymore, I could have happily watched for another 10 seasons. You should check it out if you have it seen it well written and well acted.

 

[Ray Stafford]

Which one Ray? I just Finnish Ed watching season 3 of the newsroom. Some of the best tv I have watched in a while. Shame mr Sirloin is not making anymore, I could have happily watched for another 10 seasons.

Just finished the "Two Cathedrals" West WIng - the one with the Dire Straights sound track. Powerful stuff.

I liked "The Newsroom" too, although it didn't have enough episodes for me.

 

[Ray Stafford]

What with your recent mega bank loan you couldn`t afford me mate.

I can't afford a packet of cheese and onion crisps, so don't give yourself airs!

🙂

 

[gassafe]

Maybe it wasn't even one of these two for the drop?

Riley & I won't argue with that 😉

 

[Ray Stafford]

I feel like an apprentice sat in front of Lord Sugar...

Or in my case, Viscount Nutrasweet...

 

[lame plumber]

Or in my case, Viscount Nutrasweet...

c'mon Ray, be honest it's Mr Numbnuts 🙂

 

[Riley]

Yessssssss

 

[IDCHAPPY]

Nerve wracking stuff 🙂

 

[rpm]

I can't afford a packet of cheese and onion crisps, so don't give yourself airs!

🙂

Oh how my heart bleeds for you my poor friend. Have noticed how the standard of your evening meals seem to have slipped of late, what was last night? Oh yeah piza. lol

 

[gizmolang]

Day two lads good luck i need to drag myself away from this and get to the gym

 

[Ray Stafford]

Obviously, there is still the decision of whether to kick out Gassafe or Riley, but Mrs S and I are watching re-runs of the West Wing, so I'll catch you later dudes.

Hmmm.

I think I was too soft last night.

Gassafe - your date with destiny has arrived. Unfortunately, instead of being a pair off blonde twin 19 yr olds, this date is with a balding, overweight plumbers merchant telling you that you have been eliminated from this round.

You are the weakest link. Goodbye.

 

[Ray Stafford]

Day two lads good luck i need to drag myself away from this and get to the gym

Huh! no attention span some people.

 

[padtheplumber]

Good luck gents....

 

[rpm]

Has gassafe killed Ray or is Ray having a comfort break?

 

[IDCHAPPY]

Look what i found in the van /crawl

 

[Ray Stafford]

Has gassafe killed Ray or is Ray having a comfort break?

Fish fingers. Mash. Beans. Yum

 

[Ch4 plumbing]

Fish fingers. Mash. Beans. Yum

[Ch4 plumbing]

Fish fingers. Mash. Beans. Yum[/QUOTE

Posted that twice, their must be a glitch in the Matrix!!

 

[IDCHAPPY]

So good he said it twice 😉

 

[gassafe]

ahh well, cheers anyway Ray...

Il stick to Worcester Bosch then 🙂

 

[anz]

Unlucky gassafe.

 

[Ray Stafford]

I'm afraid we are going to have to eliminate 2 people one night this week!

Thats the price of me being kind yesterday...

 

[hammers4spanner]

Where is pad

 

[anz]

Hmm, kind would be just letting us all have one. But I bet that isn't fun for you.

 

[Ray Stafford]

Hmm, kind would be just letting us all have one. But I bet that isn't fun for you.

If Intergas had given me unlimited stock, nothing would have given me greater pleasure.

But they remain wedded to this old fashioned idea of "return on investment". Funny huh?

 

[anz]

Just me then, [emoji12]

 

[jonnyswamp]

Ok, I'll be the first on tonight :biggrinjester:
Just got in from work, breakfast on the run, no dinner (no time) and spag bol without the spag with a bucket of chips for tea, with 3 of Braces finest smeared in anchor butter
Is everyone keeping out of Rays way, as in "out of sight, out of mind":behead:

I hope I haven't woken the giant from the top of the beanstalk!
Think I can hear Fe Fi Fo Fum in the distance, aargh

 

[rpm]

[jonnyswamp]

[jonnyswamp]

I`m off to feed my rumbling tum.[/QUOTE

Just fed mine, now I've got to take the dogs up on to the mountain for their daily "role in fox scat and eat some sheep poo" ritual
Really don't feel like trudging up hills with a full belly
Toodle pip

Edit
Just read Rays post after posting this and I've got a bit of a spring in my step now, nice one

 

[gizmolang]

Hello everyone how has your day gone ive been working out in the new forest wishing i could take a dip in there outside pool instead soldering in a nice hot loft space.

 

[jonnyswamp]

Ooh, sorry cropps, just googled infraction and it doesn't mean what I thought it did
Thought I was up for an award:angel_smile:

 

[Ray Stafford]

Gizmo, Pad, one of you is in.

One of you is out.

I wonder which is which?

 

[Ray Stafford]

Anz. You are still in. 🙂

 

[Ray Stafford]

CH4, you are still in. 🙂

 

[Ray Stafford]

Sorry Riley. Not your night. Time to put on the PJs, get out the icecream and put a good weepie video on the TV.

Or, if you are a bloke, shrug your shoulders, open another beer and say "never wanted the flippin' thing anyway."

 

[Ray Stafford]

Gizmo, Pad, one of you is in.

One of you is out.

I wonder which is which?

One of you went to the gym. The other fell asleep on the sofa.

Which is more worthy?

 

[padtheplumber]

I don't know about worthy - but I had been working hard
and my missus was watching all her soaps, which is enough to send any man to sleep!!!

:teeth_smile:

 

[rpm]

One of you went to the gym. The other fell asleep on the sofa.

Which is more worthy?

Probably find the gym is in the garage, he was there for 30 minutes then fell asleep on the sofa Ray.

 

[Riley]

Not my night I'll try again

 

[gizmolang]

It was the gym getting ready for 48 hour weight lift for help the heros its a while away if any of you guys near gosport are interested let me know its at don stylers gym also there looking for a sponser i dont know if Williams would be interested Ray ?

 

[hammers4spanner]

Not my night I'll try again

You out?

 

[Riley]

You out?

Seems so

 

[hammers4spanner]

You upset ray at some point lol

 

[Ch4 plumbing]

CH4, you are still in. 🙂

Sweet just got back in from the pub and a Ruby....great news thanks Ray.

 

[anz]

Long day today, boiler swap seemed to take forever, upstairs flat, worked flat out, couldn't move at the end.
Still in the draw though I'm glad to hear.

 

[Riley]

You upset ray at some point lol

Well yes there is that

 

[jonnyswamp]

I'll be first to stick my head above the parapet tonight, evening all:wink:
I have written my 100 lines of punishment that Croppie dished out
"I must not cuss, its just not clever
I wont do it again, but never say never"

I changed the last part of the second line, anyone care to guess what it should have read

 

[Ray Stafford]

It was the gym getting ready for 48 hour weight lift for help the heros

Thats such a good cause, I almost hate myself for eliminating you.

Almost - but not quite...

Sorry Gizmo, your out of this round.

 

[gizmolang]

Ahh will try next round or stick with getting a vogue , good luck to the remaining few i can stop looking at my phone every 5 minutes now 🙂

 

[Ch4 plumbing]

All a bit slow on here tonight :uhoh2:
