Welcome to the forum. Although you can post in any forum, the USA forum is here in case of local regs or laws

I've had a number of parcels turn up over the last week. Some big, some small but don't think any are my secret Santa!
 
Hang in there mate...I've seen lots of adverts appearing in the local merchants lately....it's all about being in the right place at the right time! Good Luck.

Yeah I'm not for giving up easily. Got to take into account the time of year it is aswell. There is plenty companies looking for guys immediately but they are looking for experienced breakdown engineers hence the reason I went and got my fires cookers etc and plan to go on breakdown courses. I'll find a break eventually just got to keep at it.

I would have thought your best bet (not necessarily your best job) would be installing via one of the larger contractors doing council or grant stuff, but a wage is a wage
 
Had 6 or 7 parcels this past week but I paid for all of them. If I was taking part in this Secret Santa lark I'd probably get it done by Monday.
 
Dear Secret Santa

Thank you very much for the toilet paper which you sent me for Christmas. It is an unusual choice of Xmas gift, but I assume that Andrex had a special "elf" offer on?

Here is a picture of it. bogroll.jpg


However, one of your elves made a mistake when packing my gift, and accidentally included your operating manual for the cowboy plumbing business that you operate for the 364 days a year when you aren't chasing reindeer poo. Where would you like me to return it?

PS - thanks for the real pressie, which I haven't opened yet. 🙂

LOL
subtle hint to update pricebusters maybe?
 
Sent mine today!

Apologies to my recipient if it's late, but given recent events I think I can be excused! It was meant to go out last Friday but I was otherwise occupied!

Anyway, there's no excuse for mine not being here yet!! Apart from maybe I haven't seen my posty to collect it as I tell him to keep all parcels till I see him so the missus don't see what & when I'm ordering stuff! ;-)

Package sent this morning,

And I received 2 yesterday! Dunno what that's about! Mrs Croppie opened them both for me because I didn't remember ordering anything from Amazon. She said one was nicely evil. And the other one made her spit tea through her nose. She just keeps looking at me and laughing now.

ooooooh a porch on a flat......now thats exotic!

Moved out of that flat a few months ago, kind of moved 'down' in the world if you know what I mean. That block of flats did have double doors on every communal landing though. Always been posh what what what. 😉



i tell people I have double doors to look posh but I'm including the front door and back door....nobody says they have to be together! That's ok isn't it???

Seeing as it's Christmas then no, jefaz, they don't have to be together. 🙂
 
Isn't it in the NI NBS that all plant rooms should be fitted with either double stable doors or a standard door installed sideways?
