Our forum.
It`s free to join and the wealth of knowledge here is immense
Questions vary from the very expensive to those of a few pence
It doesn`t matter if your young or old
Just post your question jump in and be bold
It helps if you register and say a few words
Don`t worry it doesn`t have to be much
DIY or professional it doesn`t matter to us
We are all commoners here with a common touch
We don`t just talk plumbing it is one of a few
Dogs, Cats, Sport and her indoors will do
Tales of family woe and tales of pride
It`s all here to be shared and not always with the bride
You will find we talk of the good and the bad
Mostly we are happy but some seem to be sad
You can post pictures asking what is this and what does it do
Our answers will always be honest and true
Before talking gas there is a test you must take
Please understand it really is for your own sake
On this subject the mods here will take a firm stand
And anyone that breaks the rule will be banned

The forum is made up of a pleasant crowd
There will be banter keep it clean we all ask
Or the mods will come knocking and take you to task
Talking of mods there is one best not to cross
He wields strong words and is known to have strops
He lives far away but his reach it is long
One click of a button and that`s it you will be gone

There are other mods who do sterling work
I also hear they wear a tie and a shirt
But it takes all sorts to make this forum so great
That many drop in during their tea break
There is a man the shopkeeper is how he is known
There is story about bulbs and squirrels for which he is renowned
Now and then he has freebies to give but how he likes to mess with our heads
He teases us and strings it out when really we should be tucked up in our beds
Me I`m not a plumber I made that clear when I signed on the dot
I`ve enjoyed the jokes and the banter plus I`ve learnt an awful lot
I`ve met and shared a drink with a member or two
Which reminds me you never paid and yes I`m talking to you
Mystery prize entry

So here we go for one more week, the regulars, newbies and the ones who never speak
All trying their luck for a freebie to bag, the only exception's you intergas slags
The rules are clear, the games begun
It's got nothing to do with being well hung
You need to be an inter Virgin, and do the training course
And if you keep on fitting Worcester, you're backing the wrong horse
So who will find themselves a winner and who will go without?
Some of you will move on quietly, but others might scream and shout
And was week one and two pot luck?
Or was Raymondo looking for the biggest buck?
I guess we'll never know the truth, it's all a mystery
And in 6 months time and the games restart, it all becomes history
But just remember who's in charge and why this challenge starts
It's all about those crazy Dutch, and a boiler with only 4 moving parts.

Morning all, it's eerily quiet on this thread, what's happening? it's making me nervous
Thought this would be one of the most popular threads on the internet at the moment

A plumber`s life is not always a happy one
We leave home early and get back when the work is done
We can go home feeling tired, dirty and smelly
Often to find the wife curled up snug watching the telly
People think plumber`s earn 50K
If only, if only I hear you say
The vans cost a fortune but don`t really last
They are made from tin foil and rust really fast
I know what`s wrong can you do it customers ask
This sort are generally a pain in the arse
Often we hear can you come and see what you can do
Yet when we get there we are number 8 in the queue
Customers will lie and yell you broke my TV
We weren`t in the room so how can that be
Often we ask where is the stopcock
And the customer stares back in a state of shock
Trainees can be good and some are real bad
Just try and remember they are only wee lads
Our job is to train them, take them there and here
If only the mobile wasn`t glued to their ear
We spend our money on stock for the van
Yet thieving swine help themselves when they can
Customers agree the price at the start
Yet when you give them the bill they look like you`ve just dropped a fart
(See below)

Gas safe is a total joke
Yet the money they want can make you choke
Cowboys can do the job supper fast
Customer pays peanuts yet expects it to last
Customers see adverts this one they say
But don`t understand and will not be swayed
Boilers oh they come and they go
Some are good whilst others are poo
Plumber`s, Brickys and Sparks on site don`t mix
Sometimes you have to give them a kick
We can leave a job all sweet n sound
Yet 2 weeks later the call is can come you pop round
Oh a plumber`s life is not always a happy one.

Thats a very heavy piece of post-modern blank verse. Probably good for critical aclaim, but not sure its going to go down well with the masses.
