For god's sake don't use 'Clever Trevor', and yes, I do remember it, but I can't remember where the **** from.
Well I never, Knock me down wiv a fever. Just remembered. Have a look an U tube, Ian Dury (Clever Trev)
 
Yes ipf, I was in 4th or 5th year at school when Ian Dury released that.
Oh how I laughed
Round about the same time Jilted John released his one and only hit single, my mate Gordon wasn't best pleased either

Wasn't a Julie involved too, by any chance ?
 
Yes, her name was Julie. My wife is Julia though and I'm not Gordon so there's no connection there mate:)

Must have been a real scream.lol! Tell you what though, plenty of Dury's blockheads still around, judging off some of these posts, eh.

Sedgy I agree however, I want to make my ad different. Yes I'm time served, yes I have almost 30 years experience, yes I give a professional service but putting all that in will just make mine the same as everybody else's. So if I can sum all that up in one line don't you think that would be better?

How about: "Gis a job!!" ?????

What about a mug shot?
Some people like to know who they are potentially dealing with.

Or some sort of 10 % discount voucher.
Then you could alaways add it on when pricing up and take it off again at the end.
Good old Irish discount lol
People are always looking for a bargin!
 
Trev how about: CARLSBERG ELECTRICAL. "probably the best sparky in the world!" Ok, so it's a bit understated! Lol A free slab of cans with every rewire. 4 pack for the smaller jobs.When things are quiet, a bit moonlighting as dial-a-drink maybe?! For a call-out fee like!!

You need a company name with the first word beginning with A, B or C so you are near the top of listings (if they are strictly aphabetical)!
