    Occupational Hazards

    Been in the game 30+ years. Back plays up now and then - Had trapped sciatic nerve which rendered me unable to walk for a week, literally crying in pain. Doc gave me strong pain killers which left me zonked out so I went to a chiropractor who straightened my back out with some very quick pulls...

    Turn up on time. Do what your told - If you don't understand ask DO NOT pretend to know. Listen when an explanation comes along don't play angry birds on mobile during down time....down time equals an opportunity to either clean up or assist someone else or finally just to watch what is going...

    EU Brexit - How will you vote given the latest "news"

    Re: EU - How will you vote given the latest "news" So the EU "cost's" us £25m per day.....Oh and they tell us how to spend the rebated £25m ? Apparently the 25 million difference is made up of our rebate AND the return grants and subsidies. The actual rebate part is just that...a rebate it...

    EU Brexit - How will you vote given the latest "news"

    Re: EU - How will you vote given the latest "news" Yes we agree it is a problem but there are different ways to address the problem. One of them is to use the extra estimated 3% onto our GDP to build the bloody infrastructure required...That is jobs and cash for us all right there. And if we...

    Has Electrician made a mistake with height?

    Which is why I posted in quiet a harsh manner. I have been messed around by designers with terrible drawings and often unworkable "clever idea's" since I was 16 years old as a fresh face apprentice....The old saying we can send a rocket into space but you can't ever get a drawing correct...lol -...

    Has Electrician made a mistake with height?

    Lol well I blame the op 95%. There is NO WAY I would move for free and to be even considering "See who pays for the redecorating".....Im glad it was not me as I would get the feeling that my customer was trying to blame me for his shortcomings AND worse than that getting ME to pay for them...

    An appropriate use of the Human Rights Act???????

    No vote...It was "talked out" so never made it that far....A shameful system we have that allows such tactics....Used at various stages by all parties. Here is a piece on the bill and what happened. Opinion: Why the 'Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Bill' shouldn't have been talked out »...

    An appropriate use of the Human Rights Act???????

    I know that ll's need to pay for upkeep, insurances, endowments, complying with legislation.....but with my Canterbury example the ll is still many £££ ahead...if we are seeing housing as solely an investment vehicle then the Canterbury situation is great. But on a personal level I think...

    An appropriate use of the Human Rights Act???????

    Any that come on the canterbury local estate agents usually get "offered" to a certain few before being offered to the public. Another thing happening in Canterbury is that the council, due to huge local uprisings have now decided to enact some legislation that means any property that someone...

    An appropriate use of the Human Rights Act???????

    Im torn on this. I have family in Canterbury, It is now more a university city than a tourism hotspot (although they still are a major tourism hotspot). anyway in Canterbury during term time there are 40,000 students in the city. A huge percentage of ex council housing is now owned by BTL...

    Fairly making money by sub-contracting - New Business Startup

    As mad a thread as this is I like the idea of a Bad client Blacklist. I wonder if legally such a site could operate. Technically a site and even phone app would be super easy. I wonder if you could create wording that would make such a site fall within our laws. Hmmm Shall I start a new thread ...

    Break even analysis

    Too funny lol. OP comes to thread asking for help but not wanting to go into details. Then even when he get's upset and ask's for thread to be closed members STILL go out their way to assist him or at least point him in the right direction...THEN the person asking for help tries to challenge one...

    It's getting worse

    Thoughts on is it time to arm most/all of the police ? No. If you want reasons just quote some of the many legitimate reasons which have been deemed to be nothing to do with the thread. Does it work in other countries who isis or whoever have a gripe with ? Nope - plenty of evidence that armed...

    Labour Leadership

    As far as im concerned what we now do in Iraq is an obligation rather than us just lending a helping hand. Why is being a peace loving man such a bad thing ? You also state "it could be us next"......Would you say that if it were say a splinter Russian group or a splinter Chinese group ? It...
