Come to Scarborough for a week, carry my tools, keep your bloody trap shut, say nothing to customers, look and learn. Doin't ask dumb fool questions like where are we going now? Don't stop for a fag every 1/2 hour. I don't mind if you smoke aslong as you don't stop work.

bring boilers back to your house and take them apart bit by bit, each bit you take off go and find out how it works, once you know put it aside and the take another part off.

in time you will be as sad as me and have enough boiler parts to make your own multi manufacturer super duper condensing time machine.

good luck Doc.


..and if your not getting people telling you to 'SHUT UP'.... Then your not asking enough questions! (i get this every day ).

Or I'll cut off your thumb!

My m8 was up a roof, had sent his lad down to the van for a widget. Ages later, 'cause he couldn't get on he had to go down himself, caught the little snot texting away. Snot is now jobless.

OP if you have a big enough space at home, ask your local guys if you can take away their removed boilers for them, actually you'll help them get them off the wall, no strings attached.

Then you get an in. Keep your gob shut, ask no questions 'cause they'll all be stupid at first and the guy is too busy for that. Get stuck in, remove all his rubbish aswwell as his boilers.

Take them home strip them and learn all about them, study MI's for the ones you have (off the net).

Eventually these guys will ask what you do with the boilers, show them how keen you are to learn, you've already demonstarted willingness, ability, keenness, at the very least they will discuss with you what you have learned, ranging through come along when I go to a repair, to are you looking for a JOB?

Wo, we weant way over your head.

Good for a laugh though, and lots of cynicism.

Shucks my humour on the electrics UK was well misunderstood. Nice to be amongst folk with a sense of humour. Spose sparkies are like Germans.

I remember fondly how my dad and I would roll about on the floor when Yes Minister or Faulty Towers were on, my German step mother used to sit there looking pussled saying "I don't know vot you find so funny". When she would crack a joak she expressed a loud domineering forced laugh. I vill tell you ven to laugh.

How can my mobile number be any alternative to doing the usual?
