    B&Q decking

    At full price I wouldn't bother with B&Q's decking boards, I think I got mine for about 90p each last year when they were offering a massive discount. The quality is fairly good, however I did pick the best ones on the pallet, 25% of them were junk.

    Kitchen Isolators

    I suspect the spark quoting will be fitting a new radial/ring for the kitchen, surely flicking the circuit breaker in a fusebox would satisfy the regs by being "easily accesible" I would take Ban-all-sheds unprofessional advice with a pinch of salt, you can imagine what his kitchen is like...

    Aye, last time I checked the Queen was still Commander-in-chief of the armed forces! I dont see where the whole tories are toffs argument comes from, pretty much EVERY MP will have been educated at a university of good standing, quite honestly I couldn't give a f*** who runs the country so...

    Brown Stands Down

    Only two kinds of people vote labour 1. The workshy and people claiming "asylum" 2. Ex miners and all families associated with, because it was perfectly viable to hold the country to ransom over pay when the product could be extracted cheaper elsewhere :roll:

    Court fees - why?

    I once went down the empty lane hoping to push in towards the front of the queue, imagine my delight when I got to the front only to find there wasn't actually any traffic merging taking place, just a massive tailback because someone hadn't bothered to change the signs, lol. :lol:

    Floor socket

    To be fair, you would be mopping the floor down not blasting it out like the floor of an abattoir. I guess forgetting to unplug the really obvious cable in the floor and closing the lid would be an easy mistake to make :lol: :roll:
