    Scottish Independance

    Back on topic, I will vote yes for independence. The original wording of the acts of settlement basically suggest that Scotland and England are equal partners in the union. This is not and never has been the case, due to the fact that England is so much larger both in terms of resources and...

    Should the UK devolve?

    Another wee 'mistake' propagated by the media. In terms of GVA (gross value added) in other words how much,on average, every person puts into the country, England contributes £20442 per head of population and Scotland £19744 without taking into account oil and gas revenues. When this is factored...

    Are Scottish plumbers smarter than English plumbers?

    Delta, you make some decent points but you lost me when you referred to us as northern british. Yes, I have a british passport, but thats only until the new independent Scottish one is available :wink: And the jelly beans maw was about as scottish as Rolf Harris! Alba gu Brath!

    Are Scottish plumbers smarter than English plumbers?

    Mostly accurate apart from the English speaking lowlanders. They speak Scots. You may now " Awa an bile yer heid!". And for the record, the pink mini skirt, whilst rather fetching, is impractical for use by Scots plumbers (This one anyway) I would hang too low and frighten the clients! Ahem.

    Gas Safe training centres

    Bc - AD

    baxi bermuda 57/3 fire and front needed

    You could do worse than popping intae Bellyeoman council yard. Find the gas tecs' office and speak to the foreman. He might have one buck shee. Fife council are doing an upgrades programme just now, but I thought the work was all in house ( the heating work that is). How is Abbeyview these days...

    Ideas for hot air heating replacement

    As someone who grew up in a house with an ancient J&S warm air unit, I can say that warm air is a great option for heating, so long as it is balanced properly and ,of course, maintained properly. Is there any particular reason you want to replace the unit?
