Had mine today, really nice chap came out, spent 90% of the time chatting and ended up doing Zs and RCD on 2 x Socket Outlets 8)

Hi Just wondered if anyone has had much experience with prefab concrete walls? Trying to work out if it's much cheaper to get a prefab wall or have one built with concrete blocks?

That time of year again, just wondered if anyone would mind sharing how much they pay for Public Liability, Employers Liability and Professional Indemnity Insurance and who they are with. Look forward to your response

oh ok, I could build a fairly large extension then budget permitting!

Hi Ive been reading a little into extensions and I would like if possible some clarification where it says extensions must not exceed 50% of the total area of land around the original house By that I assume it means the area inside the house and is this ground floor alone or ground and...

Just wondered if anyone could email me past papers, email address is in my profile. Cheers

Thanks very much, most helpful!

Have to agree with you there, Mr Ricicle would you be able to have a look for the data sheet please? RF sound advice as always

I phoned my local college earlier today and left a message for someone to call me back as I could see this being the route, I like to hope a number of candidates will jump at the chance! I refuse to take anyone on who 'grunts' lol

Would I be best off contacting the college and look to take a full time student and change them onto a day release program? Ive racked my brain (didnt take long) and cant think of anyone I know etc so will have to be an outsider

I used to get the hotel paid for, Monday dinner, tues 3 meals, wed 3 meals, thurs 3 meals and fri 2 meals - didnt have a choice I put it on company credit card, in my eyes I was not in a position to pack a lunch for the day or breakfast so it was fair, the wife still had to do a weekly shop etc...
