Well said Spongo, it seems like people like ban all sheds spend too long on these sites and think they know it all.

Bet he has'nt even got a job.

 

[Steve]

[sqongo]

Yeah,check out his posts,all through the day!!Sitting in front of a pc with Electrical regs in front of him!! How embarrassing,probably an unemployed binman

 

[Steve]

unemployed binman

how can someone be an unemployed binman? can you be a binman and unemployed at the same time?

 

[PompeySparks]

B-A-S was making the fair point that there is some theory concerned if this particular task is to be done correctly and safely!

 

[racket]

That wasn't a fair point, it was patronizing.
People come on these sites for advice, not to be spoken down to.
