Alan of D & B Carpentry

Recommended Posts

Alan is building up his own company. He specialises in windows, doors, wardrobes and floors. We got him in to fix our horribly noisy/creaking stairs. We are very pleased with his work...which was efficient, done cleanly and at a fair price. We are going to use him again for another creaking area. Give him a try. He's a nice guy and easy to deal with.


Note: he likes his coffee strong!


If I have one teeny little niggle, it's that he's an Arsenal supporter - but I guess we can't have everything, and besides, I dealt with that by serving his coffee in a Manchester United mug... >:D<

And you would have died of thirst! ;-) :))


Whilst here, I've just realised that I omitted to post Alan's phone no: 07731 433805.

    • You are most likely correct in thinking that  Kinnock, Blair, Brown, Starmer et all knew it.  But they obviously thought that his skills, abilities and usefulness far outweighed the negatives. Here is a summary of the positives lifted from elsewhere:-   1. Strategic Architect: He was a primary architect of "New Labour," rebranding the party and shifting its core ideology to win the 1997 general election. 2 Master of Communication: Often called the original "spin doctor," he revolutionised how political parties manage the media. He famously created the "grid" system to coordinate government messaging. 3 Networking and Charm: Known as "Silvertongue," he possesses a peerless ability to charm and network with high-level global figures, including business leaders and heads of state. 4. Governance and Trade Expertise: Beyond strategy, he was considered a highly efficient minister, serving as European Commissioner for Trade and Secretary of State across multiple departments, including Business and Northern Ireland.  With his skill and abilities, he delivered results for all his bosses. In the short time in Washington, he found a way to get on the right side of Trump - despite him  being critical of Trump in previous years. That said he is complex personality.  He can be simultaneously brilliant and arrogant, thick-skinned yet sensitive, and selfless for his party while appearing narcissistic in his personal dealings.  My OP asked if he would be accepted over the pond. It turned out he was because he got on famously with trump. He worked out the correct strategy to get on the good side of Trump and secured a better trade deal than the EU and other nations.    
    • Malumbu, do you happen to know what the current figure is for "trips into town made by walking, cycling and public transport"? 
    • Before voting, do you not think it's logical to evaluate each party on its policies and make a tally of the reasons "For" and "Against" voting for each party.
    • Thanks, hopefully someone will know something!
