Back to Nette's desire to be a curmudgeonly-ex-ageing-neo-punk, I think this is an affliction (or a perverse hobby) rather than a job.


Today's fantasy job for me (thanks to KT's inspiration) is to sell stone cladding door-to-door in SE22.


ALL of ED could look this way...

Kudos on the fabulous door/window combo too.

maxxi, you're a genius!...I'm thinking green bins, I'm thinking brown bins, but more importantly I'm thinking blue bins...for the promos you might have to up the blue on the Welsh Slate Grey, but that's nothing that a bit of Photoshop can't sort out...just needs a catchy range name, how about streetscape, with the hook line a bin is for life, just ask *Bob*...the good burghers of Southwark will forever be in our debt.

I'd buy that !


Loving the lattice leaded ( fake of course ) windows too.


Hey I know, I want to be that Woman at Homebase who as you're about to leave says...


"Any Windows or doors " and tries to hand you a double-glazing leaflet.


( she always looks freezing cold too )


Now that looks like a great job



NETTS:-S

No that's not a fantasy job, that's an earnest/worthy job


Come now Thomas, you can work in a Pickled Gerkin factory.

As the weather is on the turn today's fantasy job would be selling these door-to-door...


http://www.midlandcarports.co.uk/images/car-port-4.jpg no, not cars, Car Ports! A lost art and yet the area is crying out for them.


Two-car family? No problem.... http://www.aholdens.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/carport2.jpg elegance and simplicity.

    • Call National Grid and say you have a problem with a gas pipe  0800 111 999  and with luck they will fix it for free.  Most likely my diagnosis.   Some nutter had done their own gas plumbing in my house and National Grid blanked off both a supply to an old gas fire and a wrought iron pipe in the bathroom that supplied to the old bathroom water heater originally in the house. Extremely unlikely to be connected, may be from the days of gas lighting (mainly over by the 1920s) .  Gas connection will have long since been modernised.  If it hasn't been blanked off then just turn it on and sniff, or if you are like me light it.  This is how gas fitters did it in the past,  Although at your own risk (you are more likely to asphyxiate from natural gas, it is not poisonous, and the smell is an additive, so you can smell leaks. Chances are you are old enough to have used Bunsen burners at school. The end of the video is great, the biggest source of gas is your boiler, and if you house hasn't blown up already......  
    • Thanks, that's very helpful to have that confirmed! Really wasn't sure what we were dealing with. Will look into a gas engineer...
    • Ah, dozy me.  Thanks for pointing that out.   I was so impressed by the MOT details being there I  didn't  expect anything else could be so didn't check any further.  I've not owned anything with an internal combustion engine for decades.  Recently found a light tool that I've a dim memory of using for (??) timing checks.
