To the young woman learning to drive with the ?Red? driving school. You stopped at the junction of Tyrell Rd. and Hindman Rd. tonight at about 8.15pm. I must have seemed to be suffering road rage as you sat blocking the junction on the instruction of your driving instructor. I had to get past and get home to the toilet otherwise I would have had a wee accident. I was not angry with you and your instructor was at fault for blocking the junction. I am sorry if you were upset or thought I was just being horrible, I had terrible gut pains and couldn?t wait for him to end his chat, he should have made you park across the road freeing up the junction, and I hope you aren?t fazed by my action, please try and understand why I had to get past.


Wee Dougal.

All new cars should be fitted with a flashing brown light and 'raspberry' siren to alert other roasd users when such a calamity is in the offing - it wouldn't be confused with an emergency vehicle and it would help prevent road rage and facilitate a more courteous and understanding relationship between the city's thousands of motorists:


"No, no, let him go. He's got his brown light on, he needs to pass more than I do the poor chap."

Many thanks for all your kind posts and PM?s. I made it with about three tenth?s of a second to go. I was doubled over with gut cramp but my old mothers Acorn stair chair saved the day. And always remember, never put off going to the toilet when you have a car journey ahead of you, especially during the Olympics. Cheers Wee Dougal.

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
