I remember reading a book by David Niven some years back, recounting his days in Hollywod during it's heyday. He recounted a powerful movie mogul who came from eastern europe ( I think) and had a particularly heavy accent. He was often ridiculed by the stars of the day because of this and had a particularly short fuse. One one accasion, Niven recounts, the guy in question rounded on those mocking him and said " You think I know f**k nothing!!! Let me tell you I know f**k all!!!!!!!!!!!"
jacks09 - the US band Devil Driver had 'I could (f-ing) care less' as a slogan on a T shirt. It means that one actually cares to the max as there is scope for one to care less- and I couldn't care less means you do not care at all......Someone I know who really does give a damn wears the T shirt frequently

Surprising how often you hear that one. I confess I sometimes say brightly, 'So they were talking slowly then?'

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
