'Also, on the point of mince pies, you can usually tell how middle class a shop is by the positioning of the mince pies in store. You'll notice Sainsbury's don't use the tactics of morrisons and ASDA by placing them in an eye grabbing location. They usually just casually plant them in the bakery area and rarely on offer, it makes them more desirable to the bourgeoise.'


So the working classes are basically lazy morons who don't know that they want something unless its piled up high and cheap in front of them???

I am borderline middle class in my wine tastes, but I tend to look for bargains, a much more working class trait. My mince pie theory goes a long way in classifying whole social class groups. Anyway, I'd like to wish a very middleclassmas to all my fellow EDers of the puff pastry mince pie loving variety, as well as the rest of us who are stuck eating totally unpretentious short crust pies and enjoying them just as much minus the shenanigans associated with pompousness. Cheers everyone!


Louisa.

    • 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!
