On a serious note. The fox has been misunderstood again and has now walked away from the party. I think a few apologies may be in order for 'over stepping' the mark here. Foxy is on holiday and entitled to do whatever he likes. If he wants to post on the forum who are we to judge? Or is there a hint of jealousy that he is in the baking Turkish sun having fun whilst the rest of us are in the rainy UK breathing in car fumes and eating organic ostrich burgers. Yeah, thought so. Give him a break.

Might be the CloudFlare interception.

Just a reminder of what I posted on the first page of this thread. Did anyone even read it?


People that have active, socially hectic holidays surrounded by friends/family/kids, loads of things to see and do, probably wouldn't even think of or have time to post on here.

These are the ones that more likely use the forum to ease boredom when they have nothing better to do.


Others that have quiet, relaxing, 'me' time holidays surrounded by nothing but solitude and a mobile, have the time and need to communicate.

These are the ones that more likely use the forum because they rarely have anything better to do and want to keep in touch.


If, in the unlikely event that I ever go on holiday, I can assure you that I'd still post on here. And read it every day.


Louisa, I agree with you about the apologies, but please don't mention ostrich burgers.

    • 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!
