The Frances Appreciation Board FAB have had a whip round and put a bounty on your head JL.

Unless you withdraw the above assertion we will be considering even crapper chocolate bars.

We give fair warning that we have access to both Fry's Turkish Delight and Hershey bars.


Edited because instead of the final parenthesis around FAB it came out as a b@stard emoticon.


Edited again because the same b@stard emoticon came up once more so left the the parentheses out altogether.

That's Friday the 13th for you.

I'm sure Jah knows when he's onto a good thing, and I fancy him myself, but isn't it the job of a certain type of landlady to make all the regulars think she'd kindly take them down the cellar and leave them gasping over a casket, if it wasn't for his nibs with his name above the door?

Nothing of the sort JL. I caught those side long glances she used to give me.

Glances that said 'if only I wasn't welded to this place by a sense of duty and for better or worse I married the big lug and I have had two children with him, I'd give up the second home, the boat and all the holidays and come and live in your council flat, that'll be ?3.20, yes it's gone up'.

Pregnant with meaning those glances were.

    • 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!
