Loiusa recently started getting tanked up early afternoon and foreseeing early evening munchies sought chinese takeaway recommendations.

Then started taking the recommenders to task.

I think of her as the EDF Julie Burchill justwithout the Tony Parsons interlude.

I think Louisa makes threads more interesting...the Christmas parade thread is a perfect example of this as, prior to her comments, the thread was just...well, just a nice, pleasant thread about a nice, pleasant event which is going to take place in nice, pleasant ED. Her comments spiced up the thread, compelled the likes of me to jump in and give our two-pennies' worth (e.g. by showing our support for all of Monica's hard work etc.). This in turn got the thread moving at a faster pace than it would otherwise have done and, ultimately, it kept Monica's thread close to the top of the page. Some of us may not have agreed with Louisa's sentiments (myself included), but, I believe that to have disallowed her the opportunity of voicing them would have been manifestly unfair. The flip side is that we are now being permitted to discuss her at length here.


So, is Louisa for real? I think that, for the purposes of a dynamic, fun and vibrant forum, this is irrelevant...i.e. I couldn't give a toss! As with Dulwichmum (who is in all probability not "for real"), the forum is a more interesting place with her contributions.

    • 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!
