I can talk about football and if necessary wear the loose jeans to give the full building site effect if I have to squat down.

Conan -

Sanity is in short supply anyway or I wouldn't have started this project in the first place.

Pipes and dhrains are the sleeping giants of the diy universe. In comes the kango and out goes sanity.

Practice breathing through your teeth…

Bollix: Thanks but I couldn't afford the drinks bill.

Maz: you're too kind.

Andrew: the wee woman from the village is gone to Poland working on a roofing contract.

Dan: That would be a great help, especially if you can also talk about football.

Savannah: It's no big deal. Just a fucking nuisance.

Bock, my aul fella was a site foreman over the water for a good number of years. I could come around and assist in the supervising and firing of people.

Whatever happened to asking the wee woman from the village to do these tasks?

This sounds like something my Dad would do…..quote "i'll just lay a few tiles, it'll only take an hour". Cut to 5 weeks later and the house is in bits. Best of luck with that!!

Will I send across the boys to complete the job in under a day? The standard rate is a dozen bottles of Pear Cider per man, per hour, but if they go past 3pm then we're talking Laphroaig at least.

Please ensure your pets are locked away, one of the lads is from Blantyre, East Kilbride, enough said.
