ol.. bet you was bullied at school hey..lol.. you are such a nob matey....
Do you mean.. bet you WERE bullied at school? I'm sure you know more about nobs than me! The word is KNOB, by the way.
Who the hell do YOU think YOU are. If I'm being paid to do a job for someone with their hard earned cash, I will go out of my way to do the best job I possibly can and that job will be done in a professional manner using professional techniques and materials. And yes, I will know MY place...
