I love it out there. Whereabouts are you?

I think I know the guy you're talking about

Thanks. If folk had just said a lot of auld wank then I'd have known. Some people!

Dished? I haven't heard that before, can someone please explain?

@John j

Nice work

Definitely need battery tools. Wires are just nasty

What the f**k are you two bickering about? I am @Pam H

Well I never won it. Didn't want to anyway.

I went to Mumbai for a month and caught the virus didn't I? That laid me up for a bit and made it hard to get home

Just do what I do and only accept jobs in houses with laminate flooring. Problem solved!

I'm looking in. @JessThePlasterer won't be doing me in in a hurry

You can't beat a bit of internet rage. I once took the pish oot a stupid post off someone I didn't know on Facebook and she replied. I'm going to bed now but just you wait til tomorrow. you'll be sorry.. I'M GOING TO SEND YOU A PM! So I blocked her before I went to bed.

Oh oh..I know. Just get on a bus with Bury written on it and sure is eggs, you'll get to Bury. My grandad told me that.

I'll have him for my corner because he looks Scottish. Is that you?

Uig Pier a week Sunday at dawn.

Oi. I saw that. Obviously I'm hard because I'm from Scotland. I can't say I'd go out of my way to come down and prove it though. That'd be a bit mad.

Do your course and see if anyone will take you on as an improver

I'm con I'm considered posh in central Scotland

Don't you fill between the boards solid?

I was taught to knock the 2nd coat up through the 1st but I prefer to do a bigger set and knock up fresh.

Pva and start over. The second coat isn't applied to add thickness to the job, its applied so that you are applying a wet coat to a firmer one. It helps you smooth things out.

Not many of those types in Scotland. We have enough of our own inbreds.

Should use one with a little bit of dust in the bottom of it. Just make sure it goes straight in the skip and not in the mixer.

Why not?

I'll keep an eye on how you get on. I wouldn't mind getting into that.

But you have to put it down. I've got a charge port in my radio. Radio is Bluetooth so it's all good.

UK TV isn't much better.

Where are you buying charging wires? They're only about a fiver.

I've just been on the phone. 1975 called they wanted me to ask if @stuart23 would let them have their jokes back

Are you a crusty old man who lived in a Motherwell flat?

And that's slang for catholic...and that's a thing in Scotland as you know. So no, I'm not a Tim. Can we please move on?

Because those teams have sectarian leanings and we're moving on. It's just not funny any more.

What do you think a Tim is? It's really offensive stuff that crusty old men go on about in Glasgow. It's old, it's tired and it's massively out of date It's not in the least bit funny so people should give it a rest.

Accrington Stanley

Must you make me be serious? The answer is that I'd need a god to be a catholic or a Protestant. My parents don't get to decide my religion, I do. Grow up. It's not 1975 any more, you know.

Don't take the pish - I got a right load of stick for this. https://www.thesun.co.uk/archives/news/441828/miss-scotland-hopeful-i-strip-and-get-plastered/

No. Pam's got a sense of humour and works on a building site. I'm definitely not a he ;)

Keep telling her that.

Why's popped paper bad? If I go a bit too deep so I feel the strength of the board is compromised, I'll just screw in next to it. Am I doing something wrong?

Just open everything you can up and use a fan if you can. There's really not much else you can do is there? Unless you want to pay out a load of hard earned money on a dehumidifier. I've honestly never found it a problem though.

Kind of. I mostly work for one guy on a self employed basis. He makes a bit of a profit and in turn supplies me with work and any support that I might need - which isn't very much. I'm always free to do my own work or even employ him if circumstances dictate. What's that got to do with...

So long as you don't have to stop drinking, that's the main thing.

Impressive bit of technical drawing there. What is it?

It's more than you'll get round my way

@Danny I thought you said five messages?

I haven't got ten years under my belt yet but the boss used to like sending me to the people who would be the most shocked by having a wee lassie at the job.

I can see that. I've also had a lot of skepicism. People being surprised that I can actually do it. I think from what I've seen just being around is going to help me soak up a lot.

I have a 6 inch brush that looks like it belongs to a tramp and a nice one inch.

Central Scotland. A bit nearer to Glasgow than Edinburgh. How long do my replies need to be approved? I guess anti spam?
