Seriously unfunny thread highjacking wankers! I'm sat here piΣΣing my self at your mirth..

This stuff has a fibreglass coating on it and it's as heavy as fcuk. Nasty stuff to use but you get great results with it.

Just wondered, I've never seen it there. exterior plasterboard.

I don't know Microciment, tell me what it is?

it said how much per week and is it perlite and 3rd hand? it'll be gash money no doubt, minimum wage in greece is €100 a week and the guys from the middle east will work for less than that.

quick acid test I use, I just say knock me a mix up and watch, you know if they have any experience within the 1st 2 mins.

ρε ποσα γαι εβδομαδα; περλιτες, τριτο χερι;

Cyprus. here is what we use, PELELITE FINISH PLASTER this is like Knauf Multi, it takes an age to go off, cool for ceilings though as all ceilings here tend to be really big.

I used knauf multi before I moved, it was gash! then I move here and no matter what you buy it's just like knauf multi. Luckily I scored a pallet of thistle multi last year it was like a dream to use. Run out now though so it's back to shite stuff.

I make my own here, it's called spritz here, it's just as crap. White cement and spritz mix (it's just like white grit crushed limestone I would imagine) at about 3-1, if you are doing a large area it's a good idea to make a note of the mix quantities then it's consistent over the whole area.

Nothing then eh! Fair play.

Well I've been out of the uk for 6 years and apart from reskimming a bungalow last summer in Liverpool I haven't touched a trowel in the uk at all. So what's new gear wise? I clocked this speedskim thing, dunno if it would be for me like. what's K rend, that sounds quite new. Rick!

I'll miss it anyway, the Wife is a teacher on the Army base here so she gets uk school holidays only.

Thanks it would be a cool enough gig, but would be impossible, the cost and loss of earnings for the band etc etc. Flights are €300 a pop at that time of year, so that's €1500 before you even start to think about somewhere to stay and all that..

Well mainly I just work for punters, 46 i'm to old for site work it's a young guys game, plus syrians and lebanese do that stuff for like 30 or 40 euros a day! Like I say it's a different world here, Render for example (everything is rendered here) you don't start with a scratch you use a...

It's scorching, 34 c every day, zero rain, just sunshine and beer. The drummer from my band his missus has a really successful wedding company here, Home | L'Amour Cyprus Weddings Check it out

January has been a write off, it's been one of the wettest on record, rained more last month than the whole of last year and feb hasn't been much better so far. Cold as well, frost in the mornings, the world is going mad! I'm a fair way from the north, like Burnley to say Birmingham, it's...

Nice, the wifes back on friday for a week, she'll be stocking up on greggs pasty's for me. sounds like it's pretty cold back there just now.

It's s**t! I managed to land a whole pallet of multi finish last year it was like heaven! tbh it's a different world to what I was used to back their.

I'm from Burnley! I make a once a year appearance in Colne for the Blues Festival, usually just go back for the whole of august, it's 40c + every day here so no chance of working.

Hi, I'm Rick I'm a plasterer from Lancashire, been doing it to long to remember. Then one day I woke up and found I had moved to Cyprus and 6 years later I'm still plastering here. Man was it a learning curve! but hey mostly the weather is great and i don't have to dash anymore! Anyway hello to...
