[Silly Sausage]

I noticed a few geezers dragging their fit other halves along. That's just showing off.
They did have a glazed looked in their eyes though.

 

[onions1066]

I didn't really see any women there archy apart from the ones on the stalls. But the women on the wago stand were guarding them bowls like they contained the crown jewels!

I'll post them up tonight after work although Glenn will get banned again if he posts his up in the general forum :rofl: I almost got asked to leave from the front of house manager for getting them printed off! Did'nt think they were that bad?

That was a great day out, more like a day trip for the fun bus members lol. We had a laugh. I got some tools and books (fire alarms) and Tel introduced me to one of his friends that owns a company that had a stall there. Great contact to have, thanks Tel

Afterwards when we got home I introduced Glenn to one of my contacts and it looks like Glenn has a contract out of it! One step at a time atm but it is looking good for him Also meet up with Admin Phil that has just passed a major Uni exam, 4 years of hard work all for this one exam, well done Phil, happy days. What a great day out, Tel, IPF and Phil D are all top blokes but we need to sort out a meet up for all of us next year.


Phil left the bar first last night and has all my stuff in his car, including my house/van keys! I should be at a house (HMO) doing a fire alarm quote at 10am (now 10:20) and Phil is bombing his way to my house to drop them off! Landlord is ok with it thank god but I dont like being late.


PS Glenn, did you notice how none of us paid for any of our drinks last night?

[GMES]

[Plonker 3]

There's loads like it, I remember a while ago there was a mass opening of the gates and just about everyone got access to the arms.

 

[Paul.M]

just been through headingly in Leeds......

loads of skirt about.....

pert, fit, tite young lasses......:drool5:

 

[trev]

So when is the next Elex?
If anyone's going and would be prepared to pick me up a set of rods I'd happily pay a quid + postage (and maybe the price of a pint or 2 as a thank you)

 

[camerabloke]

Coventry is the next I think. In sept. I'm going so i will see if I can get you a set

You want to get yourself a mattress in the back of your van , oh and a big bag of sweeties as well...

 

[Paul.M]

yeah....what were that all about?

The bar/s owner owed me a favor, "Mark and I stayed for a while and took advantage of his generosity"! I also put my Glennsparks head on and told him (again) about all the f-ups he has done on this project! Trust me when I say, it was great feeling giving him it with both barrels in between the eyes!!! Everything that was said last night was told to him by Phil and me 4 weeks ago, we both walked away and now he is paying for it.

Lucky you, I'm jealous! Phi had my keys, turned up late to a quote by over an hour, fault find in Bingley sorted in 15 mins, 3 x smokes to install that took longer than expected then a small job to do in a barbers shop (not the one your thinking of Glenn btw) has now been knocked back to tomorrow after I finish playing golf as the shop opens on Monday....... Wish I could be in Headingly looking at skirt..... (Mrs. M has just seen me type this and gave me a slap pmsl).


Headingly when I was 20 years old.... Those where the days (just received another slap :rofl: )

1-Does Glenn know a barber
2 learn to type faster

 

[shanky887614]

does glenn own a shop in burton?

 

[Paul.M]

Barbers= Me and Glennsparks both quoted for the same shop refit (without knowing) for an absolute idiot of an owner and we both walked away.

Typing faster= Speed is not the issue mate, Mrs. M is my wife and full time career. Anything on the inter-web that I laugh at she must see what I'm looking at, its in her contract and wedding vows!



@ Glennsparks, e-mail me a pic of your badge..... Cant believe you wore it around the show lol :rofl: Cant wait for all the e-mails and post I'm going to get from the stall holders! The postman will have a bit of a giggle

Saddo :30:

 

[GLENNSPARK]

On the thursday yes he was

i was even asked if i wanted to sit through one of his `lectures`....by a very pert young lady near the entrance....with the offer of winning a prize if i gave her my name & address....

 

[tony mc]

Did that job which UKSPARKS came across the really bad rewire get mentioned at the Elecsa stand and did anyone find out what the Ginger method was?

I can't seem to find the post has it been taken off.

 

[telectrix]

it certainly did get mentioned. like talking to the moon. elecsa will only "investigate" if the end user complains directly.

yes i did mention it..at length to the emptyhead on the elecsa stand....he didn`t want to know......ipf and PhilD were both there as well......Phil and ipf were both asking him stuff as well......

he didn`t want to know...but i left him with copies of the `install`....and the associated crap that was passed off as a `cert`....

 

[MerlinGremlin]

There not interested because it's a cash cow, if they did anything they'd lose an income, who ever signs the cert is the one who gets prosecuted, plus they don't get come backs as they'll say no one made an official compliant to us so there was no need to investigate. It's a farce as long as there getting money they don't want to know anything else!!

 

[Knobhead]

i was even asked if i wanted to sit through one of his ^lectures^

What in the name of god does that moron lecture about?

 

[telectrix]

cockburn's books.

 

[Guest111]

What in the name of god does that moron lecture about?

the importance of correct identification,it was organised by Brother label printers.Funny thing was they weren't impressed when they tried to sell me a printer for 65 quid and I told them I got the same thing at cpc for 15 quid.lol
