Hi
I am a first time poster here so I hope that I do not upset anyone by asking something stupid.
I paid an electrician £100 for some work he did at my second home. It seems that all he has done is change a couple of perfectly good working lightbulbs for low energy ones (25 in all).
Have I been ripped off by this working class oink and should I have asked for a dodgy receipt to make a bit of cash on the side for myself
Yours
David Willetts
What did you ask him to do?
How long did he spend doing it? Because £100 is only going to buy a couple of hours' time, if that. And changing 12 lightbulbs in an hour is pretty fast work, if they're inaccessible and he has to move a ladder around, move furniture to get access etc.

David Willletts coughed up some electrons that declared:
Yes - at that price he's obviously used dodgey Tesco Value 4 for a quid CFLs. They'll be dead inside 3 months.
Why not - might as well hang for a cow as a goat. Get him back after summer to replace them again!
Good one!
I think you've possibly missed something :-)

Big grin :-)

I'd never heard of the knob, politicians bore me rigid.
Mind you, if it was him, my reply would have been about right

No one had before you mentioned the name. I suspect you're thinking of La Cicciolina.

You and me both. I wonder how long it will be before they invent a replacement for their lost allowances? I think we need to make sure that= an independent body is also bought in to oversee/approve their expenses = as well. Yes the two are separate.
I gave up trying to understand the contradictory and abusive english of =
the OP but I agree =A3100 to supply and replace 25 lamps is about right.=
Wouldn't climb over her to get at you geoff ;-)

When we were doing the Part P consultative response, I recall thinking to myself "but surely MP's are going to end up paying extra to get Part P stuff done too?" Well, I was clearly wide of the mark -- _we_ pay to get MP's Part P stuff done, so they couldn't give a, um, stuff about that either!
Whoooosh
I believe three were over the moat and two under the tennis court and the majority were in a chandelier!!!

I like the comment one Italian made on the youtube reference I gave. In rough translation:
"No style, no rythm, can't sing, can't dance, can't even act a little."
Don't diss me Wotfud man, I aint no chav, I is part of the Rochester massive innit.
Oh dear. Its Tanner OP again, hiding behind a new name. Not very good at it are you?
I have listed all the sensible & valid points you have made below and have given them the response & respect they deserve.
How many light bulbs does it take to troll an MP? Or have I got that one wrong?
