We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember Bruce saying something like:

I dunno about that - have you _seen_ his picture?

[Bruce]

No, but I'm no oil painting, so I would not be one to criticise how other people on uk.d-i-y might look. ;-)

It wouldn't be difficult to be better looking than Tommy Walsh or, for that matter, faster. TW has two speeds - dead slow and stop. The only thing he's quick to do is moan. :-(

I have a great face for radio :-)

Halfway through the conversation with the researcher on Tuesday, he asked if I listened to Radio Kent. I evaded the question somewhat :-) I never listen to it!

[The Medway Handyman]

just a few odd job men. Kent Handyman's original website was a direct cut & paste job from mine. He still uses exactly the same pricing policy. Never come across him.

Medway Handyman Service is a more recent start up and is making the classic small business mistake of not charging enough. At his rates he won't make anything like a decent living.

[The Medway Handyman]

I do have a cunning plan :-)

And Tommy went up several notches in my estimation when I caught him on TV a few weeks back building a really nice set of kitchen cupboards and worktop out of actual wood. No MDF in sight. And they even showed a bit of technical stuff for a change.

My thoughts too. Why do presenters (it's just the same on the Today Show) like the sound of their own voices so much ??

[John Rumm]

He has got the face for radio ;-)

[PJ]

Stereo radio requires .......

Apologies Dave.

[Lobster]

And me. On a bank holiday, too :-(

It was just at the time when British Gas had started to

Same here. Very nice guy came out and sorted it, then when it came to signing the paperwork said; "so, you just noticed this gas smell out of the blue this afternoon, right?"

"Er, well, yes just after I put the nail through the pipe"

"No, you JUST NOTICED THE GAS SMELL OUT OF THE BLUE THIS AFTERNOON, RIGHT?"

"Oh... yes... that's right"

Thank you Mr Rumm :-)

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember "The Medway Handyman" saying something like:

He's damn close to 'passing off' his service as yours, iyswim.

[ARWadsworth]

I like the words "lowest handman rate in Medway (*)"

(*)according to our research etc.

And if they take twice as long as Dave who is the cheapest?

^^^^^^^

Does he advertise in phone boxes?

I suppose it depends whether the client's in a hurry or not.

Possibly because he lives in a place named "Rochestrer"
