Lol, "Charter" even ;-)

I look forward to the k*****ad spamming the thread about electrical spurs.

Oh dear, you've gone and upset me now ! How will I ever survive such biting sarcasm from the master himself ?

Given that you can actually read, and acknowledge the fact that, rightly or wrongly I consider you to be a parasitic nonentity at best, what possible reason can you have for believing that I care in the slightest about what you may think, or post ?

Ever.

I was around when the local B&Q were located in a former cinema, complete with grand entrance doors with a big orange B&Q placard just about covering up the ODEON sign. I've still got a steel tape I bought in there

ISTR the man at B&Q featured in some dumb TV commercials presumably featuring a male model who you like to identify with. He may have been a bit of a smartarse as well.

Not the Gillingham one? But I expect they did grab cinemas in the early days. The one round here was a tatty old warehouse.

Acton. They only had it on a shortish lease as the whole area was scheduled for clearance to become first a Safeway, and now a Morrison's supermarket. A very long established

- 80 years plus - hardware, gardening,houseware,and toolshop around the corner Poores of Acton went at the same time. Now Morrisons car-park. They had a genuine old fashioned fork-handles counter at the back with all the drawers etc. They thought they were closing for good and among other things sold off all their stock of 1/4 whithworth machine screws in all lengths for peanuts. I bought several lifetime's supply. Only square nuts though. Someone else must have got there first. Instead of closing they moved to a shed on an industrial estate but their prices now are simply no match for the likes of Screwfix and Toolstation.

I wasn't familiar with The Man at B&Q, simply assuming the poster had made a reference to that much better known individualy, the (collective) Man at C&A.

You admit to living in that shithole? No wonder you're dumber than a rock, the piss-poor air quality has clearly rotted your brain.

The fact that you cared enough to respond with your teary-eyed sniffling.
