plastic speed fits easy and quick aswell chart question is what is a man of your calibre doing going threw water pipes lol

To be honest, I had a water leak and had to replace a couple of floor boards in the spare bedroom.

I finished the job and as I was leaving I stood on a squeaky board that had been annoying me for years, so, tools in hand, I drove a screw through it and straight through a pipe that was immediately below the floor board ! 
Those lazy b*****ds at Barratts had just notched the top of the joist to run the pipes instead of running them through the middle of the joist.

Just imagine if I had done such a shoddy job on a 747 ????

Cheers.

To misquote Shakespeare’s Shylock; “ If you prick me, do I not bleed ?”.

In other words, none of us are perfect…..

Your lesson for today, young master !

A slight change to the subject, But you would not believe the amount of motorbikes i have had to rewire because someone has ran the loom over the frame under the seat. The seat just wears through the wires with the weight of the rider on it.
