He said “I’ll be there Monday at 2”. Sure enough, he turned up, measured up and said he’d email me a quote the next day. No email as of yet, and no answer to my calls and emails. Called another Plummer , he said “you’re in luck , I’m in your area tomorrow so I’ll call in and give you a quote”. Waited in all day, and he’s a no show ! If they don’t want the job, why not just say so ? If they are busy with more urgent jobs, why not give me the courtesy of a phone call or an email ? Or, as the title of my thread, are they just c**ts ? Cheers. i thought you’d have that fixed chart be a rad or an olive repressure bleed done lol Edited December 22, 2023 by mC HULL Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So to fit a metric size will certainly mean a modification to the pipe work. These days I’d rather leave that to a professional. Cheers. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

An old c**t who’s had a lifetime of work and now has enough money to pay for some other c**t to do the work while this old c**t just watches and criticises the c**t who will charge this old c**t a small fortune to do a job that this old c**t is to lazy to do the cunting job himself.
