Hey Loveleak! If you zoom in and look carefully you can see where your camcovers are dripping!!! 

[paul.lovejoy]

no probs with cam covers Drizzle has been there done it as well as lots of other car type things engine purrs no leaks at all anywhere its silky smooth doesnt even smoke when wifey drives it with her lead boots on

The houses i was there 3 years working on those great job just me most of the time, developer chappy built them then decided before they were completeley finished he wanted them for himself, pretty unique houses designed as we went along with some very nice finishes, his mates thought he was mad just employing me on an hourly rate to do most of the work until we finished. Build cost £1.5 million value big house £2.5 million smaller house £1.5 million. If it wasnt for the damm ressesion he would be building another house  heres hoping

Dont envy you builder boys , me dad just retired when the bubble burst and he's been a brickie all his life ... his old gang are having to travel to london and back every day and sometimes turning up and told to go back as no work available  a lot of them doing odd jobs locally to make ends meet , many people want work doing and will only pay peanuts , thats what i found when i was self employed  sign of the times .

[paul.lovejoy]

no its not good out there a lot of good tradesmen being forced out by cheap imigration Labour talking proper tradesmen 5 year apprentership not the stupid norm nowadays 6 months health and safety training and your vertually qualified ffs, goverment say theres a trades shortage come on in and work in England were you a carpenter yes ::)mmm are you sure, yes my friend he tell you so. oh ok then heres your cis card.

Englishman you a carpenter yes, wheres you certificate of apprentership, list of previous employers oh and let me just shove this camera up your arse. Pass all theses tests, ok you can have a card, but if your selfemployed we will make it very difficult for you, just climb off my soap box now

looking to start a little workshop up doing wood carving bowl turning etc again no money in it as very nice items get inported for quite frankly rediculous money but huge job satisfaction, and just do jobs in between to keeep some money coming in
