@ LordSpunky

Yup... me wee pals the Squirrels take up a fair bit of my time but my main interest/hobby (not sure what to call it) is music, couldn't go a day without listening to my music (it's even playing while I sleep)... :)

Course the old fags is my only vice 40+ a day and at least 6 cans of Pepsi and as many packets of Crisps that I can scoff in between mealtimes... :)

Like yourself DIY is my other big thing being a Carpenter by trade (not a Joiner) woodwork is my favourite but like yourself I can do any aspect of the building trade Electrician, Bricky, Plasterer, Plumber etc... (though Metalwork I'm not keen on)... :)

Cars are one thing I don't like I've owned a few but never learned to drive and even if I wanted to I wouldn't be allowed so cars have never really be of any interest to me... :)

Tinkering with anything electrical I enjoy (old stuff mainly) as there's not a lot tinker with in today's electronics being all chips & surface mount crap... :(

Not sure about your wife though (need to see a piccy first....) :lol: but wee Janice the cleaning lady helps out in many ways and is quite handy cos unlike the ex-wife she at least goes home to her own place... ;)

PS: I also like phoning up big companies to complain about things, not that I buy or use any of their products, I just enjoy calling them up to tell them that their product or service probably stinks, they seem to get a bit confused over that... :D

Cool... A Moo Moo on a treadmill... :)



Hardly "ECO friendly" though one of them big beasties puts out nearly as much fart gas as Dammy does when he talks about CUSA... :)

"Hi, I don't own one of your products per say, but I'm sure they probably really suck and I'm pissed about it Godamit! What the HELL??! Who the hell do you think you are?! Selling crap products to unexpecting consumers, you got to be kidding me!"

Ya, gotta try that sometime! :)


That's the basic idea of it... ;)

Best thing is usually the person who answers hasn't got a clue what to say and they end up passing you to the complaints dept instead of just hanging up the phone... :D

The big multi nationals are the best one's as they try to remain as polite as possible despite the fact you can hear by the tone of their voice that they're pretty sure your taking the P... :)

Sometimes they'll even send you some discount vouchers for your next purchase of their products that you've never bought and never will... ;)
