If I got uptight every time a plumber said something rude to me, I would have keeled over from high blood pressure back in nineteen eighty something.

At the last count, I have to deal with 12,005 plumbers. Plus you lot on here.
There is only ONE Mr Freeman. How I hate that man!

this isn't you in one of your nvq photo evidence was it? lol
Not quite sure what you mean there?
I appreciate that the manner in which I trained is frowned upon by the time served plumbers in the industry. I've never tried to pretend I'm something that I'm not. I did the course alongside working with an experienced plumber who was a friend of mine & he also was sceptical about the content of the courses but was still good enough to be able to give me some work. I've worked hard to get where I am, & by no means do I consider myself an expert or experienced. I'm just trying to make a living in an industry that I am aware is over populated by doing an honest, hard days work & provide for my young family.
I shall stop there as I will admit I have over reacted & taken your humour in the wrong way. No excuse really, just been a difficult time with one thing & another & some things flick the rant switch!
Apologies again.
Are those flat brushes or round cant quite tell from the pics. I find the flat variety more usefull for the hexs I end up cleaning.

Round.
good that you have passion for achieving and fire in your belly tom 🙂
the difference is, you didn't fast track, pay for the gas portfolio, expect to be on 120k a year and then be too arrogant to ask for help!!
leaving poor customers in a bind when you wont admit you've ballsed up !!
Same with ash, you haven't done an apprenticeship but you have taken your time.
anyway, ive met a few apprenticeship served guys that are more than useless....
Is it just me or did that obnoxious Gas character have the posting style/phrases used by the equally nasty "dick puller" that was once on the Screwfix forum ?

There were similarities. Which is why he pinged my radar.
Would be nice if we could do away with the course cowboy phrase. I was an indentured apprentice and I dont give a stuff about how people go about their training etc. There are just as many muppets from both backgrounds.
I have respect for a good tradesman no matter how he got there. Anyway, hands up anybody who hasnt done some sort of course in the last 5 years 🙂

Completely agree. Instant ban for using the phrase 'course cowboy' from now on.
what if plasterer is in the same sentance?

Dotty
No. But I might allow 'decorator'
