dont forget the cost of posting a boiler to Scotland is as bad as one to Ireland

No its not. Posting a boiler to Scotland is the same as posting it to Winchester, or Petersfield. Posting it to Ireland is broadly the same as sending it to Helsinki.

 

[lame plumber]

So you send stuff to Helsinki but not over the road to Ireland

I was once seeing a lass
Who had a massive cold bum
She shivvered my face
When she sat on that place...

So i bought her a new intergass !!

Hey Gizmo, do you drive a van covered in checkatrade signwriting? And were you in our Fareham place today? I saw a van like that marked Lang Property Services

 

[gizmolang]

Yep that was me Ray , Short guy with the bald head

Nope, thats me. oops, no, I'm the tall, fat guy with the bald head. Sorry I couldnt stop to say "hi" but my appointment was waiting in reception.

Anyway, I'm glad we had this little chat, because now I feel slightly less bad telling you that you haven't won a free boiler.

Again.

This is getting to be a habit.

Sorry

 

[Ray Stafford]

There was a young plumber called Chappers
Whose work was maintaining your Crappers
His marital curse
He rendered in verse
although Mrs C went like the...

...lady that she clearly was! Why, what were you thinking?


Ian, congratulations. Your poem was epic, and you thoroughly deserve the freebie.

Normally, given my quixotic approach to life, that would be the kiss of death. But in this case, its an official declaration that you are the winner.

Stevetheplumber - congrats on second place (with Gizmo) but it would not be true to say it was "close". He trounced you.



Ian - I think that atouchofgas is booked on a course on 23rd July at Dobies heat centre Pumpherston. I don't know if that is close to you, but hopefully it will help.

 

[gizmolang]

Congrats Ian are you going to try it in your house

 

[turnpin]

well done to the winners and well done all who took part and of course to all you nasty people that didn't vote for me in the mystery prize....lol seriously many many thanks to to Ray at William's & Co who really is a top notch Sponsor in front of and behind the scenes for these forum's ......best regards Turnpinunk:

 

[Rickster123]

Well done chappy!

Wonderbar , firstly, I'd like to thank my wife for putting up with me for the last 11 years, she's my inspiration for the poem.
Secondly, I'd like to thanks the fantastic prize offered by the Intergas crew, I've heard many good things about the boiler so can't wait to get it on the wall.
Thirdly, to Ray and the wonderful team at Williams, i get all my big gear from them now (much to the annoyance of my local Ideal rep) and always pimp them up to guys interested in trying the best.
Finally, I think? Thanks to everyone who took part and voted for me, the boiler will also be going to a good cause as the money i make from the install will be going to the charity that helped a fellow gas man through the hard times as his wee girl fought a loosing battle with cancer.

What a gentleman.

Incidentally, you might mention to your local Ideal rep that we supply his company with data at 2 digit postcode level about the boilers that we ship around the country. This is so that they can assign the proper commission to the rep. So whilst we won't tell them who we are selling the boiler to, we will tell them how many we shipped to the EH postcode every month. If he isn't getting credit for your purchases, he needs to have a word with his gaffer.

 

[IDCHAPPY]

I think you're spot on Ray .
Oh and i am booked on the Intergas training course on the 23rd. More than happy to email pictures of the install to the Intergas guys and tell them what a fantastic gift it is for a well deserving charity a good but PR never hurt anyone

 

[jonnyswamp]

Well done Chappy and Ray & the Intergas team
Thoroughly worthwhile cause and a worthy winner, the best result all round

 

[Atouchofgas]
