can any point out any heads up/pointers they have learnt the hard way

Always good to learn from others.. what does a candle lose when it lights another candle?
 
Never be in a position where you ask the question to someone else;

"Is this cable dead?"
It usually results in a new pair of cutters.
ALWAYS check it yourself.
 
old yorkshire proverb:

see all, hear all, say nowt.

eat all, drink all, pay nowt.

and if ye does owt fer nowt, do it for yersen.
 
when handing over a bill always tell them not to tell anyone what you have charged because you dont do deals like that for everyone they feel special and pay faster and sometimes add a tip and they never know they are just another mug just like all the rest lol
 
Never try and drill a hole with the drill in reverse lol.
And never put screws or nails in the empty holes in floorboards etc.
 
Some days the supply of available swear words will be insufficient to meet your demands.


If you want something done right, do it yourself.
 
like the avatar kami. very appropriate. i, myself am at present suffering from divine wind. can't stop farting.
