Right ... Just been nudged to set this up by Paul.M and sounds a good idea following recent threads I've done in the Arms..

Rules....No Offensive material... edit if required before posting as this is the public arena.
Anything to do with the trade or in and around it ...H&S pic's welcome.



I've posted this a few times and this is at a mates house following a kitchen refirb several yrs ago. mg_smile:

justthe thought of baggage pipes brings this guy to mind.

Help me out... I can’t see the picture??

my brother in law was in the Scots Guards and played bagpipes. He’s appeared at the end of the Hootenany programme a number of times, but didn’t have the sense to ask for autographs.

How much would an Amy Whinehouse signature fetch these days?

Oh no! And here I am sitting in Berwick making use of Morrison’s free Wi-fi. (Picking it up in the car park)

The first one just needs ripping out and sorting....the second open JB needs a bit more investigation as to why the bell don't work?. It's fed directly from the rewireable CU and a bit worrying where the outgoing T+E is shooting off to, as well.

Love the bellwire!

That's what kicked me into doing a full check of our own house electrics several years after moving in (a job i was getting round to...), I found the whole of the lights and socket outlets in the loft wired in bellwire - two core of course, all light fittings class 1 metal fluorescent and naturally std 13A skt outlets..

I am a drummond!!

And yes, as above, A haggis is a sneaky little thing. you think you have it trapped and it escapes at a speed you have never seen before.
Only the best Scotts can catch one of the wiley little critters.
