Me and camerabloke did a job for a friend of his, mates rates etc you know the drill, anyway after a few heated discussions ahe decided he couldn't afford any more of our charges and decided he would do things his way.
Camerabloke got a call the other day, could we go around and check some work he has done, a lesson to all you DIYers, you cant do what you think you can, it costs you in the end.

Update for you, after girding our loins me and camerabloke went around to see what Mr DIY had done to his electrics, knocked on the door a few minutes went by and a bleary eyed DIYer opened the door, don't know what he had been up to it was 1400 hrs, "oh hi mate bit tired can you come back later".

Well I didn't know what to say, well I did but I didn't because there were some kiddies playing in the street, cheeky barsteward, I turned away a bit smartish, muttering to myself, camerabloke looked bemused, got in the motor and Fox Trotted Off. Sorry it turned out to be a damp squid, needless to say wont be going back.
