Getting money back from cowboy builders

Butti

Just been told off for leaving the downstairs light on, and had it explained to me how I can go downstairs turning the landing light on first, I don't need to leave the downstairs light on.

I'm sure I'll sleep better tonight with that gem.

Erm, if you pay the bills then who cares? Although I do tell Mr S off for leaving lights on... he always leaves every single light on :eek: Shame he isn't OCD about cleaning too... :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I still hear my dad saying 17.5% VAT on electricity any time I leave a light on. Way back when VAT was 17.5%

You all seem to have this attitude. You should try hanging on to your beautiful chopping board wot cost you £16 as someone threatens to bin it!!!!!!!!

I'm sure I'm going to lose it at some point, better not be holding the chopping board when I do.

Is he OCD too? Cos I'm fairly sure if a basalt chopping board is unhygienic he's not going to pass the bleach test!!!

Bleach is banned at my work because it's too dangerous - what do you think she would make of that?

By the way just to keep this on topic: it is not recommended for cowboy builders.

Miggy is closer for a BBC

Yeah just pm me her email address. I will do the rest LOL....(not).

I'm far from tidy....*awaits the destruction of the £16 chopping board* rofl......

I have an idea...april fools is coming up..why not put a piece of pork behind her radiator...she'll soon move out rofl....*now awaits this post to get deleted*...

Or feed her toad in the hole? Say times are tough.....it's all you had in....

Or if you have chickens put her laptop in the hen house

Best Delia tip. Make it in the evening, turn the oven off at the end of cooking and leave them in there overnight.
