House fixy-uppy shit

[Rico1304]

Alright la, appreciate the discount you gave. Had the fella out yesterday and he gave me a quote before I told him about the discount. He emailed me a revised quote last night with it on but the £400 boiler discount was missing from it. Do you know if that gets taken away if you take the staff discount?

 

Any news on the job?

The staff discount can't be used in conjunction with any other offer I'm afraid.

 

Nowt yet, won't hear for a fortnight.

Is resealing a bath easy?

Is resealing a bath easy?

Mastic around you mean? Yeah, scrape out all the old seal, fill the bath with water to around 15% and then seal. Et voilà!

So easy even a child could do it!  I'll get babby D on the case

We got our shutters put in yesterday, they're fucking amazing, I can have the light coming in through the top while the bottom is shut so I can dance about to my Diana Ross Greatest Hits in complete privacy. Great for keeping out the light in the bedroom too,

 

We've got the guy coming round to put the perfect fit blinds in the French doors & windows in the kitchen on Saturday & that's our new house pretty much finished two & a half months after moving in. Apart from the flat pack fucking cot I have to build *groan*.

From a sceptical start I've warmed to the idea of these. So what would I be looking out for?

We went to Hillary's, the only issue with them is that we ended up having to put blackout blinds behind them in the bedrooms due to light coming through the shutters (we found this out in Spring).

 

In the living room, they are the best things ever for privacy, setting the light and for peeking out of like a 1940s film baddie. They had various types of shutters you can pick so that's down to personal taste.

I need door handles.

 

Any recommendations?

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

I need door handles.

Now if you wanted four candles or fork handles I would be your man.

[Champ]

Another clue, please, Richard

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

Another clue, please, Richard

I know, I can't get a handle on it.

[Hand Shandy]

I'm picturing TheBitch trapped in his front room, unable to open the door...

[Harry Squatter]

Put together a big fuck off wardrobe with sliding doors, a bed and 2 sets of drawers. All with a hangover as well.

Can you get to Narnia through the wardrobe?

 

More likely a gay bar, as it would require going into the closet.

Yes. It's a direct portal to the Lisbon

[TheBitch]

Another clue, please, Richard

The things you put on doors, you pull the thing down and it latches and unlatches in a hole in the door frame.

 

I need 9 of them.

 

And hinges.

Yeah, yeah. It's just that I had you down as a man that might know about or know a man who might know these kind of things

[TheBitch]

Yeah, yeah. It's just that I had you down as a man that might know about or know a man who might know these kind of things

I had you down as the kind of good woman who would tell me what are good ones at a good price.

 

B&Q?

Wickes?

What kind of look are you after?

[TheBitch]

What kind of look are you after?

You tell me what I should be looking for, as I don't know what is a good look and what isn't.

 

That's why I come on here, Champ, for you to tell me, then I go out and buy it and fit it and I look like I know what I'm doing to little miss Voldemort indoors.

Shouldn't you be asking her what look she'd like? Are we talking vintage, cosy, contemporary here or heavy duty hinges for your side gate?

 

Having said all that, my first stop would probably be Howdens unless you want proper fancy ones
