Just to clarify, plasterboard does need to be solid dabbed around the whole perimeter of the wall, all sockets and window reveals, nothing to do with fire though. It's to do with draughts and cold air seeping in to the building, the solid dab help prevent this, houses with out solid dabs fail the air pressure tests, solid dabs are in the nhbc book of standards and in the building regs,

Tj.you could only laugh if you could see some of previous posts and responses re Swedish mike.!
i actually liked him from his early posts and he did have a tiling qualification that I don't have !
He had a pretty good knowledge of tiling practices or rather I should say better than me
but he did get angry and was quite confrontational.
i put that down to where he lived but that prognosis was based on my personal experiences working in Sweden myself on a number of occasions and Sweden is a very dark place to live in winter if you are not in the right frame of mind.
of course to you as an ex serviceman of our country you are trained to deal with any scenario given to you .
i find it interesting and also encouraging that many ex service men are turning to tiling as a profession.

Any ex service for me would be top of my list if I was looking for a new employees.

Thanks for that Johnny, and thanks for the compliment about ex forces (not that i think i'm anything special i might add) Guess coming from Haily you have a pretty good knowledge about the military and i know who to bell next time i experience a quiet patch :smilewinkgrin:

After having seen a few 'negative' posts about Swedish Mike i think i have miss read Widlers original post, i thought he had received his offensive email from Swedish Mike but under another name 'Tilsey'. I now realise thanks to JB and Deano that this is not the case and they are two different people, so offer my apologies to him for a couple of my comments.

I know what you mean about it being dark for half the year in Sweden, i was posted to Norway for five months and it is a similar situation there and having no daylight does certainly affect you after a while.

Thanks TJ
