Porcel-thin training day

[Stef]

It's exactly as Bri said, you seem to have a vision how someone looks and when you meet them..totally different.

I was late due to a flyover to the Isle of Dogs being shut by the police....

I know what you mean, it's strange how you get a mental picture of someone then when you meet them they are totally different from what you imagine..

Gutted i missed this but chuffed to bits to read that you all had fun. Nice one Ray. And i will get in to see you at some point soon.

 

[The Legend; Phil Hobson RIP]

Thanks Ray, Gary, and everyone involved, good to meet some new faces from TF and some old Friends.


The hospitality was second to none, the training spot on, I didn't do any fixing as I have fixed enough tiles in my time.


I was happy to be a spectator and enjoy watching some fine fixers work with these tiles of the future. A big thanks for the freebies, I never expected that, a real good day.

I was the old guy with the daft hair cut and glasses, sorry we were late, never got a name tag.

Thanks to Andy Carroll and son and Mrs Andy Carroll for booking the trains, the drop off /pick up, thanks to my mate Steve AKA Ozboz for the lift back to the train station.

These days are vital for our trade, if we stand still we stagnate and never move with the times.

So again thanks for the day.

Would like to add my thanks to Ray, Gary and the team for a great day. Proper hands on, using the product. Still can't believe how well it cuts. Came away with a confidence in recommending and fitting the product. Also learnt a few new things. Came away with a new cutter too. It is the simplest bit of kit I have ever seen, that can scribe a 1800mm tile.
great also to meet most of the core members on the forum. Even better to find that we all seem perfectly normal! .
all in a very good weekend.

thanks again Ray.

Really glad it was a great day for you all and gutted I missed it too. Nice one to Gary, Ray and those that haven't been mentioned for sorting it. The selflessness that is displayed at times on this forum is truly humbling!

That quote from you Phil just sums it up for me,
You as a tiler have forgotten more than most of us know when it comes to our trade & still you go on days like these as you want to keep at the top of your game & keep evolving.
Me & Deano had a good yap on the way up the road & I for one take my hat off to you Phil & if I can be as half as good as you then I would have done well..
An absolute pleasure to meet you & hope to meet you again.
Keep fighting & keep that chin up..
