I can't stand pretenders, I meet them every day in tile shops/ builders merchants etc. They all talk a good job, but when it comes to walking the walk rather than talking the talk, they can't hack it.

I remember a trader local to me who had his van sign written as follows: ......... ........Ltd, General builder, plumber, plasterer, joiner, kitchen fitter, tiler, painter and decorator, roofing specialist, landscape gardener, ground worker, bouncy castles, childrens parties,(Dan Dan the magic man).

Come on this guy must have spent £1,000.00 to have his van written up, why can't we just stick to what we know?

I am just a tiler, I can do a little of most trades, but I am a tiler, so tiling is what I do.

No Dave I don't accept that rogue traders should be allowed to take work away from skilled tradesman but there is a line in discussing workmanship and naming the culprit in an open forum which can be perceived as a kangaroo court!
We all come up against 'cowboys' and you have to feel for the duped customers who engage them but naming and shaming makes it a personal issue.

It is not in an open forum , hence why I posted it in the arms.
