Yup.

Paul Smith let this out on Tilers Talk.

Google Sam Hoffman Tilers Community and who ranks number 3? (under some adverts).

Was about the end of November 2024 and Sam Hoffman called me "a bit downs looking" and used 2 laughing emoji's.

He has still not apologised.

Had loads of chances to as we were speaking at least before and since. But not anymore.

He's spouted something out to Tilers Community that it was ages ago and he's sorted it out with me.

But I'd like to inform you that he hasn't sorted anything out at all.

I'll build on this thread with any other run ins with him. Including one where he's stalking customers of Danny Bowers Midland Trade Tile Supply (Tile Central Limited) who went bust. To sell the same tiles and make a grand out of it. Hunting a chance to earn money off unfortunate people who lost thousands each.

@TimelessJohn we had to roll back the forum when you last replied to this, we lost the thread. Hope you respond with the same again mate. This is disgusting, I am disabled, and he gets a kick out of calling, somebody, "a bit downs"!!!!!!

He's in my phone as Downs Boy now. Not because he has DOWN SYNDROME (it's not called downs), but because he will forever be remembered for saying it to me.

The owner of Tilers Forums, before he knew I was the owner of Tilers Forums. His tune turned semi-professional as I'm sure he didn't want to risk having all the companies that financially back the community, contacted and asked to comment on the story. What with us being publishers for 20 years.

The old phrase was don't pick a fight with a person who buys their ink by the truckload.

These days I wouldn't pick a fight with somebody who buys their servers by the rack.

I'd like an apology posted to your Tilers Community and on Tilers Forums.

Until then I'll be contacting companies for comment starting with the ones hosting courses with you as a "trainer".
