[Dave]

I voted for Andy. 👍

 

[Andy Allen]

cheers Dave...

 

[MTiler]

John Simons V-ta Architectural Tiling is up for it, his work is amazing.

 

[Dan]

Voted for Andy already also. John Simon's work does look smart though.

 

[J Sid]

So you vote for mates rather then quality of work produced? Sums up all that's wrong these comps

 

[Dan]

I voted for somebody I know, but who's work is good. But yeah you're right. Need nameless entries really and then reveal them at the end. And maybe a 1st 2nd 3rd rather than just a win.

It would only work with tilers. The adhesive firms will all create false votes like they used to with our annual adhesive competitions until I called them out on it.

Mind you it isn't rocket science so false votes across the entries will be rife.

All the entries are top notch work but as said my vote went to father and son outfit , Andy carroll.
Yes ive known him a few year’s and the entry was very nice work and if thats a vote for a friend , then so be it.
imho they deserve a win 👍👍👍

 

[Dan]

I'm gonna send a mass email out and help Andy Carroll but, as the email and will state (and as it did when we helped @MissTiler) people need vote for what they think is best. But it'll give them a nudge to vote for Carroll if they're undecided between him and another perhaps.

 

[Dan]

Please vote for Andy Carroll and Son Tiling – The business is well known in the tiling industry, and it’s one that has done a lot of good as a whole. They’ve provided advice on TilersForums.com that has helped budding tilers become awesome tilers. And then their advice has gone on to help other tilers become awesome tilers.



By all means, checkout all the other entries. They’re good. Vote for one of those if you feel those are better.



But as a forum, one of us people are one of the options available, and we would like to see you vote for us.



Scroll through the options below, and vote at the end. Andy Carroll and Son Tiling. – Your good deed will come back around soon enough. 🙂

Why Andy?
Haven't seen him on here for a long long time or have I just missed him?
Thought you were having a cull on members who hadn't posted recently Dan.

Please vote for Andy Carroll and Son Tiling – The business is well known in the tiling industry, and it’s one that has done a lot of good as a whole. They’ve provided advice on TilersForums.com that has helped budding tilers become awesome tilers. And then their advice has gone on to help other...

He's one of the forum members that are in it - that's all it is for me mate.

Can't speak for anybody else.

He's a good tiler. But I know dozens like him. But he's in the comp, and I'd be up for him winning it. So sod it, he's got my vote.

I'd rather a forum member win it with our help, than somebody who isn't a forum member and nobody from our forums vote.

Also, TTA and us need to get on. And it shows us being willing to work together if we plug one of their comps and schemes I guess? - Not sure. Hope it does.

 

[J Sid]

@Dan
We will have to agree to disagree on this Dan

 

[Dan]

Neh, I think I see your side moreso as a guy.

But as a forum, we need show support when one of our guys enters something I think.

But I'm with you mate. As a guy, overly plugging just one entry isn't fair at all.

But it's one category, in one years comp, in one awards do, one year, for one website.

We're not going to break the internet doing it.

I hope @MissTiler managed to use her win as a Unique Selling Point herself and perhaps it got her some extra dosh one time. Maybe we can do the same for Andy.

Taking my forum hat off, I'm not silly mate, I'm the same as you I think. You're normal too.

John Simons V-ta Architectural Tiling is up for it, his work is amazing.

Rest assured Sharon, when you won it, you won it on merit, as it should be 👍

 

[Andy Tiler]

We appreciate all your votes guys 👍

 

[Dan]

Yeah I didn't mean for that to sound like that. At the time of the mass email to 8000 email addresses I did say to look through them all and pick what you want to pick.

 

[Ash-niche]

John simmons gets my vote, excellent work and very diverse which it should be! I was a part of the team that worked on the deansgate project that is up for a couple of awards so any vote for the guys would be appreciated

Steve is a very optimistic guy.

I don't think we did a email-shot last year so that win would have been quite natural.

Has he entered this year do you know?

It must be a real pleasure working for him.

Think he ran a tile forum once, not sure whether its around still mind.
