Nope it definately just aint you!

A couple of months ago I went to replace a normal gas fire with the letter box type opening with a DFE inset fire..

Took the old one out only to find it was bricked upto the letterbox! after an hour or so of knocking engineering bricks out I finally managed to get the fire in.. then about 1hr of re-arrangine the coals and checks it was gone 11pm, after starting at 7!

Or there is also the time I spent a good few weekends fitting a whole central heating system, boiler and hot water, the lot for a cousin and not getting paid a single penny for it... not even the £40 my Snickers trousers cos that I ripped putting the Shitty Ravenheat boiler on the wall! (don't those damned Italiens know how to use a file!).
