    Re: Kitchenfitters tricks!

    B/I dishwasher wouldn’t come out after removing all the screws.
    Wound all four legs up still no joy.
    Gave it an almighty tug (after getting customers permission) only to find it had been screwed into the units from inside before the worktops had been fitted :eeek:
    Then there’s the countless decor doors stuck on with NO NAILS !!!!
    The manufacturers do the installation instructions in picture format now for the benefit of illiterate installers but they still manage to c0ck it up!

    Re: Another joke.

    A man and woman went to a restaurant and the lady wanted the mild mannered green squid with the hairy lip from the tank for her main course.
    The waiter took the mild mannered green squid with the hairy lip to the kitchen and gave it to the french chef jervaisse.
    As he raised the cleaver to chop off its head, it looked up at him with puppy dog eyes and said “please dont kill me” and he couldn’t.
    So he called over the german washer up Hans and told him to kill the squid.
    As Hans raised the cleaver to chop off its head the mild mannered green squid with the hairy lip looked up at him with puppy dog eyes and said
    “please dont kill me” and Hans couldn’t do it either.

    The moral of the story is that Hans that do dishes can be as soft as jervaisse with a mild green hairy lipped squid!!!!

That wasn’t’ his biggest problem, I knew the road and there was no way he could get much further along it

    Wasn’t Hungarian was he?
    There was one in the news this week and they had to lift his truck out with a crane when he got stuck between two buildings on a single track road. 😈

    Re: Free Call-Out Charges – Good business sense?

    An old quote but still true nevertheless

    It’s unwise to pay too much, but it’s unwise to pay too little.
    When you pay too much you lose a little money, that is all. When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything, because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing you bought it to do.

    The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot. It can’t be done. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it’s well to add something for the risk you run and if you do that, you will have enough to pay for something better.

    John Ruskin (1819 – 1900)

    Re: I’ve got a samsung fridge and its wonderfull!!!

    If we’re having a what never goes wrong thread I nominate my Whirlpool ARG498 (proper) American side by side fridge freezer.
    Plugged it in in 1998 and haven’t even had to change a light bulb.
    But then again they don’t make them like that any more do they 😈 😈

    Delia Smith’s cookery tips

    Delia’s Way
    Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent ice-cream drips.

    The Real Woman’s Way
    Just suck the ice-cream out of the bottom of the cone, for God’s sake. You are probably lying on the couch with your feet up eating it anyway.

    Delia’s Way
    To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes.

    The Real Woman’s Way
    Buy Smash and keep it in the cupboard for up to a year.

    Delia’s Way
    When a cake recipe calls for flouring the baking tin, use a bit of the dry cake mix instead and there won’t be any white mess on the outside of the cake.

    The Real Woman’s Way
    Tesco’s sells cakes. They even do decorated versions.

    Delia’s Way
    If you accidentally over-salt a dish while it’s cooking, drop in a potato slice.

    The Real Woman’s Way
    If you over-salt a dish while you are cooking, that’s tough sh!t. Please recite with me the Real Woman’s motto: “I made it and you will eat it and I don’t care how bad it tastes.”

    Delia’s Way
    Wrap celery in aluminium foil when putting in the refrigerator and it will keep for weeks.

    The Real Woman’s Way
    It could keep forever. Who eats it??

    Delia’s Way
    Cure for headaches: Take a lime, cut it in half and rub on your forehead. The throbbing will go away.

    The Real Woman’s Way
    Cure for headaches: Take a lime, cut it in half, and drop in 8 ounces of vodka. Drink the vodka. You might still have a headache, but you won’t give a sh!t.

    Delia’s Way
    If you have a problem opening jars, try using latex dishwashing gloves. They give a non-slip grip that makes opening jars easy.

    The Real Woman’s Way
    Why do I have a man?

    And finally, the most important tip……….

    Delia’s Way
    Freeze leftover wine into ice-cubes for future use in casseroles.

    The Real Woman’s Way
    Left-over wine???? Hellllooooooo!!!!!

    Re: repairs@ do you get many?

    Likewise here,they try the 40 odd repairers in the YP first then repairs@ so you know it will be a pig of a job when you get one.
    Then they ask for response by email.
    Whats wrong with picking up the phone! 👿
