I fucking love the words "plinth" and "pelmet"
They should be used far more often in erotic fiction

also also ... why don't you just pay somebody to do it and go on holiday until it's finished

(old man river possible lesbian, Fri 27 Mar 2015, 11:18, Reply)

If you can pay someone to do something and it costs less than (time it would take you * your hourly rate) then you totally should.

Thats why I have paid people to do the Gas and worktops. Two jobs I would have fucked up
Whereas Plumbing and Electrics are a piece of piss and I've only had to pay to get them signed off.
( Peej, Fri 27 Mar 2015, 11:24, Reply)

I say them, the plumbing doesn't need signing obviously.

dude, if you're going to lie on the internet, make it convincing
we all know you don't have indoor plumbing or electricity in cornwall.

I say things like 'Phil seems like a nice bloke, I'd like to meet him' and when faced with a challenge I wonder aloud 'What would Phil do?' because you inspire me to be the best person I can

she is an ugly person, inside and out, where as i am made of love

( MEATSNAKE Richard Hammond, Fri 27 Mar 2015, 11:56, Reply)

The thing is, beauty shines from within and I just know that if she was just a little bit nicer it would show and she would look beautiful
and less like the horrible hag what she is!
( Peej, Fri 27 Mar 2015, 12:04, Reply)

There is a painting of her in the locked room that becomes more beautiful as she becomes more and more horrible in real life.
Sometimes I sit and stare at it for hours wondering where it all went wrong, I think it's probably something to do with that meat feast pizza.

and shipped in...

Just out of curiosity, what exactly do you think I use to power the device I am using to connect to the internet?
I'm pretty sure it requires electricity.

Magic powers to produce Electricity.
In Cornwall. My right foot provides the magic for the indoor plumbing.

We are paying people to do some bits and I'm doing the rest myself
We used a complex mathematical equation to work out that I can't afford to pay people for everything so I better give up some weekends.
