You hate, I dislike it.. Mice/rats love it

That really kick started my hatred for it. Stuck under a "mobile home" for two days, in the cold, dark and wet replacing plastic pipe for copper using pushfit copper fittings!

Had to work on my back, amongst dead mice, droppings and try to shuffle about under the chassis which came as low as my chest!

dole scum tenants that have been there all their life and expect everything for free and dont like it when they dont get it there way..

Big corporate businesses turning to the plumbing industry to cash in which in turn takes away work from small businesses..

the government and their green deal, the letting agent i work for are having 20 boilers replaces, 20 boiler jobs i wont be getting.. thanks..

Smoke matches called strikes! Strikes what exactly? The electrician getting in my way because the smoke matches sure as hell won't "STRIKE" on the tub lid!

I have these and they are awful, they don't strike, even light em on the hob and they still go out!

Garbage arnt they! It's all pts sell though, I use about 8 checking case seals!

 

[Dannypipe]

I had a Neta heat to check the other week, and had these. Crap things, I had to borrow a box of matches to light em.

I also run a mirror around case seals. Any steam on the glass is a good give away.

Has anyone tried the Hayes smoke pen? I bought one and think its great, one smoke stick lasts for ages, way better than 'strikes'

 

[Dannypipe]

They look good, but they're not cheap are they?
