Why did you not like him? In retrospect some comments seemed strange!

Its not tat I didn't
like him he was a plasterer pretending to be a plumber, and actually doing it in people's houses and charging for it!
 
I'll be honest I was taken in completely. As I said before I have an old school friend driven to the brink of suicide over his dyslexia, it wasn't as easily diagnosed back then. It left me with a vulnerability where dyslexia is concerned. Consequently I got snotty and wielded a big stick.

To those of you I upset I apologise. I admit I was blinkered.

I sent this guy two Rothy pipe slices in good faith.....no good turn goes unpunished I suppose. :veryangry2:

some little tyke stole my chainsaw, strimmer and most of the contents of my garage a while back, what made me feel better was the chainsaw needed a new roller on the blade guide and i had taken off the chain catcher to do an earlier chain swap and service, so anyone using it would be in for a shock when the chain flicked off :)

I wouldn't be surprised if the theif couldn't sue you for that the way things are now.
 
He used to be on here as something like 'Tiling Spread'.

I recognised his posts style immediately when he came back on.

Fair play to Croppie for fighting his corner. Never stop giving people the benefit of the doubt mate. That's a good trait.

I have met Supper Plumb in the flesh. He sold me something, I can't even remember what it was now, on the forum under his old username. It was a mixed bunch of stuff as he said he was quitting plumbing and going back to plastering. You could probably dig out the old thread somehow. Anyway, I thought it was leggit, I would never knowingly buy nicked tools. I gave most of it away anyway. (The benders I mentioned yesterday). Shame he's a wrong un. That's life.
 
Glad I backed out of having him working for me then!

I'll be honest, I also fell for the dyslexia, and never thought he was getting tools etc. by deception but what decided me not to employ him was that one day he's boasting about having fitted a ballofix, a week later he's claiming to have fitted several full bathroom suites, then a couple of weeks later claimed to have installed full heating systems. Nobody with that kind of experience posts pictures of a ballofix...

Still, I only had him as a bullsh merchant, not a thief...

Shame really...

I've got an old set of gordon grips that jamb the fingers lying somewhere I saw them the other week.
If you want punishment i'll send you them for free if you promise to post photos of your damaged fingers :wink: :lol:
 
i had some fittings off tiling spread as well. oh and he's gone as well (not by me though)
