Same basic meaning though.

I can't tell you how many people's versions of that song I've heard... we all went and looked it up once

The craziest misunderstood version went something like:

Dirty Dee and the ThunderCheifs. Makes you wonder what people are attatching significance to!!


I don't need to do the chainsaw bottle opener thing, I've been informed that that's what my Tiblocs are for SOMEONE's been drinkin on the job, lol.

PS Know what song says, Therrin, just trying to throw in a little dialect. Lost I guess?

Thought song was applicable to thread. Picts are little hard to swallow without a little laugh in there maybe.

well the first post was in London Borough of Brent the second in L.B. Southwark
unfortunately it is the same all over London. there are a few L.A s that encourage good work but not many. for most it s the cheapest that gets it.

Being the cheapest should tell the owners to look out
I just got a return job from a fella that I pruned his trees for 3 years ago, he knows I'm more expensive than the hacks, but he'd sooner pay for them to be done properly.

If that's what goes on public display endorsed and paid for by the local govt you got buckley's chance with a home-owner.

Fine example of "do what I say not what I do" rules!
