Where does your forum username come from?

[Dan]

Just wondering, where does your forum username come from?

I'm sure many, like mine, are just their name. Or perhaps business name. But what about the others?

I use my name. Different people have different thoughts. Some use company name, some use car model, some use stylish words etc.

There's a lot in the name. In the 70is i had a Co. Action line 24 hour plumbing service. It allowed me the opportunity to be out at will, also number 1 in yellow pages when ABC was king. The out included playing card half the night, golf, fishing and other misdemeanors.
Resulting in an expensive divorce, banks using "Action Line"(I was flattered) and an escape to Cornwall. Easily Lead was used but thought better and now trade as Just Lead. Nothing more to report other than old age and boredom. For the younger people lead was about before plastic.

Hello stranger how are you Peter....hope you are well did you ever get round to finishing your DVD on lead work....be lucky regards Turnpin

Thanks for your thoughts Turnpin, in answer to your question no. My motivation is waning, although 90% is on film, i dither with this bit and that bit. Unable to complete. Perhaps another winter will improve moral. You will see more of me on the forum as i will be doing a bit of marketing here. As i have been lucky enough to have skilled labour that giving me more time to manage the selling side. Catch up soon.
Wishing you luck, Just Lead

Lead is soft like plastic -but did rats ever claw/chew at it ?

Oh yes. Rats can, and do, gnaw pretty much everything. I don't think lead actually attracts much interest from rats but, if it's there, they really aren't fussy.

Rats had gnawed gas pipes at blast house
