On the Tilers Forum they do this as a bit of fun and forum members post pics of the jobs they have done that month and everyone can post votes on that thread.

Can we not do this?

Does that count as an install?
 
Seems like a good idea show off our own skills need people to be willing to upload photos though
 
Congrats SimonJohns on your remarkable install. Like the wee pump installed in the middle of the baby. Stopped doing these types of installations as the last two were exhausting on completetion and one has been ongoing for 8 years and another for 15 months and Mrs System3 has me watching the theory side instead (**** channel!)

Thank you
 
cant do that?.

my tap repairs are better than any ones but they dont picture well?
 
It would have to be bathrooms or boiler pipework maybe, I agree though uploading is time consuming and my Blackberry is a nightmare.

Thank you.
 
i did actually mention this very subject to dave last night not that i'm stealing your thunder system but the seed is already planted lol
 
Could be any subject we want. One month could be soldering (without snots) another could be pipe bending, another could be large format pipework etc. The list is endless and would not only be a bit of fun but would encourage excellence amongst the members who contribute to the competition. With the latter we could have a beginners competition and encourage the newbies.

There are other very easy ways to upload pics through your moby.

Simon, I've still got my kids scans. Being a dad is the best feeling in the world and I wish you and yours truly all the very best for the future.

thanks very much

We are expecting start of june
 
One thing though, stock up with fittings, because when you have to start buying nappies, come June you won't be able to afford them!
 
Great news Simon!! If its your first get as much sleep as poss now before its too late!!
 
It's our first. I'm a lil excited and a lil nervous.

Don't know what to expect etc

But I've learnt one thing already. I'm glad I'm a plumber earning 70 -80k a year lol ;-)

They ain't cheap
 
Forget the expenisive disposable nappies, apparantly my mum saved money by wrapping me in some kind or Orvil nappie with a safety pin that was washed and re used.
 
Let me give you a little tip from my own experience. When the Mrs is giving birth, no matter what you do, do not ever be tempted to look down!!!
 
At the birth of my daughter last year, it was chaos. The anaesthetic wore off half way through the section and my poor wife felt everything, every little cut with the scalpel. Then the surgeon asked me " Oh look, the baby's head is coming out of mummy's tummy" and like a muppet I looked down at all the blood and gore and through up all over the operating theatre.

Mind you that gas and air stuff is better than a bottle of your finest!

My 2nd tip is dont let the Mrs read this thread!!
 
Lol sorry for takin the thread over. Didnt mean to

Thank you all
 
Congratulations on the baby SimonJohns :)

On the topic of the thread, if a comp does run would I be ok to upload photos of my college work? ATM I only do small repair/replace jobs. I'd only upload pictures of my own work, I have nothing to gain from lying.
 
if you've done the work and you're confident enough to show it to us lot i say go ahead lol

I wouldn't say about being confident

If your starting out or 20yr experienced. Constructive criticism is always good

I doubt anyone on here will be derogative to anyone else
 
congrats simon,on our second kid the wifey had a c section,not nice to watch and a massive op for a women,dont underestimate what they have to go through it makes a diverter change on a worcester 240 look tame,the surgeon slipped on my other halfs blood shes out of it and her innards are on a drip tray,not good but she and baba survived so best wishes and i hope all goes well bound to bump in to you one day as only in maesteg

I work mainly in Cardiff and on commercial. But my dad uses dougfields and I'm down there now and again

Have been looking for your van but haven't seen it yet

Thank you.
 
Back on topic, can we get this going. If the tilers can do it, surely we can too.

Agreed Simon. No one will be derogative to anyone else.

SamH, College work would be ok and you'd benefit from experienced plumbers giving constructive critisism.

Sounds like a great idea. We could have a different topic per month.
 
Im busy enough in the Ness. I've heard there is a lot of work in aberdeen. But You hear that all the time.. That's why the plumbing market has been flooded. IMO
