    Guns,guns, and more Guns

    Off topic (again) but what's people's thoughts on this? Imo I think they had every right to show the arms but not fire until an attempt to clearly harm them was made. I.e self defence only. Article attached for reference...

    Christmas period?

    Solid tips mate thanks, the local pages for me have strict no advertising rules on, it's ridiculous. They just delete any mention, they only allow recommendations, I'm gonna get a mate to "ask for some wardrobes" and then swoop in. Facebook and Instagram are already up but not generated any...

    Guns,guns, and more Guns

    That would be upto the individual to choose if they need to defend themselves, if a woman wants to defend herself against domestic violence, go get something to use for defence. If another woman doesn't feel she needs one, she doesn't have to get one. It's not for us to allocate it's for them to...

    If someone goes out with a weapon and causes harm, the consensus is, they're a bad person😉.

    Guns,guns, and more Guns

    I've definitely found this too, I'm in the sticks and noticed if you speak to someone near you, they'll gladly tell you about their outing the night before or whenever. Tell someone that lives in the city they'll debate if they should call the police 😆

    Guns,guns, and more Guns

    I think most people actually don't go to the range with it to be honest, which kind of defeats the point, anyone that's tried using a pistol (myself included) knows how much of a challenge it is, even more so than a rifle. It's a completely different method even in a controlled range. Add that...

    Christmas period?

    I'll have a look now, I did have one from Hull harassing me at one point... Their number remains firmly on my blocked list. Rang me up 3 times. The end of the second call went something like no I'll contact you if I change my mind, then blocked them. So they rang on a different number! Then...

    Christmas period?

    It's more of a local area magazine, goes to about 20,000 homes I think. Not strictly a parish magazine😆

    Christmas period?

    Hi, hope you all had a very merry Christmas. Do people find there's a mad rush at christmas or people stop accepting quotes? I had about one job a month all the way up to mid November, then it just fell flat. I'm currently getting a lot of my work from MyBuilder, about 4 jobs have come off of...

    Completely unrelated to any above points but thought it was interesting, there's about 228 police officers per 100,000 people in the UK (https://researchbriefings.files.parliament.uk/documents/SN00634/SN00634.pdf) and about 206 police per 100,000 in the US (Total police personnel per 100,000...

    Self employment

    Yes very true. The struggle is finding someone that wants to teach for the sake of teaching, instead of for the sake of financial incentives. I have had a few potential employers say to me, "stop the course you're doing and start our course". Even though the course they want me to do is 2 levels...

    The availability trick is quite clever actually 😉

    Self employment

    Yes apart from the integrated appliances I have a fair amount of confidence regarding making a kitchen. So this is probably what I would do. Regards Facebook etc that's already on the go, it helps a bit. It's getting more views etc as time goes on.

    Self employment

    That's the problem, trying to find someone willing to take me on at an age of mid twenties is nigh on impossible when they can take on a school leaver and pay £174 a week. No one is interested unfortunately.

    Self employment

    I might have a look at rated people. I'm going to definitely try the cad and kitchen services and see what flies as you say. I give hampers to customers that ask for built ins etc, they prove very popular. Just filled with goodies etc. Yes haha, there's absolutely loads of sash windows in...

    Self employment

    Business cards are actually on the way as we speak. Had some double sided ones made up in a F&B cream with logos on etc. Give a few to customers to pass round after I've done work for them. Saying no seems to be something I've had to do a fair bit just recently. I reviewed my finances and...
