Davies Timber at Wythall offer both a delivery and a cutting service. They have a natty piece of software which will work out the most economical way to cut the board based on the customer's cutting list.

It was a pleasure to meet you both, Chris and Chris, and I am chuffed to bits with the planer \:D/ :tool:

It seems to be a little known fact (and one that they don't broadcast ho ho) that the TV licence issuing and chasing is contracted out by the government to Capita the outsourcing company, see http://www.capita.co.uk/about-us/pages/bbctvlicensing.aspx. This is the same company that Birmingham...
