Welcome Back Peter

To Roofing and RCS? Or just the RCS? Welcome back Matey. Or whatever you Irish say>>>

.............as Jed would say......FauxKing Merchant. (nice backpeddle BTW) :woohoo:>>>

Good grief, you know it's bad when you have to explain it all.

I'm not pissing anywhere except the toilet, or behind the tree.

My "Irish" wan't irish, it was cockney, unbeknownst to me. So I dig a little deeper.............. laughing at myself all the way, trying to figure out what would be a little more irish. As part of the humor I turn it with the Cockney comments, trying to be more "irish" in the process. Jed get's defensive, I respond with more of my own brand of humor, to which I lose more of the crowd, and Jed's about to start shooting into the side o' me hull.

Laugh with me, or laugh at me, it don't matter, it's all one big joke.

As bobby would say............... FauxKing Cockney's. LOL>>>

...........you're still bright egg, certainly brighter than many in, or out, of the roofing trade I have come across. Cockneys have their own dialect and I was just practicing....... a shot across the bows you might say......... an indication of what to expect when pissing on someones heritage. >>>

I used to be a bright young lad, but I confess I must have lost a step or two somewhere along the way. Totally lost.>>>

This from a septic who claims he's a pimple, but such solid stock don't talk turkish........What a merchant.....>>>

See, what I tell ya Peter? Not only be they scum, but they be sensiteeve lil'rascals too. ;)

I shoulda know'd 'at when he got all misty eyed when some homely scot opened 'er mouth, at he be an east sider. LOL>>>

"Cockney.............. scum o'dee earth, they be."

................easy now,...... pay attention to who's listening before you start throwing insults around..........>>>

Actually I be lernin at me ahrish be lahckin' 'n at cockney garbage leave me lookin a fer bit on the bullock side o things, but i be tryin' tuh git it right. 'fact uh jus leerne 'at me granny wouldabin a colleen an not a lassie. Or so I be told.

Cockney.............. scum o'dee earth, they be.

LOL>>>

Yeah but you never used to use the smileys and where's the blue van? Don't worry, I have it saved on my external hard drive along with a few other notables and daddybob's lesson on soldering and a few other timeless unimprovable originals.>>>

Hi Mike,

As ever the gentleman who endeavours to extend a greeting that makes the traveller feel right at home.

Ahem, Cockney in East London my old son, Indian Joes ? Brilliant :) you were practicing for this post LOL

As ever you are correct this forum is a bit like roofing once you post it is a part of what you are, I called by sometime back and was not impressed must have been during the upgrade.

I like this format reminds of the original ;)>>>

Lotto Oirish flowin throught me veins, ol'school. :)

Might not tell it by me las'name, but rumor has it that those fine lassie princesses that sailed in the belly of those old steamers could only marry Irish, or Hillbilly. LOL>>>

Mike, you write well with that Cockney accent!>>>

'owaya peter, it's gran' ter clap yer back blatherin' aboyt roofs if not actually doin' dem. Oi trust dat de pellet burner business is keepin' yer on yisser indian joes an' oyt av trouble. I've been reminded often de past year aboyt de article on "peak oil" dat yer sent me a couple years ago. Prophet Peter, 'as a bit av a rin' ter it, don't yer tink? Don't be a stranger, oi guess yer are proof dat once de coffee shop gets in yisser blud, yer canny git it oyt.>>>

Hey Peter. I typed one reply and the computer deleted it for me. Shoot! I posted a reply on Slateroofcentral about a domed metal roof you did a while back. I think it was about a year ago, but I only saw it about 3 weeks ago. Did you send the pics of the curved slate roofs on the cones that Joe used on my article? Very nice. Good to see that you are still working on roofs in some manner anyway. Glad to have your input back here. A lot of the old guys are back on now. It is a lot of fun. I am still "Old School">>>

Hi Mike,

You are spot on heating water is all that concerns the panel installer, they believe that silicone will last for 20 years and more, nothing about the unprotected steel edges sitting on the membranes either, one guy I challenged about it said it's only 15 kilos (30 pounds) :)

As I can fit and remove the panels from a plumbing point of view and after seeing the above I decided to register the web name solar repairs .com, all those nice little leaks will make for a very manageable days work to repair and the pay should be at least double ;)

Well we all have our dreams :)>>>
