i was driving past and thought id go and make a start on writing these quotes up and look to see if theres a way on word i can sort of automate it so i can just add different names of schools etc in the covering letter and tie it in with the spreadsheet etc as i dont get moments peace in work in the week to sit down and concentrate trying to look for ways to speed up quoting process in the long run when i have multiple quotes to send

if ti was just one or two places it wouldnt be a problem

it was a good job you went back rich,you would have flooded your unit completely
how much rent do you pay on your unit?

I thought you wern't leaving your computer there anymore after the unit got broken in to and all your kit was nicked?


Thinking about it, this is another of your windup posts isnt it.

How d'you stop a flood is basically what you're asking isn't it. Personally if that was me, I wouldn't bother getting out of bed in the morning to be honest. Sorry mate, but the answer to your question is turn the friggin tap off.

Araldite the hose to the connector before tightening it all up and then leave to harden for 24 hours before using.

Use plenty and don't be scared to over do it.

Richy - ignore Matt's comments like the one he posted. It's not worth putting fuel on an already stoked fire.

i have a laptop and i also have a desk top computer at unit

There's only one thing worse than flooding your unit unnecessarily and thats to tell the world that youve got back into the habit again of leaving your valuables in your lockup.

Richy, only trying to help mate.

its on the bit where you write a status think it has like a green icon saying special offer click that instead of writing a status or photo

you do have to pay and you can change your target reach etc

Is that once a month on average Ian? Ie 12 times a year, or have you ever tightened it more often?
