In this case it was Ofsted telling me how good I am. You will be telling us how well off you are in a minute. It seems I would be considerably richer if I were an unskilled handyman. I wouldn't know, I'm a highly skilled handyman. But you would pay considerably less tax. The taxman pays me! |

You will be telling us how well off you are in a minute. It seems I would be considerably richer if I were an unskilled handyman. There you go again - you have absolutely no idea of any qualification as a handyman - or indeed in any other matter - that anyone here has; nor do you have any idea of anyone's financial well-being - unless it is the Porker, you, or Simple Simon who thinks that such things are important to others. They aren't; however, I can see that you like to make a **** of yourself. Do you ever wonder if people who know you in the real world look you up - see what sort of things you say in public? I wonder why so many of the psycholists here have to tell us how much they have spent on this thing or that thing. I think it must be some sort of insecurity. |

However, we should be able to find the money to take the tandem from Portsmouth to Santander and touring northern Spain for a week or two. Our main holiday this year was over Christmas to our penthouse apartment on the South China Sea. However, if we manage to sell the smaller apartment in Sanya, we will be flush with cash again. I am sorry Are you? Really!? I can't recall what I said now - as you have snipped it. Did I say : "I am sorry - do you mind if I call you a ****?" I may well have said that. |

You may be hopelessly incapable of reading and interpreting pictures, but I expect that most able-minded adults find it particularly easy to read Ikea instructions. It is a good thing that Ikea uses pictures instead of written instructions otherwise Bodge Job would be incapable of assembing those self collapsing sideboards. -- Simon Mason |

I am delighted that Dave is so rich, and it is a well deserved wealth - even if his Ikea cabinet assembly is somewhat lacking due to his difficulty reading the instructions.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - I also pay people to do boring jobs such as putting up wallpaper that I could do myself but can't be bothered to. And, no doubt, you'd do a much better job of it too. I fully understand. I'd much rather go for a cycle ride and pay others do the boring jobs. Yes - I can turn my hand to most things. Electrics, car maintenance, plumbing, decorating, gardening and so on, but I would rather pay other people to do these things so I have more time to enjoy myself. -- Simon Mason |

In Sanya we have the luxury of being able to go from hot tub to the 25m swimming pool, to the sea at will. Few Chinese swim, so we have the sea and pool more or less to ourselves. The hot tub, however, is very popular. I have looked at the possibility of getting a small Turkish bath and the price does not seem to be that high, so I might end up getting one fitted my workshop. -- Simon Mason |
