    You're untrained in gas appliances I believe. Any chance you can fix our boiler?

    I can help Jay. I'm not qualified, but I know my stuff. The technical term for a 'boiler' is a kettle.

    £20 and I'll sort it for you.. plus travel expenses

    Aye

    You're not qualified though are you? That wouldn't be any good.

    Your area of expertise is pharmaceutical marketing isn't it?

    In which case I'd like you to take a look at my guitar. One of the pick-ups isn't working.

    I've played a guitar

    So I think that makes me better then Slash or something. So I don't come cheap.

    However, I reckon a few drops of VitalEyes on it will sort your problem.

    That's free advice btw. Maybe you could organise my mortgage for me in return. You live in a house don't you?

    I do live in a house

    But I'm afraid I don't own it (before anyone gets any ideas) so maybe I'm not the right person to offer advice. Oh go on then, if I must.

    Buy a reight lovely house and put some reight nice stuff in it. Hope this helps.

    That's not strictly mortgage advice Jay

    If I wanted an interior designer I would have asked someone else with some kind of abtract experience...i dunno, like gardening or something and it would have been funny...guaranteed.

    No your limits Jay. First rule of something that is.

    Sorry, I thought I knew what a mortgage was

    Maybe it is better to use qualified people after all. Who would have thunk it.

    RE: Sorry, I thought I knew what a mortgage was

    This should be come a sticky thread.

    It's nice and educational and you've closed it with a pleasant moral at the end.

    Maybe you should publish it as a short story?

    This is like an episode of Diffr'nt Strokes or The Golden Girls. Very gentle humour and a lesson to be learnt to finish with.

    More please.

    'Vital- Eyes' Pah.

    I'm not one of those 'lol' posting types. Which obviously makes me better.

    but well done, if I had food on hand I would of dispatched it around the office in your honour.
