Title: What do you prefer!!!!
Post by WOLF on Jan 12^th, 2006, 3:17pm

on the job next to where i am working, there are two painter and decorators, (laurel and hardy we call them!!) and what a commotion there was in regards to them earlier!!! they were having a nice sedate conversation about what brand of dec caulk they used,while sorting out an old window,... one stated "everbuild" or some thing like that, but when the skinny one out of the pair said he prefered "albanies"?(dont know if spelt right!) the conversation quickly got heated, with the fatter one calling the skinny one names, as he was using "cr-a-p"! as he put it!, in the end after about 5 mins of shouting, they actually started trading blows!!!! over decoraters filler!!!! the site foreman had to break it up!!!! it was hilarious, all over a choice of filler!!!!!!

i do hope you are not like that Hammy and crew!!!!

By the way, if Albany filler is anything like Albany paint, the fat one's correct, it's crap.
