[QUOTE=Elwood Blues;5011808]I do have the knowledge, I do probably have(or did have the skills)but if you had bothered reading my response above I have problems getting down to the work due to my legs Oh and my hands are getting a bit stiff as well.

All I am trying to do is make my pension stretch a bit further by putting a bit of work in the way of a decent local tradesman

And perhaps I should have said cheaper rather than cheap.

When I have seen similar threads before usually people have provided a name some helpful advice

I get people who seem to think I am trying to fleece the working and should.think I should be grateful for paying a hundred quid for a 15 to 20 minute job with no parts needed.

That doesn't apply to all of you of course.[/QUOTE

You'll get no sympathy out of me, you used the 'C' word Good luck in finding someone to do your job.
