I was talking about the skills shortage in Construction, as opposed to a labour shortage, and laid the blame on Henry 8th, it then went from a light hearted bit of prose to a full on debate with me describing the governments response to Leitch as a form of National Service for disaffected school leavers and unemployed adults and also throwing some blame, well a fair bit at education and its lack of understanding of the needs of industry... a few of them were retired teachers... banghead

Half of what you say is bull and the other half's all shit.

Well not quite, but nearly.

You do touch upon one or two valid points but that's about all. :wink:

And you forgot to mention the remeasuring element and general screwing of the client once works start... bbolt
