Yes, i did see it Roy,, i looked for it earlier to see if anything had been added to yours and RichC's comments. I know there was an advert in the post, which Rich commented on, but i don't know why a lot of the comment was deleted, unless it got nasty during the afternoon. I think it was only part of the post that was deleted. Strraaange

No nastiness, not that I saw anyway; it was all very amicablebut but perhaps he got ****ed cos I sussed him & I didn't see all he said about me but the "Mods" finally spotted it He is obviously the owner/director/or whatever, advertising his DIY courses of which plastering is just one. I sussed it straight away (is that sad or what ) but he didn’t even register with a different name to his website home page, just gave himself away. I didn’t “report” cos I wanted to give more of you guys the opportunity to chip in after you'd finished your day of toil (I'm not doing anything till next week ); it could have been amusing Personally I’ve no problem with 4 day "wonder courses" as a start, I didn’t do one but it may have benefitted me initially if I had. Neither do I have a problem with him trying to flog them, hey it’s business .
What I objected to was he was making it sound so misleadingly easy & we all know it isn’t! This will lead to disappointment for many of his students & they ultimately will have wasted their "hard earned" but you can’t blame him for trying I suppose, he must be feeling it the same as everyone else.

Ah,, so that was it. I did see some of the stuff he was writing, and even alerted the mods to his advert, which you also commented on Rich. He was probably trying to drum up business. We come on here day after day, year on year, just to try and help someone/anybody out,, then on comes someone like that guy, web link and all, and gives a few comments, and says how easy skimming is, (so he says, as a diyer)
We know that,, but to someone who's learning,, it's not that easy without plenty of practice.
Do you all remember the You Tube video posted on here a few weeks ago, of the DIY plastering expert who didn't know his hawk from a float,, and then he showed people how "easy" it was to put a plaster skim coat onto a wall??? ,, nuff said.
