Was in B&Q the other day. (Found what I wanted
elsewhere at half the price of B&Q) Ripoff merchants.

But I noticed there was no-one in there young. They were all old gits.

Not true of our equivalent.

Does no-one young do any DIY these days?

I know a couple that do. Pretty decent extension to their house in fact.

And restoring old cars too.

(Is there anyone young on this newsgroup come to that?)

Haven't noticed anyone under about 40 but that isn't
that surprising given that few of the kids have even
heard of usenet. Plenty on facebook into DIY tho.
