Not B/Q copy writers and compositors.
This is where you need some expert q and a of course. Was there not a famous one from the states where a bloke was hanging from a harness and supposedly sawing off the limb he was harnessed to back some years ago on one of these tv shows where they show cock ups etc? It would have had to have been a very good harness to save him if it had been for real and not just a posed picture. Brian -- ----- - This newsgroup posting comes to you directly from...

They are not advertising cutting discs, they are advertising grinders (which have adjustable guards) There in nothing wrong with the add, but it seems to have generated a lot of non meaningful waffle. |

They are not advertising cutting discs, they are advertising grinders (which have adjustable guards) There in nothing wrong with the add, but it seems to have generated a lot of non meaningful waffle. While its not "wrong" as such, it does show the grinder with its guard fitted in a non usable position. Its almost like the photographer did not have a disc available to mount and so twisted the guard to make look less like it had something missing. Most of the other grinder photos on the site, have the guard fitted more conventionally and have a disc mounted: http://www.diy.com/departments/mac-a...recs&rrec=true -- Cheers, John. /================================================== ===============\ | Internode Ltd - http://www.internode.co.uk | |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | John Rumm - john(at)internode(dot)co(dot)uk | \================================================= ================/ |
