    Feckin bloke using a jackhammer on a digger outside across the street a short while ago. Now himself and another chap are banging something with a hammer. Is there a complaints number for this kind of messing? It's blatant builderism..I gotta be up in a few hours. I'd rather not ring the Gardai , well for obvious reasons; they're a hassle to do anything with.

    God damn you beat me to it.

    We should defend our way of life to an extent that any attempt on it is crushed, so that any adversary will never make such an attempt in the future.

    Call the Equality Commission over that Builderism :)

    If it's emergency work, I think it's allowed. If it's not emergency work, I dunno.

    Have you thought about giving them a few bottles of whiskey so they pass out?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,534 ✭✭✭SV


    So much original wit on AH these days, I'm impressed.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,061 ✭✭✭keith16


    Emigrate, then call ghost busters.

    What is builderism?

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,455 ✭✭✭Where To


    In 1972 a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-Team.

    If you can't find them ring Ghostbusters

    Is there a bank across the street? If so, they are probably breaking in.

    haha tried ghostbusters but apparently they were a fictional ghost catching team from a movie made in the 80's, so thats out. Anyone have a number for the A-team? Duncan Stewart haha
    They've stopped now guess I can go back to sleep. It's a back garden in a laneway, not emergency works at all... oh and I think I heard one of em shouting a big **** off to someone....
    Builderism kinda encompasses that attitude...ignorance, quick money, unreasonable, bad temper, bad attitude, wait a sec maybe they ARE the A-team!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    why not just call Batman? Just point your bat signal into the sky.

    every house comes with a bat signal built in, check your attic.

    If you can't get Ghostbusters, dustbusters or noise busters.

    How's about going over and telling them to shut the fcuk up.

    Whoever you'd be calling, would basically be under the same umbrella as the people doing the work. Tell them not to fix the potholes, or if they must then they should do it during peak traffic time as opposed to late on a Friday night.

    I blame health and safety


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,525 ✭✭✭miller50841


    I like the Ghost buters idea :D

    But on a more realistic note maybe there is a gas leak and has to be repaired as if it is left this could happen and op don't think you would have anything to be worried about then....

    I love boards. Noone reads the posts you put up then randomly rant after deciding they know exactly whats going on. Then you get the brigade who give advice in a serious tone as if they really know whats going on. Still though I know you all mean well. Bleedin thicks:eek:

    Aer Lingus, get a flight out of the country, should help you on the road to emigrating.

    Flick your man juice at them. If there working this hour of night its probably essential.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5 j pig


    Call the the BBC and tell them to put you through to "Time Team"... Tell them that you've been digging in your back garden and have uncovered some ancient viking pottery and they need to come quick... Give them your neighbours address and if all goes to plan they should turn up tomorrow with trowels and toothbrushes to continue the "dig"... This way your neighbour gets his hole and you get your beauty sleep!!
