It's not actually Carling in those glasses?

I need to be able to clean off any squeeze-out with water. Also, Gorilla Glue only has a working time of about 15 minutes. That's way to short for complicated glue-ups.

I was taught to allow 'squeeze-out' of Cascamite to dry then chisel the excess off by the Cabinetmaker who was my chief lecturer.

Same thing isn't it?

Yep.

I had a rather interesting call today with some head hunters.

But really.... Me, in Qatar, with my reputation?!?

Ah yes, Qatar, the land of openness and tolerance

I have to admit that it's such a long time since I drank either as draft and even longer since I drank Carling at all that I'm not able to say. I did have some cans of San Miguel fairly recently and they had a slightly tacky, almost resinous aftertaste, something that I'd never associated with the insipidness of Carling.

The package was tempting (ooh err missus) though. A very nice salary, and accommodation/travel/medical care/car provided. But it was only tempting for a millisecond...

Bonkers

Insipid gas is how I would describe it but I am not a larger connoisseur the all.

Ooh, I love parkin! The treaclier and gingerier the better.

Are these the same twunts that cough and splutter at work so that everyone gets their germs.

No, they are the ones who just can't be bothered to do a days work.

I visited three hardware shops today and none were able to sell me Linseed oil

Chiselling it off is blooming tedious, especially in corners. It's far easier to have a bucket of water and a washing up sponge to hand and deal with it when it's still liquid. That's my preference anyway. Use masking tape to protect the workpiece adjacent to the glue line too.
