Has anyone bought Dave Chaplin's "Contractor's Handbook"?
<removed>
£35 well spent or not?

My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think. -
Looking at the index it appears to be just accumulated knowledge of nearly everything discussed on here to be honest. I can't really see what a regular poster on these forums such as yourself would learn from this apart from all the information being offered in a single concise format instead of having to diseminate it out of all the arguing on here.
I personally also have a phobia of these 'buy this book' type websites. To me it markets it on a par of 'get rich on ebay' and 'i made a million from pay per click' so its a no no for me straight away.
I guess for some of the newbies here could be worth it but not for you likes of yourself.'CUK forum personality of 2011 - Winner - Yes really!!!!

Is this in book-format or a PDF?
You could try and find it on a torrent...then review and buy

...actually if they've bought they still won't know if it's any good as the web site states the first batchs are not shipped until the 15th Dec.
But then again there are some reviews on Amazon, strange.

I preferred his prequel:
"How to fall off a log"
Very informative it was.Comment

Well, this is fun.
I keep coming across posts I did last night when I was pissed out of my head.

What absolute sh!te. Can't begin to imagine why anyone would buy it. The simple fact that anyone would think about buying it would instantly put me off hiring them as a contractor!Public Service Posting by the BBC - Bloggs Bulls**t Corp.
