We're talking about profiteering and since I don't know Eafield I certainly can't lay any claim at his door either way. However, to go back to several cases in point in Rishton, when someone is cruising up to a terraced house with a dodgy boiler and a leaky roof the like of which I've never seen before in an 10 plate Merc, you'll pardon me for thinking that maybe they are raking in quite a fair old stash without necessarily giving the service that is required in return.

Come on, cut him some slack.

Old Steeljack's well and truly bought into the American dream, were the dollar is king, and no one is truly happy until they have gold plated taps in their trailer, and a great big gas guzzler parked outside.

Trashy status symbols are more highly prized on t'otherside of the pond.
