    I think these trade days are a fantastic idea, especially when you get to meet fellow TF members, I have not met a bad one yet.

    I hope I get the chance to meet many more.

    Just a pity they don't come up to sunny Scotland, as there are a lot of tilers up here......

    they did do a tour but we just do not commit to doing it so i think they got fed up with people saying they will go and pulling out

    Mapei really do back us little fellas up with product training etc etc

    so next time you go to buy some gear and someone is a couple of quid cheaper Take a minute and think ?

    to be honest 19 booked in and only 6 turn up it is heartbreaking for the Mapei boys and girls who try so hard and put on a good day for FREE ffs

    we all have times when we cant make it that is life but the day they put on is worth the effort and it shows how much Mapei will back the little guy if you need it

    Maybe they should charge a fully refundable deposit Just a thought
