are b&q buckets orange? would Ethel know?

[cazzz1975]

b&Q also do silver buckets(backets) as well

[whiffy]

It's the cheapest colour to manufacture (green is the most expensive)

[Ethel]

I think the colour would be more visible in all sorts of conditions - muddy, murky, wet and so on.

And we all know what men are like for finding things - they need all the help they can get.

B&Q have a policy of hiring elderly people as store assistants, which is great cos they are full of good advice about plumbing and decoration. Unfortunately you can never get a trolley at B&Q cos the staff are holding on to them to get about with.
