What's the cross-section of views on recommendations of services / goods being posted on here then?
For example - my "new" Victorian house has original wooden beehive doorknobs upstairs, and tacky horrible glass 1960's/70's ones downstairs, half of which quite literally fall off in your hand. I found a supplier who's really gone out of his way to help me and has got me some more wooden beehive knobs which are an almost exact match to the originals, at what I consider to be a reasnoble price and a very short timescale.
Now my personal view is to reward good service and spread the word of a good supplier to others who may be interested - i.e. put a post up giving the context and the suppliers details.
But, there are others who may feel that to be advertising a commercial company - even if I have no connection to the supplier - an action worthy of the offender being shot at dawn, if some postings are anything to go by!
What do you say then? (Light blue paper and retire to a safe distance???)
