His breadth of knowledge is fabulous and I cannot help reading his posts even when the subject being discussed is irrelevant to me. Surely I'm not the only Pigletjohn groupie!

He's fab and very knowledgeable.

Also quite modest and have never seen him succumb to flirting - Mrs PigletJohn is a lucky woman!

Ooh yay a PigletJohn fan club live web chat Grin

Scuttlebug · 29/10/2013 08:36

Another fan here for sure. I posted up a question about my immersion heater and was thrilled when PJ posted up. I felt like one of the chosen ones...! Plus the advice and links he gave me meant I was much better informed to deal with the shite plumber who tried to overcharge me. I salute you Piglet John with my spanner!

Stand back ladies I am PigletJohns number one fan. Grin.

I get excited whenever I see a plumbing/DIY type thread as I wait for PigletJohn to appear.....and he does appear, like a night in shining armour.

I sometimes offer advice on DIY but I usually add that the best thing to do is to wait and see what PigletJohn would do.

OP YANBU

Piglet John's advice on tumble driers usually goes something like this-'use one!'Grin

I'm convinced PJ is actually Aggie from How Clean is your House?Wink

You are brilliant. Was just thinking this yesterday.

Fluffycloudland77 · 29/10/2013 10:17

You all realise somewhere piglet johns OH/Dw is saying "of course they all think you're marvellous they don't have to live with you"

MrsBennetsEldest · 29/10/2013 11:17

YesterdayI, there is a queue here, I'm sorry but you can't pop up mid thread and tell us to stand back, you will just have to wait your turn love ;)

What a brilliant thread!!! We should definitely ask MNHQ for a [pint]

Coveredinweetabix · 29/10/2013 14:48

Now moved onto to thinking about other MNers I really appreciate for their advice (rather than just their humour) and had a thought - think how perfect PigletJohn & FlyLady's house would be?!!

MrsBennetsEldest · 29/10/2013 14:54

Nooooooo...Pigletjohn cannot be married to Flylady.....in my mind he is happily single having never met the right one. Pigletjohns house is probably perfect with masses of books in a study with an open fire, a wing backed leather armchair and a Labrador.

Give over, Mrs Bennet, you're making him sound like a confirmed bachelor - that simply will not do!

Jux · 29/10/2013 15:32

PJ's wife is the Power Behind the Throne. She is the One Who Knows All, and he merely passes information on.....

(Only joking. But she knows all about other stuff.)

YesterdayI · 29/10/2013 16:34

MrsBennetsEldest Grin I am a long time PigletJohn stalker AND I will be first in the queue.

MrsBennetsEldest · 29/10/2013 17:14

Yesterday1, I wasn't going to say anything but Pigletjohn is very skilled at everything ;)
Anyone know the porcine gestation period..lol

I think the poster who suggested a MN Academy DIY course by PigletJohn was on to something. I would totally sign up for it.

He's very elusive about his personal details though, maybe he wants to stay anonymous.

bruffin · 29/10/2013 17:33

He is brilliant on the vaccinations board as well. Straight to the bones of the matter and taking no nonsense from anyone.
For some reason never clicked he was a "he" though Blush

PigletJohn · 29/10/2013 18:02

Yep.
