No matter how many times I tell them I'm not them, and my e-mail address isn't their e-mail address, Brennan Fencing keeps sending me their internal bid e-mails.  Got three more today:

Hi Michael,

I had hoped to get up to you before the Ploughing as discussed at the Tullamore Show and do up a press releaase or two for you to send out to uk publications but never had a chance. Was at Killin Hill two weeks ago but ran out of time to hop over to you.

Below are email address for the machinery guys in most of the UK publications. It would be a good idea to email them to let them know that you will have two? new machines (As per Tullamore) & maybe invite them onto your stand for a chat (I'm sure you will have a lot to tell them).

I'll see you there and I still need to cover your new machines in detail for the Farmers Journal now that I've moved over.

Regards, Bruce.

9/24/2012 - I'm not in the fencing business.

However, someone thinks I am them, and sent me this nice e-mail about one of their customers.  Really, you don't know your own e-mail address?  Maybe try sobering up before reading your e-mail next time.  Yeah, that was an Irish insult.

5/29/2010 - Even other Brennans are confused about me...

Looks like I'm into manual labor in Ireland. Fortunately where I live we have lots of guys named Manuel to do our labor, and I'm a nice guy, so I offered them some help:

Ok, I'm too busy to do much with this estimate, but I'll at least give you a plan. No charge.

On Monday, go down to Home Depot, and order everything on the list, schedule it for delivery on Thursday.

Spend Friday doing inventory, make sure it is all there.

On Saturday, go to Home Depot, rent an auger to drill the post holes. Go out to the parking lot and look for the Mexicans waiting for work. Hire six of them, should cost you about $300-500 for the day to get six of them. Put them to work in 2 man crews. Crew 1 measures for the post holes and marks them. Crew 2 augers the holes. Crew 3 sets the posts in the holes and cements them in, plumbs and levels.

On Sunday, go back to Home Depot, I'd expect you will need 16-20 Mexicans to finish your fence. Put them in crews of 3, alternating crews that nail supports and crews that nail pickets. This will cost you about $900-1500 for the day, and your fence will be done.
