As the boss says "That material belongs to me untill they pay for it, and i can do what i like with it"
i think you will find in civil law stuarty in england that isnt the case,
my mate fitted a load of hardwood windows for some russian geezer,who then turned round and said " i dit not ask for any vindows" my pal wanted to unfit them but he would have been liable for criminal damage according to the old bill

in the recession i was working for a bloke who bumped me for a few quid. i drove to his house with my two children. i knocked on the door and when his wife opened the door i just walked in with the kids ( never met the lady till then) i sat my kids in the kitchen and started putting food on the table for them. she asked who i was and what i was doing. i told her that her husband owed me money and i was broke so couldnt afford to feed my family. she was on the phone to her old man and gave him such a bollocking. she paid me my money with extra for the kids and so apolegetic on his behalf. desparate times, desparate measures. i wouldnt of cared if she had called the police.
bang on sean,to be honest if someone knocked me for a serious amount, i would have it with them ,end of story
we are going out doing our bollox every day,and it just isn't right not to pay someone.
did a shed base for my brother in law this morning ,when i got there he had had the gardner dig up all the lovely hard ground and turn it over nice and soft
we got there at 8 and the readymix was coming at 9,why oh why do ppl not ask before they pull these stunts
you have to laugh or you would cry
still out on the razzle tonight

another time a firm called shotcrete bumped me, recession again. they had finished on site except for some future snagging. after a lot of phone calls, my wife tried. the boss told her to feck off. that did it. acouple of months went by ( i was still on site for another firm) and guess who turned up at 7.00 in the morning to do some snag work to get the retention cheque? i dragged him out of the van and smacked him up then got his wallet...empty. i was in his van smashing all his tools and trying to force his briefcase open, i was like a man demented. the site agent asked what the craic was and when i explained he told him to leave and not to return till he paid me. a few days later a cheque in the post :laugh: like you LLL i would always get what i have slaved my balls off for by any means. :;):
