Why is it that when you price to put something right for someone, they immediatley reckon it should be loads cheaper than they originally paid. No one seems to grasp the fact that you've usually got to rip it up and start again, I really hate the look of self pity you always get, as if your supposed to sort their problems for free or as near as. Have you ever had the one were a quote you did comes back after a few months and says the company they went with f@#*%d up and can you sort it..I love that!! :p

fired up and leanmixed the blocks yesterday
then slashed up the wall today,800 bricks done by 1
would have finished the main wall but jewsons sent out a menagerie of class bs instead of the class As i asked for
the usual craic they were hidden under the cement
block paving is gonna look tatty against the new wall but my remit is to leave it alone
great day for laying bricks today,overcast and not too cold,plus for some reason wobbly got the muck just right?
