PS when the environmental people came to see me the first thing they threw in was talk of a 5 grand fine
we demolished and filled 2 8 yard skips yesterday between 8 and 4 with hardcore,if that isnt a good days work ,I dont know what is
the way i see it is if you over work people they become less productive
I have worked on the 7.30 -5.30 sites years ago and the skivving that went on was legendary
much rather blast it for 7 1/2 hours

The rules for building and work related jobs are different to home maintenance where the only thing that's required is not to upset your neighbours by causing a nuisance WTF that is supposed to mean
