I need some photies of flag laying for a commercial client as soon as poss.

I know: wrong time of year, but we waited and waited and waited last autumn for it to stop raining long enough to get the images required, and it just never happened.

Ideally, concrete riven-effect/reproduction flags being laid to a driveway or patio, but if that's not possible, we can use Injun sandstone/limestone. I need a handful of shots showing exciting action shots such as bed prep, buttering, clonking with a maul, checking with a level, pointing of some form, sloping off early for a pint on the way home....that sort of thing.

This work is for a medium-sized supplier based in Southern Eng-er-land who is looking to produce a basic 'How To..." for their products. However, due to time limits, I'd rather photograph/video summat in Northern England.

If you have such a job lined-up for the next month or so, can you let me know? I'll bring beer, if necessary!

And you tell me now?? Bloody hell, Giles!

I'm facing a 300-mil round trip over to the Atlantic coast of Welsh Wales at the end of the month to get a set of photies and you are on my doorstep all the time!

Anyone else got potentiually suitable jobs they never thought to mention?
