stump took about half an hour, and was disposed of in the woods to rot down at its leisure!

£40 a day for a labourer is bit lean surely no none works for that little thats below minimum wage even for cash I wouldn't dream of getting out of bed for that.

£40 is a bit lean, i was referring to a prevous poster!

lads are working round here for 40-50 a shift pablo, would be most unhappy to pay that or do it myself but the market has dictated the cost
decent ground workers i know are getting £70 on the cards driving dumpers from 7.30 till 5.30
the same guys were getting £130 a shift a year ago
