giles, i`m in a bad mood tonight as you can tell. the standard off the workmanship should not change between a £1 house or a £1,000000 house. nice copper work, your heating engineer takes a pride, i`d personally shoot the roofer as that standard of workmanship is sh1t. with every install i ever did when i was on the tools, i`ll put my name to it. do it once, neatly & correctly :D

haha feck all chance of me doing 7 days mate i love my time off, i like to do as little as possible on weekends unless i've got my boy then have a blow out every other saturday night stay upp all night chasing some tail then recover sunday back to work monday all refreshed for another week.

did a 7 day week last week but had two slabs to power float so had to keep checking on there consistency and had to stick a water main connection in for a builder who needed it doing asap. doing an extension for a family with a disabled child so they're rushing it,

like you say life is not a rehersal, i'm lucky i'm 28 i own my house outright and got no debt other than student debt which isn't worth paying off at the moment. i dont need to work myself to death, but like i say a good day sat with feet up reading rd the net about stuff with a few cuppa's and discovery on is not bad by me.

p.s. sorry to hear that rab mate.
