I'm not surprised giles
anyone who can drink for 24 hrs straight should get a medal
I dont know how you young lads do it???
my auld fella was 65 recently and he feels this is a recession too far for him,he has got through the previous 3 in his working life but now he wants the magners and slippers in the garden
I loved his quote about his trowel (which looks like a witches hat)
"i only use this now for clearing up dog &*^%"

MSH said Days work never killed a man
why take the chance? :;):
I was quoting a job recently and things were going well with the customer
anyway it was looking like a goer and she says "how much can we pay a week?"
one of the big home improvement companies had quoted her £20 a week for 10 years for her drive 
i made my excuses and left
