Good on you, the workers.
Some seem to think there's still a stigmata attached to working Bank Holidays.

Was going to say exactly the same, bad weather (snow) affects everyone.

Tbh I agree, I used to put in even crazier hours than I am right now, and I paid the price too as it got me really down. The only reason I'm doing it now it because I only went WFP last Aug and I need to pay for a couple more things - van sign writing and big RO then I'm gonna be doing exactly the same having precious time with the family.

Planned for the day off but ended up finishing off a couple of jobs I didn't get finished yesterday. Worked 7am - 10am and parked the van up until Tuesday. Have a good weekend everyone. :)

I don't work bank hols. Not a rule but a guideline.

Yesterday I broke the guideline due to numptiness the day before and had to do an hours work:- Let me explain - (Must you? Yes.)

Thursday was a numpty day.

1. Dan the Man leaves my Extreme 35 at the back of a house 8 miles back, so we lose 45 minutes retrieving it. (Phew it was there!)

2. Doing the above meant I was in a rush and forgot to do the back of a house in a terrace where I finish off the back a few houses after doing the front. She had paid at the front and rang Good Friday a.m. to tell me I'd forgotten. So I went out and did those three windows - took five minutes work and about ten minutes driving - irritating but hey.

3. Last call on Thursday was a Nursery school and I reversed into a metal post that is there for no good reason except for me to hit my van against! I loosened it a bit and the nursery owner prolly had her beady eye on me pulling in and patronisingly tells me it's my responsibility to put right. (Disgraceful, I didn't even have a chance to think about driving away nonchalantly.  ;D)

So I went back yesterday a.m. before going out to (2.) above and drove a wooden wedge into the ground to keep it upright. I was going to put a bit of cement in the top as a "fillip" but:-

4. The bag of cement I had in a black bin liner turned out to be a gone off bag of plaster. Joy! So I just put a bit of sand in and ground the dirt and weeds back in on top!


It's a game of three halves!

you lot keep working your doing a gran job.each to there own

me myself if i cant afford to have time off on bank hols then something is wrong with my bussiness.

life is to short and that time you lose by working and not spending with the family will not come back



If it hadn't of been for heavy snow here last weekend then I wouldn't have had to work yesterday. Had to have Monday off because it was almost impossible to work! So for me to go yesterday instead of last Monday wasn't a problem!

Ps Theres only 3 S'S in the word business! ;D

Worked Friday and today.

Picked up 1 new custie who would not of seen us except a Saturday .
