burnout is a real risk in this game .  i had no family life whatsoever in my burnout phase ,but luckily survived it
 unless your a young buck ,you gotta get a young buck to carry the load . more by luck than judgement iv now 3 youngsters on the payroll  who do the donkeys work ,i still do my quota but i carefully choose my bit, i never do any downstairs work,only ladderwork and mainly i do the highest ladderwork only but less of the ordinary ladderwork if that makes sense

I like how you needed to excuse the £5 job by saying its only 3 windows.

That's what makes me laugh on this site, people will slag you off for doing a £5 job. Be 3 windows or 30 windows and you only charge £5, it has nothing to do with anyone else and you shouldn't feel the need to justify it.

just saves several people going oooooooo only a fiver and me then replying its only 3 windows  ::)roll but yup felt the need to justify it however Mr Plumbjob Bob will be along soon enough to take the mick over a £90 job I did yesterday  ;D

i would never kick a man when his down..............................ahahahahhhhhh £90, 4 hours work, house worth 1.5 million, every 3 months ahahahahahahhhhhh  ahahahahah  i need to stop crying so much :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

we live and learn ;)

Im sure the millionaire windys will be along soon to show me the error of my ways and that they don't have anything less than £100 plus a shop!  Grin



Jarvy,

I am sure some of the millionaire windys as you call them, will clean at similar prices to you, rather than £100 per shop, just my opinion.

What bit dont you get and i'll explain it?

Its not the fact the price is only £5, its the fact that he feels the need to justify it to idiots like you, who only come on here to troll with your six fingers and inbread relations.

Doing a 3 bed semi for £3.50 is still surely not worth it as i first stated.

The difference is i'm not putting the job value or price down and stating that its surely not worth doing 3 bed semis for that price

Why the insults?

Surely it's better to communicate in a positive way?
Just chant..... Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare, Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. It's beats chanting Tory Tory or Labour Labour.

He's an unhappy sort of bloke, so he gets a bit aggressive with his posts sometimes. I find it funny that he types using his forehead.

Yahoo used to have chat sections,one of them was called the fight room!
My mate and I used to go on there (after a few beers normally!) and bait the yanks!
Happy days spent arguing about pointless stuff.....I recon such a section would be a massive hit on this forum!  ;D ;D

Yeah, but it would only be good for a battle of wits. And seeing how Archer and his mate Darren are turning up for a battle, they seem to have come un-armed.  ;D

Cozy,

at WHAT point did I say anything about you ?

Answer = I didn't, so for what reason are you being THE BIG I AM ?

I suppose because you where in the army, you think you are 10 men


People like you give army lads a bad name, simple as that.



I am not even going there with you, simply because you ARE the greatest, because YOU have been the big I am, wonder how many times you where put in your place by proper men that served the country


Infact all I said on the topic, was that I was happy earning £4.00 for a job

Calm down mate. All I did was mention your morris dancing hobby. No need to get upset and stamp your little foot.  ;D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZNfbsG2yIo
