Plenty of water breaks. Air con defo needed. To think back on the day we had to put up with just cold air coming out the vents. Was never cold enough though was it. Was useless Lol

Plenty drinks and short days😁 heading out early tomorrow to get finished before it's too hot then off till Monday.  Back home for barbecue and some beers hopefully fall asleep in the hammock and kip outside in the cooler air😁👍

I’d planned it well.

£210 office clean in the early morning, then 4 £25 houses. Was home before 11am.

If everyday was like that I’d be laughing.
