My wife has the sandwich box at the ready!

Few years back now but..... I worked on the Thursday before  Good Friday and got a right *ollocking off an older customer for working the day before!
At the same time she was ticking me off she accepted a parcel from the postman and thanked him!

I've never closed for Easter, I'm not religious and I don't work for a bank. Nobody has ever mentioned it in 20+ years.

I'm hoping to be closed on 30/04 and 03/05 just after the pubs reopen up here.

I'm working...

Currently putting out about 3.5k leaflets per month, so i'm overloaded with new enquiries.

I want to try and stay on top of them.

Phew, got out of that one!
Emailed a few and most said leave it until after Easter.
Got so much work coming in which is good, summer this year will be manic, but just keep going and it will all get done.
Happy Easter everyone.

No!(unfortunately!)😅......I clean it every year about this time ready for spring and summer......to be fair shes already done the whole driveway this week already(which is big enough to fit 4 vehicles on)so the decking will only take a few hours...🙂👍
