Called at first job this morning. Car in driveway, dog in hall but no reply. Called her mobile 3 times inside 30 mins and on the 4th left a message stating that we had called but no one there. Told her that as she hadn't cancelled I would expect her call to re-book otherwise I would call her this afternoon to re-book.

These people just p me off. hadn't even the common decency to cancel or (as yet) even return my call.

Surely we must have some legal rights or is the law solely on the customers' side.

First job of the year under my belt.

Derek, sorry to hear your Mrs is still poorly, maybe you can do some marketing inbetween looking after your daughter.

Oops sorry Derek,

Don't you want a girl?

[derek west]

no mike.
i'd be a nightmare when she got to dating age, vetting evry fella she brought home, and scaring them off if i didn't approve. with lads its easy.
anyway, i was gonna form a boy band with me as manager, 4's enough for that.

I have a daughter aged 11, have already told her that I pity her first boyfriend, I shall conveniently be sharpening my rusty divers knife when he first walks in

Had a council meeting this morning for their commercial dept but this is for the Pigeon mess and other such delights.

First job of the year tomorrow morning.

If the phone isn't ringing take a shower, drive around without your bluetooth, or stand next to your machine so you can't hear the phone, this is when I get nearly all my calls.

[derek west]

theres another one mike, but she's not well at the mo so can't do that

12 Jobs booked now. slightly up on last year, value wise as well.

I've always found the best way to start the year is plan any
re-decorating jobs for January, i can then guarantee not having
the time to do them.
