Well after working about three weeks straight, including Saturdays, we're finally on top of all our work, we're knackered (I work with Wor Lass  ) and we're off for a haircut, breakfast and a long walk with the dog.

It's great just to wake up, no problems, and take a sneaky day off work. 

I see there's plenty of other skivers on the forum right now; just think of all those poor guys chained to their desks in some sweaty office somewhere working with a bunch of people they don't like. 

How lucky are we?

Classic! I had a half day today which culminated this evening in taking a guide dog for a walk with Mrs. Gold and littlest Gold.

Instructions:- "Oh this dog is so well behaved - when you get to the Daisy Field give her one of her biscuits and say "run Joan run" and let her go for ten minutes, call her back and give her another biscuit as a reward."

Off we go, cross the busy A4 Portway and go into said Daisy Field. Taking off her lead it's "Run Joan run!" we all shout and she belts off, out the gate straight across the road (The A4) to beeping of horns, me and Mrs and littlest pegging after her. Me telling littlest to be careful on the road, her getting all tearful and us having visions of telling the poor old blind guy that we've trashed his beloved mutt! 

Fortunately another chap sees what's going off and stops her and brings her back to us.

Sheeesh!

Gold,

Getting a guide dog for the blind killed, although not nice, would've been funny in a sick kind of way.  Can you imagine breaking the news of that to the blind guy? 

Well, we've had a brilliant day; I can't tell you what we got upto this afternoon; but it was fun! 

Back to work tomorrow!

Tosh... The chained to a desk working with people you hate is what I think when I'm having a bad day... Cheers me u no end
 
Gold... One of my new customers has an ex guide dog. Apparently he got sick of it, stopped doing his job and injured his owner.


All I'm getting off at the moment is a sunday....

Saturdays for me till I catch up with the round builder.

1.   I thought of nothing else all yesterday evening!

2.   Afternoon delight Tosh? 

3.   Just off out myself!

Taking a day off too. Just about cleared the winter losses. Back on track. Nice feeling to be the boss sometimes.

[Tom White]

I fancy another day off.   

But I've got a new clean booked in followed by quoting for two other new cleans. 

[Dave Willis]

Half a day today I think. Sod 'em all 

Might wander out in a couple of hours for some slow motion cleaning. Loverly.
