I can answer this before the day has even ended. Bad day, so far, won't get any better, air-con packed up and our office is under a tin roof, got a puncture on the way to work, forgot my lunch, burnt a hole in my shirt during my *** break and the QC department at BCT is either non-existent or run by completely blind fcukin' morons!

One Day

Finishing off some skirting tiles to cover lead flashing on a roof terrace I tiled last year.
Started this morning in full sun, by 2pm I was done for.
The terrace is surrounded by glass so it was like working on the sun.
Sweat was dropping off my head and hitting the tiles and pretty much boiling away in a few seconds. Banging heat-headache but I'm off to bed...

I like it hot but...

Great day yesterday, the client I'm tiling a pool for informs me that whilst watering his garden he managed to pull the hosepipe which knocked the metal cased socket set (which he'd used for removing the pool light and left on the coping) into the pool chipping/breaking a load of tiles...

Spent the day carrying the bags around shops, buying my lovely wife lots of prezzies as it's her birthday next month ( she is going to be a bullseye shhhhh!) I seemingly bought her 2 really nice cards with exquisite words, apparently clothes and seemingly I am so thoughtful that I even knew she would like the clothes in 2 sizes AND 4 different colours!!!

IMG_0505.JPG IMG_0507.JPG IMG_0509.JPG IMG_0511.JPG Skint and penniless! Used all my money on grout for these tiles!! How many 5kgs bags of Bal microban gunmetal do you reckon it took to do the shower enclosure? 2.8m x 0.9m x two walls? The splashback took a 5kg bag of Mapei ultra mud!
