Weekend working

[AliGage]

Anyone on the tools on this miserable saturday morning?

 

[Dougs Third Go]

will be later fella, and what makes it worse for me is that it's for the in-laws, which will equate to it being a freebie a 17m2 bathroom and 4m2 floor

Me too. Having to go and take a bath out that B & Q supplied. I checked all the rim of the bath before I fitted it, cut out for the tap holes, fitted the pop up waste and connected all the services.........peeled off the protective cellophane wrapper from the main body of the bath and lo and behold under a strategically placed piece of tape was a hole!. They have agreed to replace it Monday but insist that the bath is ready for their collection at the same time. Thanks B &Q.

No mate, having breakfast in the hotel.
Thinking of you all who are working

 

[AliGage]

Just pulled up outside my job. 43 minutes early!! Didnt take into account that London traffic returns to something that could be considered normal anywhere else in the country on weekends. Nevermind, newspaper, smokes and an energy drink will pass the time.
I've got approxinately 9sqm of 100x100 in a kitchen i want to try and get fixed today.

Little too close to White Hart Lane for my liking though!!

 

[Dougs Third Go]

I've got a bit of head scratching to do as borders haven't arrived and now not due in till tuesday so I went to tile shop yesterday to get the sample that the outlaws had picked and lo and behold they've chosen starlight quartz mosaics that are quite a bit thicker than field tiles so it's gonna be a case of flat edge chrome trim all round the missing borders

 

[AliGage]

Nightmare when things arent ready when you want them to be. Turned up to this obe yeaterday. Tiles didnt arrive until PM and regardless of that the worktops werent even in.

 

[Ian]

I've just primed about 15m of anhydrite, my goal for today is to lay the tiles on that! I probably had one beer too many last night so it's taking a wee while to get going!

[Lee@emctiles]

Love a rainy day........always busier when it rains.

 

[widler]

Very rarely work weekends, only if its desperado, don't see the point for a extra few quid, rather spend time with family and mates .

 

[Tony73]

just back from work. Work most weekends. Was easy day today as I was only doing templates in four bathrooms, ( vanity tops, cistern tops) :8:

 

[afright]

5-30 am start on a balcony over looking the beach although under cover still open to the weather was cold and raining with rough seas but cracked on until noon then home for a nice hot bath.

Sunday roast at 10.30am? Don't think I could manage one at that time. :lol:

[White Room]

Don't like working weekends but at a push will do Saturday if I have fallen behind....

 

[AliGage]

Well got home about an hour ago. Bit of a drag today. But got the bulk of the cuts round sockets done.

Whole wall is being tiled in 100x100s included off to the left out of picture and 700mm out from the corner (fridge/freezer space)

Anyone wanna play guess the grout colour?

 

[Dougs Third Go]

errr..Grey??

 

[White Room]

Black:yikes:

 

[cam_low]

im going with black too ! grrrr

my Saturday consisted of creating a monster. A local bathroom firm put a shower in many years ago that never worked. The new owners of the apartment want it sorted so I'm putting a wet tray in. turns out upon getting down to it the waste pipe was set to the wrong angle and the bath panel tiles of which are not made any more will have to come off. Ironically the shower walls have not been waterproofed and dot n dabbed yet they used wedi board for the bath panel.

I'll go for red seen as you're near The Emirates

 

[AliGage]

Wish it was JB. Have to keep it quiet around there though being an Arsenal fan. Little too close to white hart lane for my liking!

Mark and Cam are right. Black is the colour of choice. Cant bloody wait!! Lol

 

[cam_low]

I grouted a bathroom two days ago in 114 and I am still washing it from my skin.
