    Default All or nothing

    Aint it great, one minute you are struggling to find work the next you dont know which way to turn 1st.
    I am in the middle of a new build house, Bathoom walls,floors. travertine hallway and kitchen. guest flat shower walls and floors in travertine too.
    Next week i am wanted in Swansea for the shopfitters, entrance way and stall risers etc, then i the want the same in Croydon.
    I have a 5 school toilet refurbs to start next week (same school).
    A student house needs the bathroom tiling for a mate next weekend.
    Also i am block laying a patio in Saltaire, Bradford for another mate this weekend.
    Tomorrow i have to tile a big conservatory in Pershore....must be done in a day.
    I know i could get some help but its all priced for me and there is no money for extra labour.
    So if i manage it all will someone TELL ME TO TAKE A HOLIDAY when its over?

    Im in the same boat SR, just got a call to start a new semi, bathroom, ensuite, downstairs loo and kitchen to do. Needs done next week. Im already flat out so im taking my nephew along. Good practice for him as he is starting as a plumbing apprentice in Sept. I find i can aleast up my productivity by 50% having a gofor, especially on floors $$$

    Good lad Joe,
    Im busy but not that busy. The other house im doing next week has no mobile reception so that will slow the calls up a bit.
