    Default new year hopefully a better one than the last

    Hi. No work today, snowed in. Got "A" job to price this week and that is it. Really hope work will pick up sooner rather than later. The last 3/4 months last year were a disaster. A company my buisness worked for went bust on us and took us for 19k. Nightmare. money running out, wage cut to help keep buisness going. Starting to worry. Just need a couple of decent leads to kick start it. Heres hoping

    last year was rather "up" and "down" for me,really struggled at the start then the phone went mad the second 1/2 of the year,starting this year slowly but seem to be ticking over!

    hope things pick up the way it was in 2008!

    Was working most of last year, but not earning the sort of money I need to...... so yes, here's to 2010 picking up!
    Yesterday I phoned a few tilers I know to see if I could pick up a bit of work - they are all quiet, not a good start!

    I have a bit of work in the pipe-line, but not breaking any records. It would help if this bloody snow would shift Hope you all pick up soon.
