    I've been really busy for a while but I hadn't got anything booked for next week. Got a phone call this afternoon asking if I could do a 200m2 car showroom next week...... Yes please!!

    I'm only in myself, day and night shifts this week for us.
    Luckily for me i'v never been busier, big mansion extension started too on days- in it I have 2 ensuites(112m2), beautiful curved marble hallway with double curved borders.
    Rising from the hallway i have a beautiful marble staircase to fit (factory made).
    Then marble wine cellar and kitchen/ pantry in marble too.
    No wonder i'm working nights doing other jobs, lol.

    I'm doing 7 days a week trying to keep up! (mind you there's no way I could do 12sqm stuck, left for 2 hours then grouted, 3 hours all in, so respect Tom ).

    I'm booking work for December now, so happy days here

    I'm only in again from my night work this week, one more push tomorrow night and I'll have the 42m2 down and grouted hopefully.
    I don't like splitting jobs like this, I have tools on two jobs too.
    Up at 6.30 in morning again for an hours drive to my day one! Phew.

    Weeks holiday next week, first since may, then have 70 plots with loads of extras, mostly floors (my poor knees), and my little extras which should take me nicely towards christmas (and my skiing), unless like last year they drop a load of extras plots and keep me working like crazy till last minute
