Have got 2 days work booked in the diary this week and 2 the following week then 1 job in march nothing more due to some set backs and cancellations in the old diary. I am not too fussed as long as make £300 a week keeps the ship a float.

Had a cancellation, A months work dry linning plastering and tiling because I could'nt get there quick enough, Heard those almighty word's "eastern europeans" where doing it, Still ticking over, not that fussed.

I'm ticking over - just.
I've been without a break since I started last year so I guess it had to happen eventually. Probably give me time now to sort out my van and website and half a dozen other promotional things I never got round to doing.

I had some nice big, quality jobs lined up for Feb but I've now had 3 call me to delay a month or two - with the "skint after Xmas" excuse.

Had I turned work away for these I'd me annoyed - as it is - I didn't.

(anyone else getting diddly squat via their respective suppliers?)

Made the error to commit to a new and untried contact. Worked like a s,o,b before christmas with the promise of a full january. Jan comes, he dissappears, rookie error i suppose, I turned down a load of work, now i'm sat at home, should be earning.

Just starting to pick up now. Nothing for Jan, but that doesn't surprise me. Hope it stays busy all year.
