Latest update, powder is at 100%, more than before the lockdown and more than last year at this time. Hopefully the folk buying it up and selling it for profit get the just desserts and you lot can get back to work.
What....... f**k that, I never tell customers what I’m getting gear at geez. Shhh don’t tell anyone but their all getting charged £15 a bag at the minute!
Wickes in Braintree have limited it to five bags per person and only to regular tradecard holders. Seems reasonable enough if you're doing small domestic works.
I told her to be smug,as she thought price was high because I was charging alot for materials and passing cost onto her,I enjoyed telling her
Good it’s trade only, should be 10 at least though mate. My local b&q’s have been selling as much as you want to any Tom, dick & Harry, It’s disgusting!
Disgusting.
5 bags is s**t , plasterers use 10 a day
f**k knows, seems to be word of the day.
f**k that if I had to use 10 bags in one day I'll be on the chiropractors table now
Done it back in my youth,you soon see the light when you get to a certain stage in your life..aslong as I can work 2 days a week,3 days max at a push I'm happy or and aslong as I'm still fit and able enough to give the old dear doggy every1s happy my end,mrs wouldn't have me work 5 days a week
6 days graft!! Not a chance.im mortgage fee,got a holiday home in portugal and a caravan at seaside in a park..my life at chasing money is long gone thank the heavens
Ones that cant price jobs do .
Oh is that so , must be failing for the last thirty years
I work 6 days a week , have done for 35 years ,
Never too old to realise lifes mistakes mate, best realise now, rather than in the nursing home.
The majority of jobs I get are word of mouth,so say a bedroom etc il do it over 2 days,say a living room il stretch to 3 days,the jobs I do ain't guna warrant a 6 day job.i dont work for builders anymore so I tell the people the way it's going to go b4 tools come out.im more doing it for staying active than 4 the pound notes
Good for you,blue Peter badge is on route
Scratch that ,plasterers dont make it too the nursing home !!!!Never too old to realise lifes mistakes mate, best realise now, rather than in the nursing home.
If your wife lets you , I like working, like being busy ,
My uncles 77 , still workingNever too old to realise lifes mistakes mate, best realise now, rather than in the nursing home.
I'd rather be busy with the mrs than with some sweaty trowel in my hand
Yet you’re on here . Only teasing ,
Carlite, I’m thinking of ordering another my self
What finish do you prefer using mate
It's a funny one,I phased builders out 5 years ago..worked 4 a ton of them over years could not think of anything worse now,I'm free,to do what I want,any old time...its liberating when you do it.but that being said my past investments have allowed me to be in this situation
I like carlite now , it finishes nicely , the customers like it
