wished i lived back near london again

[robrado974]

i moved to devon around 7 years ago because it was getting so rough where we were . just didnt want the kids growin up in reading . we used to work in the smoke all the time and earnt some good dough .I was talkin to me mate the other day who was sayin all the boys are on two n a half a day at the mo!. when i told them i was on £3.75 a meter they said your avin a laugh aint ya !. truth is i aint on that at the mo , its just bits n bobs comin in , hardly worth gettin out of bed for really . cant wait till things start to pick up again . not to much to ask for some good dough to be earnt considering its one of the hardest buildin trades goin.

london work is fecked mate i do some site stuff for a firm and thier offering 1.75 a meter fit only and 8 a meter supply and fit float and set.
private work is the way to go at the moment in my opinion, and reading your posts you could be getting 240 a day if you knocked out 2 of them ceilins at 120 you said about.:RpS_cool:
