I'm very nervous but I'm sure I'll be fine as it's really simple stuff and I needed to get it so I can crack the debt busting whip once more.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend... I'm off to work today then going home after to go and sit in a field for 5 days and watch some live music, comedy and cabaret things. Very excited, just stressed about the packing.... hate it!! x

PS Mike I'm watching you, so behave!

I AM!

Mostly.


Nothing creepy about you watching me, is there?

Does anyone know of a site that allows you to report dodgy tradesmen? even in a simple name and shame kinda way.

Hello Mike.
I never got to see this house 'revealed' although I did get to put a bed together and some of the Ikea furniture. I do hope the wheel hasn't fallen off your chair since we left!

I'm in London the first week of August (Wed-Sat) working the Great British Beer Festival. I thought I might get down to see you for a couple of hours early afternoon on the Friday if that is okay. I'll have to check what I've put myself down for at Earl's Court but that seems like the best time.

I have been accepted to do a 1 yr Masters in Housing at Newcastle from September so I'm thinking opportunities to do mad flits down to the south coast may be rare once I'm esconsed in student life and living off my baked beans.

I do hope you've got over the shock and someone has got you some coasters!!!

Nope, Leicester. Name of Stephen Shergold (aka Stephen Bradley). Avoid, classic cowboy builder. See thread above for post. Not allowed to post links.

Thanks Maty

Butti sounds like the sort of job my boys would enjoy (25, 23, 21)!!! and 2 at uni in Leeds doing MA's although the eldest is due to finish September........... hasn't actually told me which year though.
