Someone phoned me yesterday pleading for me to fix a leak in the bathroom before Christmas, I said OK I'll call late morning/early afternoon, So I called at 11.30, nobody in, I dropped a card in and went home, At 1.30 she rings me, sorry i had to go out, please can you call back, No way, I've parked up now and not moving again unless its for £200, Is that to fix the leak, she asked,,No, thats to make a return visit, cash on arrival and depending on whats leaking could be a lot more, she said, I'll ask my partner when he gets in, I don't expect she'll phone back, smiley-finger005

Can't fault ya Thomas, traffic's a bloody nightmare today. Finished work at three and set off home. The journey to work took me ten minutes this morning. Returning took me half an hour.  |

Yea I'm gonna send her an invoice for call out, £50, If she won't pay, I'll increase by £10 per month for admin and when it becomes worth chasing, I'll sent a team from ' can't pay, we'll take it away',,,,now thats the Christmas spirit,, I probably won't though, I'm far too soft to be a hard nosed business tychoon,  |
