A friend of mine has just had a golf lesson that cost him ÂŁ300 for 4 hours. The vast majority of that time was spent chatting.
Golf lessons , tennis lessons , personal fitness training etc the biggest racket going

my wife used to pay ÂŁ110 for a personal fitness trainer for 2 hour session to come to our house

they literally spent the first hour chatting about their week
 
Ya tells 'em, but they don't listen!
I think that's all part of the modern generation... I know we were probably the same when we were youngsters, but not to the extent of the 'entitled' youth of today. I seem to remember that we were taught to respect experience and the elderly... now, all older people are not 'woke' enough to be listened to...
 
Second wet pants text us yesterday evening asking if his mate could pop round today to quote for the job

I asked why ? cant you give us your quote first , he never replied

seems odd really , perhaps too busy and just too small a job I’m guessing
 
So second wet pants + his carpenter buddy wanted nearly ÂŁ3000 to fit a loo , sink and do a bit of flooring

think I will be using first wet pants

Scary amount of money. Be interesting to see how long it takes him.
 
How big is this bathroom, 3 grand sounds a bit excessive
Tiny , 2m x 2m usable floor space

bath is staying put, wife ordered a new side board type toilet / sink vanity she wants plumber in and new flooring

I think ÂŁ3000 for 2 days Labour is too steep even for my area as we are suppling the actual flooring as well
 
If the two that turn up,are Roger Bisby,and Robin Clevett......it's a bargain....i'd pay ?
