NEVER EVER PICK THE GUYS WITH THE LOWEST QUOTATION

Blogging is a wonderful tool for checking back on the dates and times of things you did or should have done. I checked back to see when the gardeners started work on my garden and it's been a full three weeks now. They seem to work a two day week at my house and sourcing timber, paving stones and cobble stones takes up the other three days. Take a gander at the phenomenal progress of their work.




At 4.00pm yesterday I watched them tidy away their tools.

"What about that with the children" said the chief dick head, eh I mean chief deck guy, pointing at the freshly poured cement dotted here and there under the timber frame. Meaning 'we won't be back tomorrow so don't sue us if you're child's leg accidentally gets set in the quick setting cement'.

Don't worry about the kids, they'll probably have completed the paving and finished off the remaining work on the deck. I'll get them to leave the handrails for you unless you leave it too long before you return. They bore easily.

Since I'm on the subject of workmanship I'm wondering if that Vascular Consultant who tied off the veins in my groin got his wiring right. Last night I took off my sexy white uber support single stocking to have a shower and blood started dribbling out of my nose. I've had nose bleeds before but nothing quite like this. I was waiting for the theme tune to Psycho to start playing.
