I don't work bank hols. Not a rule but a guideline.
Yesterday I broke the guideline due to numptiness the day before and had to do an hours work:- Let me explain - (Must you? Yes.)
Thursday was a numpty day.
1. Dan the Man leaves my Extreme 35 at the back of a house 8 miles back, so we lose 45 minutes retrieving it. (Phew it was there!)
2. Doing the above meant I was in a rush and forgot to do the back of a house in a terrace where I finish off the back a few houses after doing the front. She had paid at the front and rang Good Friday a.m. to tell me I'd forgotten. So I went out and did those three windows - took five minutes work and about ten minutes driving - irritating but hey.
3. Last call on Thursday was a Nursery school and I reversed into a metal post that is there for no good reason except for me to hit my van against! I loosened it a bit and the nursery owner prolly had her beady eye on me pulling in and patronisingly tells me it's my responsibility to put right. (Disgraceful, I didn't even have a chance to think about driving away nonchalantly.
)
So I went back yesterday a.m. before going out to (2.) above and drove a wooden wedge into the ground to keep it upright. I was going to put a bit of cement in the top as a "fillip" but:-
4. The bag of cement I had in a black bin liner turned out to be a gone off bag of plaster. Joy! So I just put a bit of sand in and ground the dirt and weeds back in on top!
