Sorry to hear of your accident.
I have been moaning to all and sundry about the fact that I got stuck in the snow last week whilst doing a rental property and a builder in his van, shovels etc that lives near me went past me 5 times, 5 bl@@dy times, and saw me struggling byself.
I had to use my carpet rake and my wand to shovel and break the ice and snow away,there was nothing else I could use. My wand is nearly ruined now, the mouth is like a hacksaw blade!!!!!!!!!!!!
In the end a granny looking Grandma Giles came out of her house and offered me hers after I had been knocking on peoples doors to borrow one, no answer, all at work I suppose.So I dug myself out and did her path as a courtesy, I have manners.
I will have a word with him about it when I see him it doesnt take a minute to help someone especially when they look at you and see you struggling in the snow and I will point out that our gutters have now started to leak and no he wont be asked to quote to do the work.
After that rant Mark, my problems are nothing to yours mate so good luck with it.
And oh by the way there is a job for a moderator going on here. Well as youve nothing to do for 12 weeks you might as well apply for it eh.
Good luck
Murky
