For the ones that are unfortunately working tomorrow like myself what time are you starting on domestic?

Are you giving people a lie in?

I'm having a bit of a lay-in too - so I'll get to the first one for about 9.30.

Been working on the van this weekend - fitting a towbar - to pull my pressure washing box trailer! Think I desrve a lay-in

Why?  There's 22 working days (Mon to Fri) in August, and four Saturdays already.

Why don't you just leave your domestic customers alone to enjoy their August bank holiday?  I'm planning a lazy day tomorrow; I don't think I'd want to be disturbed to be honest.

If you're struggling for money, then I suggest you stick your prices up; or if you've slacked off too much during this month and are flapping about the bills; then maybe you should look at how disciplined you are.

Or if you're just 'greedy'; there's more to life than money.

I never work residential s on a bank holiday! I think it sends the wrong message. Commercial now that's a different story.

if you want to work then work bank holidays!!its entirely up to you!!i dont anymore. i used to work the odd one or two years ago but not now.

im filling in a few cracks with cement for my dad on his house(he doesnt like ladders!!)at 10am then taking friends daughter on a local fair then  going round brothers for a family meal!

im filling up my van in a bit ready for tomorrows onslaught though.i love spending time with family and friends on bank hol weekends these days.my work/life balance is well.......eh..........more balanced!! ;D ;D ;D ;D.

take it easy chaps!dont let work and money take over your life!if you do then you ll end up like the guy who put the ridiculous post up about selling his round for a unrealistic price!!(50grand i think!!) ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
