Nice one! Had a day off in week with the wife - felt weird having a day off in the week after slogging me guts out in a factory for 20yrs previous ! Still feel guilty for having any time off ;D
Hope car is all good too fella :)

cheers mark best wishes to you as well dude! ;) ;D ;D ;D
from my experience of working for myself(18 years)its good to be able to have a day off when you want!when your lying on your deathbed you wont be thinking"i wish id of worked more!" youll be thinking i wish id spent more time with friends and loved ones.

A record week for us this week.
I'm off to Corfu for 2 weeks on Monday so wanted to get stuck in and up to date. The good weather has brought in plenty of one off gutter/fascia/conny cleans aswell so its been a very good week.... But tiring.
See you all in 2 weeks. ;D

My broker got me a 'shadow policy' for my new car as I had the no claims on my Van (wife has other car which she insures)
So I have 2 vehicles in my name and, in effect, have full no claims on both

Hi Daz don`t want to pee on you fire Mate. But don`t sit back and trust Asdas`a broking company. I also bought a second car the only company that would insure was ASDA a £189.00 on the basses i HAVE 8 YEARS NON claim bonus.Long story that was Dec last year.Jan get a call the putting up to 230.back dated to Dec 2011 . Then in March another letter up to 700 pa some story about non claim on other car .I then cancelled as the can was for my daughter. Got nothing back. I basic drove the car from Ivor heath for 700 quid 50 miles away.I would like to know what they do with you.They are sharks. Keep us informed.
