I'm off to a funeral tomorrow, it's even worse for him ::)

As for the rain, well wait until the morning and if it's raining too much and you don't want to get wet, then turnover and go back to sleep, if though and it normally is fine, then go out to work

Been saving a cladding job to 1 side for next majorly bad day - 100 quid so that may have to do for days wages.

get up as normal and drive to your first job.  if youre sat in the van for longer than half an hour head back.  if it hasnt stopped by 1, 2 o clock, then start the weekend early.  thats the way i try and do it.  unless youre majorly behind then dont get yourself too stressed

Hi How's things in St Neots?
Hot spot for flooding.
Started my first round there in 1988 had a round of nearly all georgians all new build estates at the time.
It was easy peasy at the time within 6 months I was turning down work from the "other side of the river" bout a mile away - things not as easy this time around.
Used to clean Bourne Hall fertility clinic was a good job at the time £180 usually finished by 2! Oh happy days!

Chucking it here now too. Im home. Got things to do this afternoon. Bank cheques, and then need to do a few other errands.

Had my worst week this week regards earnings for over 4 years. Not helped by the fact my arse fell out my backend Wednesday night and was off all day yesterday with the squits yesterday.

Nothing to worry about though, I have my tax for the end of the month, this rain'll stop some time and there's always next week.

I got lucky, today was nice and dry. It was mostly overcast, but for about an hour this morning the sun came out.

The forecast for here is torrential rain all day tomo, but I only had one job lined up, and that has been postponed.

Friday is shop windows day for me.

Got absolutely drenched this morning.

The weather changed but then 2 hours later just as I was dried out, I got drenched again.
