Decent people

There was about three-hundred quids worth of work on that one sheet (although I never earn that much in a day :-\), but what was ticked off was a good sum; one I wouldn't want a customer to know about, in case they thought I was overcharging them.

After i made my coffee etc i got back in the van and pulled away forgetting to turn the water off and remove the hose.

I got a bit wet ;D
