Did you get paid!

I did a fitting job last oct in a caravan for a similar lot out near Heathrow airport.  £200.00  They said I did a lovely job and then gave me the runaround.

Never seen a penny and have now learnt my lesson

I have worked for travellers for years in the carpet trade and in cleaning and I have never been ripped off. I always "Spit and Shake" as this is their way of giving you their bond. My friend in the curtain biz has just been ripped off by travellers and Dave401 was too last year so beware!!
Incidently Dave401 is in sunny Florida (just in case you had missed him).
