My wife has the sandwich box at the ready!

Really up to you - normally we don't but so stacked out we are having to do some residential but mainly commercial stuff

Few years back now but..... I worked on the Thursday before Good Friday and got a right *ollocking off an older customer for working the day before!
At the same time she was ticking me off she accepted a parcel from the postman and thanked him!
Do what you want mate it's all weird

I've never closed for Easter, I'm not religious and I don't work for a bank. Nobody has ever mentioned it in 20+ years.
I'm hoping to be closed on 30/04 and 03/05 just after the pubs reopen up here.

Nearly always work it, but only doing a short mornings work tomorrow so I can spend some time won’t the fam.

Phew, got out of that one!
Emailed a few and most said leave it until after Easter.
Got so much work coming in which is good, summer this year will be manic, but just keep going and it will all get done.
Happy Easter everyone.

No!(unfortunately!)😅......I clean it every year about this time ready for spring and summer......to be fair shes already done the whole driveway this week already(which is big enough to fit 4 vehicles on)so the decking will only take a few hours...🙂👍

Hi Daz,
Wow how long have we been on this forum!
70 now and working 5 full days, got a younger partner and a 12 year old son so won’t be retiring.
Luckily that suits me, I enjoy running the business and it keeps me active.
Not for everyone but it’s good for me.
Bit of a disastrous pre life mate!!
Have fun and Happy drumming.

I don’t work Easter 🐣
It’s a religious holiday like Christmas 🎄
If I was working residential windows
I’d check to see if ok 👌 with customers
I’d imagine people will have family visiting in the garden 🤔
It’s your business but for me working 🐣 Easter is like working on a Sunday
As for people having a pop the day before good Friday that’s muggy
It’s just someone that can’t really afford your service
Daz, I took a leaf out of your book and pushed on through some rainy days
I’m right on time and had Wednesday off
😁👍
Happy Easter everyone

Yeah, football, cycling, camping out! He’ll be wanting a diesel heater and electric reel before you know it!

It’s all mapped out for you mate 😁

I worked today, did one full clean gutters/facias etc and another house I did a gutter vac job.
To me Easter Friday is just another ordinary Friday

Did a fairly large office block this morning, far easier to clean it out of hours. Off now until Tuesday. 8)
