Is that it? A 12.5 hour day + 1000ltrs & you're "Quite impressed"

I was expecting you to whip him up into a whole new business experience while he's still hot! ;D

Did i mention i was the first on the forum to crack the hot system problem and install one myself?
What followed was a lot of pee taking and then they all got one. Even suppliers have since come up with half baked versions, but none has the simplicity or effectiveness of mine.

Ditto the reel.

I can't see the problem with working till 6 on residential - later if the customer is OK with it.  Someone who told me to beat it because I was working up till 6 would not be a reasonable custie in my book so I would probably drop the job anyway.
If customers want to restrict the hours, they can't really complain too much when you charge more to make it up.

That's good going mate...but for me that's nothing immpressive, every day I work I go through 100lyrs of water some times more. That is for 2 of us like. So I would be a little
More immpressed if it was on ur own! More of these guys should take a leaf out mine and your book. All the best mate and keep it up.
