I have 2 customers who have now had to resort to paying me in kindness,  I have agreed re-luctently  but have had to insist that they go from 8 weeks to 4 weeks,

every cloud has a silver lining as both their hubbys have complimented me on how nice the windows look and have even promised to recommend me to others   ;D ;D ;D ;D


gonna have to ask Ronnie B to sort me some little blue friends  ;D ;D ;D

We had a bad start losing 3 first week of the New Year but last week we picked up 3 which together were worth more than we lost.

Think it's going to be that sort of year.
