I'll just catch up next week and it won't cost me a penny. I can live with a couple of days lost a year.

I'm WFP went and did my 1st house and that's all i got through, pole pipe froze and hose so called it a day there and then 10:30 ish.

Spent the day doing Janurary's books at least these are upto date  :).

With tonight forecast to be even colder i've decided to take tomorrow off as every house tomorrow has a conny and i can just see lots of frozen glass. Might venture out and do a few hours canvassing tomorrow see what i can pick up  ;)

Decided to have day off (after alarm went off at 7 and spent an hour musing as to what to do!), went and bought some salt, followed by some maintenance around the house and with system.

All started off by a 11.30am breakfast at Wetherspoons  ;D  A few more of these sorts of relaxing days please!

Cold wind and was apparently minus 6 in Worcestershire last night, sure could have worked but up to date with work anyway, would have been starting on next weeks work.

Started about 9.15. Temp was about -3 - 4 by then. Worked all day no probs as I had my immersion on last night so van, system & water were all toasty & ready to go this morning! ;D

I started at 11:00 and finished just after 4:00. Had two people ask me for prices when working, two more to see on Saturday and booked a gutter job in for Sat too. Not a bad day after all. Not sure about tomorrow tho...

and what happens when it lasts for weeks like last year? when your wfp set up freezes again tomorrow and the next day and the next day etc
