Terry it is up here, usually starts to pick up end of Feb. March is a good time to start sending letters out to previous customers and also leaflets. Add some blurb about spring cleaning etc.

Fortunately for me Jan, Feb, March are one of my busiest times. Being a touristy place holiday cottages  ,pubs , hotels etc need to get work done now before the season starts. Having said that domestic work is steady away. My quiet time if any is July & August ,but I dont mind that !

Hi Guys,

The last two weeks in Jan were a bit slow but last 2 weeks have been good.

As for YP I only have a quarter column which has brought in 2 jobs so far this year so nothing very exiting there.

Cheers

Doug

Yes - I have to agree with most of you work is steady, mainly domestic - steady as she goes.
