How far behind?
« on: October 30, 2013, 08:00:52 am »
Hi
Just wondering how far behind have you ever got with your work?
Been to France for a week, then weather, got a backlog of commercial I didn't do until I got paid.
Been paid so working through it but were doing the 24ths work today so about 6 days behind.
And still getting enquiries.  ???

Just 1 round (about £600) to complete before months end then bang up to date. I had to skip a clean in summer though due to holiday and a couple of larger commercial 1 offs, no biggie though.
