In past Decembers at the age of 50 - 60 I would have done,  on average, approx 35 jobs per week, this December I'll only have done 46.

But I'm now 64 and if a horse, would be shot, as I'm beyond repair, but I'm still going and expect to be still working, to some extent in 10 years time.

[COLIN BRIGHT]

done 19 jobs at an average of 130 per job
maybe its not been so bad judging by some of the posts

EXPECTED TO TAKE £6000,  so wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy down on that!

[Mike Osbourne]

Just fixed the Speedster

And I've decided I'm not good with spanners. What should have been a 10min job took all morning. Also the part I received was 2nd hand  but after having to use the Ninja yesterday I'm glad it's sorted.

Happy Christmas everybody

Same here always find it takes longer than i think to do a job than it should

[Mike Osbourne]

Yes but I wasn't on my hourly rate.

Have a good one Clinton.

Mike

And to you

I put or new bird table up the other day and took me hour and half

[rich hand]

Im surprised how small some of these jobs must be! I aim for 10 jobs per week and wouldnt want anymore.

Derek,
No offence, only joking. You sure look a fair bit younger than my 62 years. Ive felt like I have only been working part time this month, but still managed 66 jobs at a similar average to yours, worked every day but been finishing earlier than usual. I think you have done very well for the short time you have been in this business, way back when I started (over 28 years ago) it took two years of constant leafleting before the phone started to ring on a regular basis. Was it simply a coincidence, I ask myself, that it was also at the point of us coming out of that bad reccesion of the early 80's.
Dave.

Hi Guys

I have had a fairly slow finish to December  although it started busy and the TM eats up work.

I must admit I haven't been too keen on calls the past week as mentally I'm on holiday (if still to do one more job today).

Already made a note. must ry harder in the new year
Cheers

Doug
