need my gutters cleared and some bushes cut back etc as i am off my feet atm, being on workers comp my employer has agreed to pay for 5 hrs of work to be done around the house, so i book the job online friday night thru who else but JIMS as they do bloody everything. Saturday morning a young fella rings i tell him what i need doing and he agrees to be out 1st thing monday morning, great i think, monday comes and goes, so does tuesday and finally i receive a text from him last night saying he will be here in the morn to mow the lawns!! :shock: once i stop laughing i remind him its the gutters and trimming i want done, no worries he replies cya then. No sign of him this morning then at 1 he rocks up, quotes me for the work then proceeds to tell me he is going away 2morrow for 2 weeks is that ok, i agree, the question is, will i see him again??

Doubt it. Pm on the way.
If you want to go quickly, go alone.

If you want to go far, go together.
