I review project documents, do a "take off" of what I can offer on those documents, assemble the quote and send off to the contractors tendering the project. I've just completed THE biggest take off I've done in my 10+ years in the job. Not the biggest dollar value, but the biggest by way of man hours spent taking off the items. Huge. Pretty much spent most of the week on it, a nudge under $600k with all of the gear specified with our name on it.

Won't know until the new year, but pretty optimistic about this one having been involved with the design team since 2016..... ;)


I just closed the deal on an order for 12 rolls of foam tape.

$207.72 inc.

What a ride.


And an order from me....

The fact I saw this post before I saw your order is a bit alarming.

I've developed a watermelon habit. After dinner, four or five nice chunky slices of watermelon. Going through a quartered melon twice a week at the moment.

Cherry tomatoes, lebanese cucumber, lettuce and a couple of eggs each day for lunch, a few bits of feta if we have it, a banana and an orange thrown in there somewhere too.

Stumbled across the "Howzat" DVD set the other day while packing up, I decided to give the missus a cricket history lesson, it's a great series, Packer was an absolute legend.

I've ordered the Bodyline series for next viewing and I'm hoping to stumble across my Phar Lap mini series DVD's.

The Bodyline mini series with Gary Sweet and Hugo Weaving??

Save yourself some clams, I watched it on youtube last year along with the True Believers mini-series (ALP split of the 50s).
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!
