  1. As it's a relatively small order (£55k) it's cash up front. For larger projects we deal on LOC's.

    No money, no goods or services. Shimples.

  3. Was asked to look at the front tyre on the Diavel as ‘it doesn’t feel right’. Absolutely on the button, there is a 2” wide strip in the centre of the tyre that looks pristine, the left hand side of the tyre looks worn although plenty of life but the right hand side of the tyre is chamfered almost to the wear indicator. That’s what a predominantly right hand, clockwise track day in 40 degree heat will do for you. To those of you interested, talking to my tyre man about the new Diablo Rosso III, whilst it’s an improvement on the Rosso II, the rubber is actually softer so is unlikely to give you better mileage on the front of the Diavel if you are an enthusiastic rider. If mileage is not an issue though, it should stick to the road better so you can ride more enthusiastically :D Andy
     
  4. I don’t get out of bed for anything less than 100k, 40% payable on contract acceptance. Learned the hard way that anything else just isn’t worth the candle!

  6. It’ll get passed to a project manager in due course
     
  7. There's a joke there somewhere, about the GF and what you have to pay her to let you in the bed in the first place, but I can't think of it at the moment :D.

    Seriously though, good on you:upyeah:

  11. Well yesterday morning the plumber was meant to come to fit radiators to the garden room. However at 8.30 we get a text saying he can’t come because the radiators hadn’t been delivered yet. Seeing as he’d got the details 10 days ago that’s bullshit.......they’re bog standard rads that you can get off the shelf at any Screwfix or B&Q, so my guess is he took another job on for yesterday.

    Anyway he’s “definitely” coming this morning. :rolleyes:

    Later today we are supposed to finally have the flooring fitted. I’m waiting for a call to say that’s delayed too :rolleyes: That was supposed to have been done last week but that didn’t happen either for some cock and bull reason.

    If that all happens today then we’ll be able to put the new sofa in the room and then all that is left is the decorating, which is scheduled for next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Maybe. :bucktooth:
     
  12. All the hardwood is being delivered today so the landscapers can crack on with the raised planters and pergola.
    That’ll be stage one of the garden finished.

  18. Well the plumber turned up albeit an hour later than he said he was going to. But I’m pleased to say the radiators are fitted, plumbed in and working.

    Flooring is to be done late this afternoon. And then it’s just decorating to be done next week!

  20. Laid a new concrete shed base.
    Worried about pianos.
    Posted about piano advice.
    Stressed about piano advice and trust of the tutor.
    Going out now on V4 to blow my mind - might pop into BMW to give myself a bargaining chip with SWMBO and her damned piano.
