Very patchy start for me this year, all was good at xmas with the promise of a job to start in the new year. Due to Tiles R us messing the order up the tiles ( trav) didnt arrive, then we had snow which delayed it again then no tiles again, then tiles werent correct. 3 days wasted in 1st week.
Took on some sub contract work which paid the bills but little else. Advertising i paid for not working, which i was hoping would.
My dads illness and the fact that he wont stop working means some one has to fix the tiles, he cant do it and if i am not there to do it then he will try himself and knock him self about. So i have ended up doing some jobs that i have no control over. At least its some money.
I have more "irons in the fire" this year than ever before , just waiting for some to show rewards.
My website has just got me 2 quotes, one of which i have won. So thats something.
Last week i hardly left the house and certainly didnt use any tiling tools. The next 2 weeks i am flat out with a porcelain floor, a smalll ceramic floor and a nice 55m2 Trav floor to do.
I am still optimistic about the future and still pushing a few new leads and ideas i have.
If one of the main leads works out then i may be looking to take someone on as a subby too but who knows.
