        :D Tea is good:thumbsup:

        Last time I worked for a simliar company, I got them the contract for Dunster Castle.

        You guys could be my eyes and ears, if you hear of any works coming up in your area, let me know & we could zap in there with a price:dbgrtmb:

        Means to an end when you want to open your own Garden Shop.

          Conga rats Ziggy
          IF you are up this way, then do call round
          Obviously tea available, though accomodation too if you are up working local for a week or two (FREE) and I am a dab hand on the computer with B&B RECEIPTS :-)
          Free full Scottish breakfast, but no vegan stuff available well just the mushrooms,beans, tomatoes, potato scones. and hash browns

          I will just have to eat the rashers of bacon, sausages, black pudding and haggis myself

          As elated as others with your news for New Year, and also sad at your own business, but again you know what can be done

          I will PM my other info

          Regards Jack McHammocklashing

            Glad to hear this great news, Ziggy. Tea available in Leicester also - you'll never need a motorway service station again!

            Marley Farley - why the pic of Cherry Garcia with a teapot on his head??

              Accommodation available here too (sorry, no smoking :() but I guess your firm would pay you for that anyway. You're always welcome in Shineyland for a veggie meal :dbgrtmb:

                Fan-bloody-tastic, Zigs! Having just landed a nice little job myself, I know how you are feeling!

                And if you ever need a bivouac in the region of Durham/Sunderland, just give me a shout.
                It's not Buck House but I do have a spare room.
