dusty It should push things a bit, I hope.
Today I've contacted two more builders and both have responded, one is coming Monday to have a look and give an estimate. (Fingers crossed.)

Good morning, grey and dim in Surrey. I'm off back to Portugal later where DH says it's bad weather this morning!

Allie it's no good trying to work with a builder you don't like, I hope you get a good one. Will it be good for you that your neighbour has contacted the Labour leader?
Lona I used to get terrible migraine but I seem to have 'grown out of it'. I hope you feel fine for tonight
Mick I hope you're feeling a bit better by now.

Everyone else I hope we all travel safely today and have a good day. sunshine

Yuk morning!

Fairly bright but not sunny, here in Oxon. I had a good sleep, which I haven't much recently. Feel better. (I've had a colitis flare-up.)

I have to find another builder or builders to give me an estimate on my gutters, since the last started off by suggesting 5K.....I got him down a bit, but didn't like the way he went about it, as before this he was insisting on adding an extra downpipe which no-one else in the road has.....I didn't take to him, and when I feel like that, it's time to stop.

Back to square one.
By the way the council has had a wakeup call about next door, as my neighbour called the labour leader....

Lovely calm sunny morning in Fife after extraordinary weather last evening. High winds, heavy rain, sleet and hail for a couple of hours - at one point I ran to the back of the house as it sounded as if a ton of sand had landed on the kitchen roof shock

Morning all, it's dull so far and a bit dampish, maybe it'll brighten up later she says hopefully

A migraine is threatening, but I am having lunch with an old friend at a country pub, and tonight I'm at the Bridgewater Hall, (Halle) for, amongst other pieces, the Bruch violin concerto, which is one of my favourites, so I'm hoping the headache doesn't develop.

sewsilver enjoy your day.
Ariadne take care, sunshine maybe it will clear up.

kiora that's a shame, but we're 'open all hours' smile

Morning I will probably never post on this forum again because I am off and out by 7 mon-thurs and Fridays I have my 3 little G.C. I normally collect them but today my DiL is bringing them to me so I have a lazy Friday morning well at least until 9.30 when all hell breaks loose. It's mild and a little overcast here in Kent. I hope you feel better soon mick. Morning to the rest of you And a special good morning to you sewsilver off to a ball park later I will be really worn out by the evening. I hope your day will be calmer and quieter than mine x

Heading for A303 once again, in pouring rain.!

Good morning. Another beautiful day here with the sun shining over Kinder. An old friend coming to take me out for lunch today, how lucky I am ! Hope you're feeling better Mick.

Good morning, dry at the moment, quite cold, and rain promised. Off to see a poorly friend this morning, then lunch with friends at Sainsbury's, we know how to live the life. Enjoy your days.

Same weather here in West London, as described by Charleygirl above. It's going to rain all afternoon apparently so must get out before that happens.

Charleygirl Fri 08-Nov-13 08:00:59
