Yeah you’re probably right. There an out of town company so probably couldn’t be arsed today lol

Re-booked for Early Tuesday afternoon. Got a discount too for the trouble. TBC.

Thanks. I’ll do my best. Just want to get a slab down before the weather turns. Then it will be steady going when I get time here and there.
