C: can you come tommorow as i dont want him to know about it.

M: i cant tile it tomoz, but i think he will notice when it is done :roll:

C: oh right, when can you come over?

M: ill come price it up tomoz, then if you agree on the price we can work out when.

What? You mean you were not just sat at home waiting for her call to come in, so you can drop everything and go tile a strangers bathroom for their price without even seeing the job? How unprofessional :lol: :lol:

That's why I don't do domestic work :wink: :D
