Further shed dramas

When I think how tricky this is turning out to be, my stomach flips at the thought of redoing our loft.

However. We have now got a little bit further. The shedman gave us some names to get the roots, concrete and electrics done.

His electric guy quoted us £600!! So I phoned someone else and got it done for £300. Is the word, sheister?

And then the concrete guys. They phoned to say they would do it later. Then they phoned later to say it would be another 3 weeks. Then the day before they were due to come they phoned to say it was the wrong kind of weather for concrete and it would be another fortnight - I told them I thought they were lying and that I am not stupid. And THREE weeks later they phoned to say it would be another 3 weeks. So I said that I would book them in and meanwhile try to phone someone else to do it. 2 days later they phoned to say they were cancelling US because WE WERE UNRELIABLE!!!!!! If you want their names and addresses so as to avoid them in the future please post a comment.
