Exactly, I think Barry would have sat him down and tried to talk to him, 'are you ok maaate? Would you like some tea?'. :lol:Quote:

What, so do you find yourself doing lots of jobs for friends and family? A burden of your own making by being willing, able, and available. The only way out I can see is to get a part time job, leaving you with no time for their stuff. And at least you'll be getting paid for your efforts :)Quote:

And it I'm honest a lot of it will be vanity. Mrs. P thinks I no longer do work on rooflines/guttering, but that's not quite true.
That's about right. The only other person willing to get stuck in and have a go at just about anything is my daughter.Quote:

my daughter gets stuck in, and she is even better at getting her husband to get stuck in :eek: fortunately she doesnt read these pages, or she'd get stuck in to me too:DQuote:

Good juicer it is too. It's a cold press masticator type and produces load of juice and the remains are surprisingly dry.
