Done a bit of Labouring today!!!!!!!

[Protilers]

I got asked if I would like to help out on a job in N.London......and because of the bloke who asked me.....How could I refuse!!!!!!!
Anyway, I embraced the Olympic lanes and set off to “nose bleed” territory.......
Anyway the floor was Ditra’d and we were fixing 1200x600’s.......nice!!!!!!!
Here is the bloke who decided to employ me!!!!!!



I have to say it was great fun and really nice meeting up with another forum member..........GARY THE TILER!!!!!!
Basically he popped my cherry in the porcel-thin tiles......and they were wonderful to work with.....because it was my first time I had a few hiccup's.........oh well.........

but in a nutshell I had a really nice day......we put down 18m2 ish after setting out......(this job is huge, and we had to work from a room in the corner!).......

and I got an invite to go back tommorrow!!!!!! hehehheheehehhehehehehehee............



on a serious note........thanks Gary.....the pleasure was all mine!!!.......and I hope I did you proud!!!!!!

best wishes

Lee.............
