So How Was Your Day?

[the diving tile]

Well just finished a hotel refit of 40 bathrooms with 600x600 porcelain, 35 m2 per room, 5 m2 of full tiles all the rest cuts, floor to celling, reset shelving, nib walls. A week off now.

again, quite good, managed to get walls emulsioned, and came across a great paint brush for "cutting in" ..from B & Q of all places!!, sort of pyramid shaped bristles so I could use my right hand still instead of having to use my left,,,not tiling related I know, but hey-ho when you're a wing feather down you appreciate these little things

day wasted today..hospital driver was supposed to pick me up between 2-3pm...about 10 past I rang them up to see if there was a problem..they said there'd been a slight hitch and he'd be another half hour. I said that I'd ring preston hospital to let them know. Turns out the muppet had gone to preston hospital to pick me up!, half an hour later hospital rang me to say that operation would have to be cancelled for today as there wouldn't be enough time to do it. Gotta wait for a new slot now. I was bloody starving all day too!

Been there done that...the beauty of shopfitting.

Which Westfield centre are you at?

I was trying to rip some old ceramics off chipboard in a bathroom fixed with timberflex.

To be fair, the tiles were solid but there were two cracks over the joists.... I have no idea when the cracks appeared.
