Taking the sledge to work.....

[merlecollins]

The snow has been falling constantly since the break of dawn and is currently about 200mm deeprrr:

:yikes: Tried this morning to get tpo a job about a mile behind my house, but as I'm on the bottom of the V. steep hill and the job is at the top my poor old Master van wouldn't make it at all and I ended up having to dig it out of a ditch after trying an alternative route:mad2:

So came home to make a few phone calls and have decided to give it another go, but instead of driving the van, I'm going to put all my tools on the bairns sledge and pull them up:idea3:Might sound daft and I might be back in the house within 20minutes, but nothing ventured and all that.....:smilewinkgrin:

Wish me luck:lol:

Or it could say " dodgy looking fella steals tiling tools with sledge as getaway transport"

"Tenacious Tiler Doesn't Let Customers Down Come Rain, Shine or even 10 below zero with thick thick snow"

That'll be a nice plug mate, has she sent contact details in too?
