Dave, youv got a typo in question 3.

1. I dont work on predictions as they never seem to be right!

2. My work has started to increase, very busy and very happy with that

3. I really didnt think I would be this busy this early in the year to be honest and REALLY hope it continues like that.

Not tiling obviously but January was reasonable considering only two weeks working really. Lost volume in January bit more than caught up in February. nearly 600 tonnes over budget year to date. Long may it continue. I guess at least some of you will be tiling my stuff soon.......when it is dry that is. :yikes:

1 : What are your predictions?
Predict it to be a busy year and one that will define me on my own two feet rather than relying on other tilers getting me work as I had done since I started.

2 : Has worked started to increase for you?
Feeling the work picking up steadily. Made a pretty substantial contact in the last few days which should really open a few doors so interested to see how things pan out. Reckon it could be a good year for me.

3 : Has the start to the your been as you expected?
Aye - slow at the start of the year but wasn't too bothered. Been making a wage but haven't made any decent money yet, although it's going the right direction now. Been busy enough all things considered.

Work has started to fall into place at the moment and I can say I'm busy.

This is due to guys I have known for many years, one heating engineer has some large works going on at the moment and is passing his tiling, dry linning and plastering my way.

The future still looks bleak though, many councils are going to have to make some massive saving and there's talk of 25,000 and more council office workers being made redundant in the next five years.

The next couple of years will still be slow for some and a few will fall by the wayside IMO
