Diamond Pool Finishers

to the outdoor pool renovation in Aylesbury , i hacked off the coping stones and mortar bed, cut the mosaic tile band all around the top 20cm of the pool and hacked this back to the shell ,i took delivery of a small skip for the rubbish,the cement /& 1 ton-bag of sand,set-up the cement mixer on a sheet,i cleaned out the rubble from the pool , the male client wanted me to re-use old the coping stones, i said ok but it will look naff, his wife said john lets have a cup of tea,then 2 minuets later he came -out with his cheque book and said i think we will have the new coping's mr coulson:lol::smilewinkgrin: lol, so i then took delivery of a new set of copings ,but the dilivery driver was a stroppy so & so (like so many delivery drivers are :yikes: ) so i ended-up wheelbarrowing them 400 yards to the pool four at a time, Judgment for making them have new one's i suppose lol,i fixed them back -on then pointed them -up, the client came out and complimented me for beautiful looking work, and being so clean and tidy,and now i have come home as the weather has taken a turn for the worse, oh the digs i'am in are £25 a night but no brekky, and they seem to have lot's of walker staying there who are walking the ridgeway ,i 'am going back there tomorrow but the weather is not looking good, also the floor of the pool is what we call a hopper, as it is shaped like a hopper,and this is treacherous when wet :yikes:
