OK - So I still live @ home with my parent (Cheaper than a morgage), & it's about time for me to have a break from this rainy season & decided to jet off to Turkey for 2weeks (so I'm going to be off of GBATemp for that time - no computer access, unless I manage to find a free wifi spot over there)
I'm told by parent that she is going on a break also - why ? 'cos she's got some builder in to refit the kitchen & she didn't want to be around 'the mess'
Well that's the first thing that got me annoyed - being away with strangers in the house & no-one to check up on them
'Never mind', said my Mum, 'He's a friend of our close friend ''smith'', who's had work done by him before - so I trust him'
OK then - so I thought it'll be best to get the builder in on the Monday, so we're around the first couple of days while the builder stripping out the kitchen - if there's anything that crops up, we can sort it out there & then....
As said - We're all going tomorrow & she's just told me that 'Mike' (the builder) isn't going to finish the kitchen off in 2 weeks !!!
On top of this - she has just informed me also that she is still waiting on the 'written quote' for the Job !!!!!! (even though she had a verbel quote)
[I won't be able to read any comments on this until I get back... but when I do (If the computer doesn't go missing) I'll let you know how it turns out]

- ..But NOOOoo She arranged it so that the builders are turning up the same day as we all go on Holiday !!! (Thursday)
As said - We're all going tomorrow & she's just told me that 'Mike' (the builder) isn't going to finish the kitchen off in 2 weeks !!!
- Huh ???? Why ???
- so why can't the tiles be done ???
On top of this - she has just informed me also that she is still waiting on the 'written quote' for the Job !!!!!! (even though she had a verbel quote)
- All this time I've kept telling her about 'cowboy builders', that NO work should be carried out UNTIL a WRITTEN quote has been handed over
