Love job

[Whn1]

Ok so my sister and her fella (scummy sparks) ask me to do their bathroom, the only room in the flat thats left to finish and of course I say ok thinking new peddestal basin, bath, towel rail sorted..... Uhuhhhhh they want the full works, its been such a pain from the start and is kinda near finished. Turned into stud walls being built to accommodate for taps, tiling.... The lot! The things we do for love eh? Do you guys still get collared into love jobs?

Id say that's karma after you got people's hopes up with offers of cheap tools

only joking mate, working for family is a nightmare, I don't do it now

 

[R1CKY]

No, you'd have to love your family in order for it to be a love job!

 

[Whn1]

Big job for a freebie that. Looks good.

My sister asked me to rip the whole ceiling down in my nieces (very big) bedroom last week. I know for a fact between the joists is full of that horrible black coal dust stuff, still gotta get back to her when I can do it but she's quite demanding and wants it done yesterday. Not looking forward to it.

My mum wants me to go all the way to Northampton to fit new taps - TAPS!!!!

Don't do it! My mother in law asked me to "just nip over and change the basin taps".

Pampas suite. Taps had been in since god was a boy.

You can guess the rest.

Used to do it all the time but it was all one way.

Just took a pampas basin and wc out today. I had to smash the taps out of the basin as they wouldn't budge.
