Member Since: July 2008 Posts: 18,042 Send Message	It wasn't too much of a shock Cynthia, as he was aware that there was something afoot, there was less work coming in. They are one of the UK's biggest building companies, it's been on national news so it just shows that if they're affected how much the little companies are struggling.

Member Since: July 2008 Posts: 18,042 Send Message	Dea - when my job does eventually go I'll be able to get my pension so there are people a lot worse off. Hubby is over 60 now, but I feel really sorry for the young lads there who have families to support.

Member Since: June 2008 Posts: 3,659 Send Message	MC Sorry to hear about OH - it must be horrible for him - especially at his age - but one positive thing being a decorator - someone always needs something decorated Renes

Member Since: July 2008 Posts: 18,042 Send Message	That's right Renes - starting with our place! He's in limbo at the minute until the administrators let them know what's going on, so he's going to make a start on the kitchen!

Member Since: July 2008 Posts: 18,042 Send Message	No Dea, North East coast. Why, do you need some work done?
Member Since: December 2004 Posts: 24,447 Send Message	Dea	Report	8 Nov 2010 20:55
	Yes -I do !! I usually do the decorating myself but am 'not quite up to it nowadays' This is frustrating because when I do it it is 'perfect' but, in the past, when I have got the 'professionals' in it is not 'up to my standards' !! I have obviously picked the wrong ones !! I was hoping he was 'nearby' , but obviously not !! Shame !!! Dea x

She has had access to my tree for over a year and sends me a message as if she is contacting me fo the first time each time she gets a hot match Renes I have just looked at your garden. It is breathtaking. I want to come and stay and get a tray and bring back lots of crafty things.
