His reply should include "And as I have no insurance (cause I can't afford it on my rates), if I damage something, hopefully not too expensive, then tough titty matey".

£3.75/hour doesn't leave a lot of breathing space does it? I wonder if he brings the gear round on a bicycle? Image

I'm watching Saints and Scroungers (while I work) and I'm thinking I should be!!!!!

Yeah, they are catching people after 9 years of making hundreds of thousands - how many don't they catch?!

It's theoretically possible to emulsion a 12' x 12' room in one day , assuming same colour on ceilings and no filling or rubbing down required. £99 per day is more than some decorators earn.
