    I do over and above for every customer all the time, every visit, sent out 60 individually personalised printed business Christmas cards to a high smick standard and 70% don't even say Merry Christmas back or even acknowledge that I've even mowed and tidied their lawns this week.
    Have had two presents so far and thanked those customers dearly.
    A couple didn't even give a hoot that I was tied up for a day with extreme fire conditions very close by and they live in the same town.

    Geoff, well done mate enjoy your Christmas
    Cheers Garry

    Macka,

    Excellent Mate, those jobs really help towards maintaining a consistent income and make working a supreme pleasure.

    I've a couple of these at a little higher rate and I certainly look after them and ensure they have priority at all times of the year, like next Monday and Tuesday.

    Only two Smiley inserts, go bung another couple into your post Macka.
    Cheers Garry

    Having a Scotch while reading the forums is a special part of the day.

    Sounds a great way to close off the lead into Christmas.

    For me it's 9 jobs between now and C/Eve with a couple of these being larger homes, but wake up to rain over night and into the morning, It's just stopped with temps to be at 35 deg with very humid conditions with grass outside still wet and not drying due to being humid.- Bugger

    Think I would prefer to be in your shoes Bluey with a couple of coldies waiting for later today.
    Cheers Garry
