Id still prefer to pay someone £30 to do it.

What's made you grumpy today?
£240 to change the clutch, so £340 in total 
now have no money at all.
and the clutch is now really light, prefer a heavy clutch.

:O 10mins a side ??? lol should tak eya 5 mins a side
lol theres only 6 bolts to take off really easy job 
Not that easy tbh rolf. cost me £40 to advertise my handyman services last week. Generated £20 worth of work. That would be a FAIL :bang:
Last year I could spend £40 per month advertising and generate anything between £1000 - £4000 for the month (usually closer to the £1000 end tbh, but sometimes got a couple of kitchen installations which boosted the earnings). It's all gone tits up now

lol...for more or less?
Really feeling the strain in work too much work and not enough me.
Spoke to GF on phone tonight and got grief about finances and one or two purchases she didn't approve of :bang: FFS I am a grown man and I'll decide what I spend my money on
I'm looking into the possibility of moving to be closer to her (south coast of England instead of south wales), she keeps hassling me about jobs and constantly nagging me to apply for them, really not encouraging me to do it.
Everythings wearing me down, my awesome weekend in scotland just gone has already faded into distant memory and I need a new holiday / weekend away
Other grump - main light switch on landy has broke - £20 for a new one, :bang: wouldn't mind if it hadn't already thrown a wiper arm off on the motorway :bang::bang:

Point proven
Not really. There was fcuk all need for them to touch it but they did. Im not psychic so how am i supposed to know that they are going to **** around with it in advance?
I just assume the worst everytime I take a vehicle to a garage, I dont take any chances nothing gets left in the car I never ever leave the radio face in.
chances are the mechanic took for a spin to test the brakes and wanted music whilst he was ragging your car up and down the street

do you do plastering?
i'm in need of a handyman for a few jobs
Not plastering as such. Patch repair - yes.
I'm particularly good at filling cracks :devil:
