Silly games

Wednesday, August 31st, 2005

Today I finished my business plan and have worked out I need to invest 20k to start it. This includes everything fopr the first year leaving around 5k before I start to get a return, based on June as being the month I start to claw back money. So sometime towards June 2007 I will [...]

Today is business day.

Tuesday, August 30th, 2005

Started working on my business plan again today, and got about 90% done. Still need to work out some more bits and bobs but I’m getting there. One of the major worrys I have is not getting enough people to use my business, the other is getting too many people using it! I don’t want [...]

Sand and more sand.

Monday, August 29th, 2005

We started on the posts for the fence today, only managed to get three done as we managed to patch (read rebuild, sound effects like from the six million dollar man) the wall up again and make it stable. That means it doesn’t rock when you lean on it anymore, which was a bit of [...]

Day off!

Sunday, August 28th, 2005

Today I had a slow day of just pottering around, planned another trip to the DIY place tomorrow for some more sand and cement to repair the back wall, amazing how much you use to put a wall up! Still has to be done. Called Rahl and he’s up for some more hard labour tomorrow [...]

Suits you sir!

Saturday, August 27th, 2005

Popped out to the local DIY place again today and picked up some different posts (cheaper too) that I can use for the garden. Rahl turned up again to give me a hand in the evening and we got rid of maybe another 25% of the remains of the garden. BVy now your thinking I [...]

Fencing Sir? Where?

Friday, August 26th, 2005

Rahl turned up and gave me a hand today and we really cracked on clearing the back garden out (by now you must all think I have 20 acres or something lol). Waiting all day for the Fencing was driving the missus up the wall, it finally turned up at 7.15pm some 2 hours 15 [...]

Still smoking sir?

Thursday, August 25th, 2005

Today was a nice warm and sunny day so I started adding the Ivy to the fire in an attempt to reduce the amount of trips to the skip out the front.. it worked but I now think I have cheesed off everyone in the street with the smoke.. And I mean SMOKE as it [...]

Do you smell burning?

Wednesday, August 24th, 2005

Right first things first.. The memory I won off eBay.. It turned up yesterday and well.. .. It worked, so thats buggered all those people who slag off eBay up hehe.. It was a bit better today and the wheel barrow I bought for the Garden decided it wasn’t going to play ball so I [...]

Skip ahoy!

Tuesday, August 23rd, 2005

Skip turned up this morning and so did Lemmy! Managed to pull out some serious buggers from the back garden, including a bush that went from the back door to the middle of the garden and was acting as a screen, being replaced by fence panels Friday. Although we managed to clear a fair bit, [...]

One day and counting

Monday, August 22nd, 2005

Looks like the weather is going to be bad tomorrow I have the Skip turning up in the morning and Lemmy round to get rid of some bits and bobs during the day, hope the rain holds off as I would like to get this sorted out once and for all. Won 512Mb of Ram [...]
