we used a Ford garage in UK and I once got a phone call from there asking OH to phone the guy in charge of the garage --- turned out OH's new tyres had arrived and he had to arrange for his car to go in, something I could easily have done :-S :-S :-S

She told her builders that she wanted the extension finished by 5 SEP cos she is having a bit of do for her 70th.

The roof is on, no windows or door, no interior plastering, painting or electrics. She even paid more cos bricks were in short supply :-|
