started dry-fitting and leveling the kitchen base units for the tiler to work to later this week, SO much quicker when units are pre-assembled (DIY kitchens as opposed to Ikea)
Also seems B&Qs all across the land have restocked the 10L Leyland Trade Hardwearing brilliant white, so got three tubs of that at the weekend.
Gave up on the once potential plans to sand and refinish the floorboards myself throughout the house (90sqm or so) - got two quotes right around 3k… but the last one was 9.5k..!! This is in the north-west too, bonkers!

Oldest trick in the book; don't want to be seen to be turning away work, but don't want the job? Put in a silly quote then if you do get the work you won't mind so much.
