(Yes, that IS us in the picture on the front of the card!)

Where has the time gone? What a year!

After leaving the bank for ethical reasons earlier in the year, Tony has been headhunted several times ? but he prefers to remain freelance. If there are any odd jobs you need done, do get in touch.

Dan is doing brilliantly at school and, of course, has Oxbridge in his sights. The Meeja belong to a tribe of nomads, so Dan tells me, and he has become quite a specialist in their study. In fact, Meeja Studies occupies most of his timetable.

Sue has turned out so pretty, popular and clever. The jobs she had in those few days were just not fulfilling and she is now doing arts, I think, with a nice bunch of people in a squad, or something. She must be very successful because she always has lots of money whenever I see her.

Little Jemmy is outstandingly bright (that?s a scan of her drawing enclosed for your fridge ? it?s Santa). We have discovered that she has dyslexia - but I?m afraid the teachers are useless. They didn?t seem know what we were talking about at the exclusion meeting last week.

And me? I?m keeping the whole ship together as well as doing my bit for the environment. I organise nighttime vigils in a quiet spot at the end of our lovely garden. It?s open to everyone, but it?s usually just me and a bottle or two of something to keep warm.

What have you been up to?

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
