Just a question! When you talk about a days work are we saying a days proper graft no arsing about, tea breaks allowed but short and proper? Or are we talking a rather sort of lathargic stroll around the job with all the time in the world for a chat an all the brews you can get? Efficiency is what I'm getting at here!

I start at 8 get all tools ready for the day spend a time battening all round and marking my datum lines for my joints etc then I cut my tiles for the internal cuts thenmake my first Mix usually a full bag of rapid spread the whole wall and go for it back buttering as I go. At a bout 12 take a full hour and even have a kip then back on it till 4or5 then home for tea
