Building work a mess

October 2008
The plasterers who have been a pain all the way through have downed tools and left us in the lurch. They are English .... probably moved to France to start afresh. They promise they can do anything and everything for us. But gradually as the months roll by they turn up intermittently and have basically started something in every room, but have finished nothing. So everywhere is now a mess. Eventually enough is enough, and when we won't pay them more money, they decide that they will bugger off. I am glad we didn't pay them more money, because they would have just taken it I am sure, and left anyway. His excuse is that he under-quoted us and that the job is not financially viable. so much for the french devi system. Mark wants to go legal. We take a bit of advise, but thankfully he agrees that even if we sue this company they will just delcare themselves bankrupt and we will get nothing of nothing. We can at least get on and find someone decent to finish the sork ..... but of course it eats more in to our budget, and we couldn't really have planned for this. Life moves on, and we are happy people, and he is probably still a fraud and a scumbag. I hope that if you are reading this, he is not your scumbag doing your plastering.
