    Local shop to me was charging 5c on top of the deposit money. Bought 6 cans of stout and seen it on the receipt. Dunno what the 5c was for but seems like a ride. They don't even have the bottle machine to return empties to

    I got a cctv crowd out to look at my system as ot has been given trouble with the focus and 2 of the cameras acting up. They adjusted the focus and didn't do much to sort the 2 cameras. I will probably need new ones. I got an email for 102e.... do people think this is too much?.... they spent maybe 45 mins here. I must add they did not install the system.

    2 lads, so probably have a callout fee. The guts of an hour. You get very little now for under 100 euro

    Our Vets charge €65 incl vat for a day time call out. I reckon €102 for two techs is ok for nearly an hours work.

    €102 for less than an hours work is a cod. But what can you do?

    We’re so used to being over-charged for everything (except food) because we can afford it (for now) that very little causes us to stop and question it.

    Break it down and there's nothing in that. By the time 2 men, van, diesel, insurance etc is paid there not much left for company either. Man I used to work with charged 55/hr for call outs. Swore there was nothing in it.

    Just going to strap down a load of straw on trailer atm in field. I'm gasping for air as it is just loading them with the tractor in field. Neighbouring farming company has spread hen or duck manure on 200 acres adjoining and the wind is bringing it all this direction. Jesus it's fairly strong stuff. I'm feeling it in my chest. Warm day everything not helping.

    Pain in the head conditions.

    That stuff needs a plough or some kind of cultivator to be in same field as the spreaders.

    No till farm. So it's a harrow rattling around.

    Ah stop. Time to flee and get some paracetamol.

    A neighbour had an issue with electric gate- e160 off his credit card before the girl in the office sent a fella in van out. He got 2 new capacitors fitted e90 on top.

    2 fellas in van , 45 minutes, travel on top, 102 probably includes vat. Think it's a decent price tbh, a lot of fellas won't touch them if they didn't install them.
