Evening both. 
Dull and cloudy again here. In fact we haven't much sunshine for a few days now. At least it stayed dry today.
Got one job done, where the grass had grown. Then went to do a series of jobs in one street, and none of them had grown at all, so had to leave them for a week or so.
Mind you, i was quite pleased to go home early as I was having bad symptoms today, so I was better off at home with the toilet near. 
Much better tonight though.
Hicky. That's good that the hosepipe ban wouldn't affect you, if you are getting the water from your water butts. As long as you are not filling them up from the hose? 
Well done on getting to work on your greenhouse project.
Mollie. I normally only bill that client every 2 months, so wasn't due to send a bill till the beginning of August, but will send it early if they've completed the sale.
The trouble is he won't have the same incentive to pay up, as I won't be working for him any more. And he lives in London. 
(he's the one who hadn't paid the June bill till I saw him in person and he paid up in cash, so it doesn't look too good)
Yes I would think there's a bit of difference in volunteering to be an extra in a film and volunteering for a mission in the army. And at least you got free theatre tickets out of it.
That's good that the filming is now finished for your son. 
Hope you are pleased with your new fluffy slippers complete with plastic pearls. 
Watched CH4 tonight. 'Live Well for Longer' then 24 Hrs in A&E then 'Stath Lets Flats'. That's quite funny, even though it is silly.
