At £20 per hour you must have worked between 5000 and 12,500 hours
last year to make £100,000 to £250,000. That's working an average of
between 100 and 250 hours per week (with 2 weeks' holiday).

But hark! There are but 168 hours in a week. That gives an absolute
upper limit on your earnings on £168,000, provided the £20 per hour
average is about right.

Methinks thou dost exaggerate thy earnings somewhat. Verily, there is
a whiff of bull**** about thy person.

****** - it's a business - you've either forgotten about (or didn't know
about) profit on materials supplied. Do you think the likes of Sir Robert
McAlpine or Kier construction or any proper business just charges for labour
alone?

In that case, you have solved Plankwit's problem for him. He wanted to
know why his business was doing so well. You have concluded that it is
because he rips his clients off on materials.

I am sure he will be delighted to know the answer.

Jesus, are you really a schoolteacher?



I expect you will find that he knew very well why his business was doing so
well. Unfortunately. either you did not *want* to believe that that was the
case - or you could not *understand* why it was.

Either - or even both - will be true.

Then why does he keep asking me? He could say why his business model
is so successful, I would either agree or disagree.


I don't keep asking you halfwit. For some reason you seem obsessed with
my income.

What I do know,


**** all obviously.
if the examples he has posted of his work are anything
to go by, it is not quality.



Yes - it is truly amazing how all the people who paid for the work are
perfectly happy with the quality of it; and yet ****wits who know nothing about
laying decking or building summerhouses try and criticise from a position of
ignorance.


Are you in love?


Avoiding the question again Wriggling Cwispin?

The question is; If I'm as incompetent as you claim, how have I
survived for over 5 years during the worse recession in living memory
and how have I retained my Trading Standards accreditation?

Bertie Wooster's real name is Tom Crispin.
He uses the name Bertie Wooster so that people involved with
Young Lewisham and Greenwich Cyclists and John Ball primary school
can't see what a tosser he is.
