260 miles each way today for me, from home (NW Derbyshire) right down to Brighton. Left at 4am and just got home an hour ago
Not been spreading today, been working for a mate's boss fitting disabled toilets. Done 2 today, first one in Brighton this morning, then another in Edgeware, Middlesex this afternoon.
A long, long day. Got two more tomorrow, Flintshire (N Wales) in the morning, then Liverpool in the afternoon so will be a piece of cake compared to today!
Fair play lucius i was moaning because i cant park out side the job. Do you lug any tools around with you? do you want to do a staircase in bristol? ;D

Bristol is about 100 miles away from london in the south west straight down the m4. I was gonna leave my tools on site today but was told it was dodgy so just took me hand tools and mixer, easily carried.
