Hello via the back door...
Back to my original question though, would you have any opinions on my calculated running costs?
It is a bone of contention with my French associate who believes that I want too much for the machine.
It is an arse as I am a micro bic and really should change to a regime where I can offset my business costs against unsocial charges.
Still, I do get subsidised housing and good health care I suppose.
But its more than just a job to us.
We already have too much work potential between us.
We want to be seen working for the commune as it will raise our profile within the community.
I have done several whole days of grinding for expats. I charged €350 cash against €480 cheque.
There I had no competition from bigger outfits.
At the mo we have barely 1 job a week booked.
Its all hedges, oversized with a saw and chipper or just trimming on the lottisments.
Its all awnings, gates and fencing frenchy style.
Sheds and concrete pads.

You still alive then?
I'm wearing out fast and not just with tree work!
Cycling commitments, installing sheds,awnings and gates for Castorama plus all the **** Squire throws my way.
I found a really interesting chap to be a third man. Rob Ingall, a tree expert from Monfort. 61years old but grafts like a nigger and gives us an older steady influence.
Cycling 400 km each weekend which is hard so glad the tree work is slack.
You O.K then ?
Stay intouch
