    Sorry to hear that Coops. I really am mate <ok>
    I remember the sex shop talk. Were we not trying to think of a name for it?

    Do you think you can pull through? (that's not the shop idea mate <laugh>)

    We do a lot of supermarkets, and a couple are coming out to tender next week, so hopefully get one of them.

    Plus we've priced a school in Aviemore and a Nursing home too which if even one of those come in, cool order for over £1m, so fingers crossed.

    But everycunt is dead just now, we've got a hotel finishing next month and I'll be paying off everycunt! Which will cost me about £8k in redundancy money (****)

    I've picked up a wee job in Stoke DC, and need a single bowl drainer sink, where you based and I'll buy one off you <ok>

    No bother Coops, the banks are ****in arseholes but, ****ing arseholes!

    I'll ****ing kill the **** I'm dealing with just now!

    I leterally could write 2 thousand words on our situation and how these ****ing fat cat ****s don't support small/medium business'.

    Done a few credit checks on a few of the big boys lately, and there will be more pain to follow.
