So as business owners, are you shutting up shop for a well deserved break between Xmas and the New year, or is it business as usual on the 28th December?

I think there is no need to do it shut down and carry on with your business.

To close, or not to close, that is the question:
Whether 'tis Nobler in the mind to suffer
The abuse and venom of outrageous customers,
Or to take the armchair and sit in front of TV,
And by doing that losing customers: to die, to work
you choose; and by working, to say we
turnup and do more than just sit there.
'Tis a consumerisation gone mad......


Okay, poor effort.. ..tis the silly season after all.

I don't like it when everything shuts downs, Christmas can induced a trance-like state of mind for business owners.

Ok, so we are semi working

Although my right hand man has decided to go shopping lol

These few days between xmas and New year are quite odd. Looking forward to a fresh start next Tuesday

Never to early to start...

...These few days between xmas and New year are quite odd.....:

Yes it seems strange every year, but it's good to play catch up on those jobs that have been previously sidelined.

Had a few calls over Christmas, but it is normally quiet over the festive period as most people know it will be costly to see a plumber on one of these days, One company is charging

Thanks,

If you are a plumber, it makes sense. People need plumbers, don't they ?
