One every hour and a half seems reasonable to me. Every hour is probably too much, every two hours probably not quite enough. 

 

Or just ask them how often they want one. 

 

I even make one for the window cleaners when they come round. And they're only there for 10-15 mins!

Tradespeople of FT - what's the average number of teas/coffees you expect to be offered per day if you're doing a job at someone's house? Made four brews for the builders round ours yesterday and wonder if I need to build on that today as they've not said no to any yet.

Depends if they stop working whilst they are drinking it. Sounds daft but if you are paying someone a day, or hourly rate, and they stop for a cuppa every hour or 2 then the job will take longer and end up costing you more. However if the jobs quoted or they just drink as they work than think it sounds about right

Just leave a bowl of water out and let fate decide.

I offer when I'm making one for me, about every hour and a half.

 

When the chap was here demolishing and rebuilding our kitchen and associated rooms, we gave him our travel kettle and some supplies to do his own. The door from the hall to kitchen was all sealed, it was the dead of winter, and I wasn't going outside and round to the back door with his tea.

 

We had a decorator come to do some rooms a few years back, just walked in the kitchen and put the kettle on himself!

Has the font used on foxestalk changed? Looks weird 

Yeah I just changed to what the software comes with now instead the other one that's quite out of date, is it no good?

I have not lived in Leicester for years and years but I have a friend who want to meet up in South Leicestershire around Enderby.

 

Do anyone have any recommendations for nice walks or restaurants or cool landmarks in the surrounding areas?

Are there any dental workers on here, regarding a query?

Go on. Tell us...

 

There's bound to be someone on FT that will know all about it.

 

Is it halitosis?

Have anyone had any success claiming for delayed luggage - one of our suitcases turned up 30 hours after the rest of our luggage.

 

everything is in tact but we’ve had to buy some stuff while we’re out here to cover the first cpl of days.

What are some lesser known things to do in London?

It’s worth checking out Secret London https://secretldn.com before you head down, as they have up to date quirky exhibitions and unusual things to do listed.

Why do we laugh so differently? Was in the pub last night with a mate and a girl in a group on the table next to us had the most extraordinary laugh that, every time she laughed, it made us laugh. To be fair to her, she knew how amazingly bizarre her laugh was and it didn’t faze her at all, all her group were in tears too. Laughter is a truly infectious thing.

Does it matter if you haven’t included middle names on a holiday booking?
 

We go in a couple weeks and my girlfriend is on the verge of a meltdown because she didn’t put our middle names in when she booked it
