I work on building sites all over the country from scotland to cornwall

And the type of work we do we have noticed a massive decline for the last 6 months ( i work for bison installing precast concrete floors)

The biggest area of decline is deffo darn sarth

Site work has really slowed down here. Lots of trowels scratching about, remember this in the early nineties? We all know what happened next.... Recession, it always hits construction first

Booked solid for the next year and half and people still willing to wait so no problem here. Think people around London have got wise to the poles and give them a wide birth apart from cowboy customers and they're welcome to each other.
Think it needs a slow down sort of get rid of the chancers and wannabes, also with the housing market and these over night property developers it'll be same as 1992 then its clean up time again
