"Seroiusly stoked with the work which has been done.The level of detail is second to none and the area has been kept neat and tidy throughout. Even more important than this was that I was offered alternative points of view on how I could achieve the result I wanted - invaluable!"

"The strong young man at the construction site was bragging that he could outdo anyone in a feat of strength. He made a special case of making fun of one of the older workmen. After several minutes, the older worker had had enough. "Why don't you put your money where your mouth is," he said. "I will bet a week's wages that I can haul something in a wheelbarrow over to that outbuilding that you won't be able to wheel back." "You're on, old man," the braggart replied. "Let's see what you got." The old man reached out and grabbed the wheelbarrow by the handles. Then, nodding to the young man, he said, "All right. Get in.""
