The BBC tv programme have got contractors renovating a house in a nearby

I've often wondered about Ground Force. When Tommy starts building that
deck at midday on 'daaay won'.

No way can 2 blokes build decks those sizes in a day & a half.

depends on how hard they work. We had a vegetable bed with redundant fruit
bushes that needed clearing. A local "garden contractor" reckoned on 3
days for 2 men. We didn't accept the quote and did it ourselves in one
afternoon - no tea breaks.
