In one of the earlier posts on this blog I remarked that the developer wanted the specification data about the tiles I was going to use. I knew this document was half in English and half in French as it has been requested before for other projects?
They have come back to me saying it is next to useless…. understandably. So they have asked me to produce a document detailing all I know about the repair histories to all my previous floor mosaics. This is to find out how durable they really are, and what kind of maintenance/repair contract should be agreed upon.
This is actually asking me to highlight all the bad things that have happened to me put them in a document so they know all the mishaps I have encountered over a 15 year history of making them.
Fair enough, I have told them. I also put forward theories as to why the failures happened and tried to be really objective about the whole thing. It is actually quite useful information, rather specialist and of annorac type leanings, they have not said anything, so no news is good news.
They were very complimentary about how 'its coming along'. Which is nice.
'Its Coming along' is a euphomism in my world for stopped completely. Which is exactly what has happened on this job. I have to focus on other things now and I am so bored of making mosaics.
