We are still awaiting a response from them Wangs.If they refuse to remove them we are considering turning down the job.Here are the problems.Real gold Leaf cannot be touched with your hands.It just disintegrates.theres a special technique where you pick it up and carefully apply it using a special brush.Its quite a tedious slog.Can you now imagine doing that with the outdoor elements to contend with.(they were originally real gold leaf) We also suggested doing them in metal gold leaf which can on the other hand be picked up with your hands and applied but in time will tarnish whereas real gold leaf doesnt tarnish.Its one of those jobs where the money is good but where you think,f@ck do i really want this nightmare.It was ok for the first guy or girl who originally did them.they had the luxury of doing them indoors on a clean level surface.Us maybe not.

Money seems to be absolutely no object to them, which (surely?) kinda weakens pretty much any argument from their side for not moving the statues..

Lol, I hate that song as well, the irony is that whenever I hear it, the blo#dy chorus always keeps ringing in my head. I recently got his album and I don't think it's the best. The only songs I like there are "My life your entertainment ft our grandfather usher, live your life ft rihanna anna anna e e e, like i do ft dream zZz zZz zZz and swing your swag ft swizz beats. And not to forget swagger like us. Otherwise the rest are as wack as the word wack.
Fat Joe's, The elephant in the room, is quite a nice album. You heard it?

Wanqa, I get the same message as GUCCI and HOBBS...

Hahaha! Ye same,its just one of those tracks that sticks in your mind.
Ive got the T.I. Vs T.I.P album, and that was a half good half wack album lol, the track RAW is the only track i realy like on that album, havent heard many tracks from Paper Trail, i like Live Your Life though.
Ay Elephant in the Room, im trying to hustle that album from a friend only heard that I Wont Tell track and like it.

Hobbs, i just read on http://www.gildedplanet.com/exteriorgilding.asp that typically, outdoor gold leaf has a mass of between 18 and 23grams... per THOUSAND gold leaves! With the hamhocks which masquerade as my hands i'd never be able to work with material that delicate :| Respect, dude, you must have a surgeon's finesse.

they need to weigh up the pros and cons from their side wangs.these statues are bolted into concrete slabs and maybe they worried that in removing them they are going to get damaged.The chances are they will remove them because practically its the right thing to do.If they dont we will send them a quote that will give them a coronary thrombosis..
Gucci,how do I copy/paste in my default web browser on this E90? can you try on your fathers phone and let me know if its possible.So far no luck googling it.And what I do find is all very negative saying it isnt possible.

im half chines dude,finesse is in my genes lol I learned my skills from the best bro.Its taken years and years to perfect these techniques.Its not everyones cup of tea.My first year been an apprentice all I did was sandpapering and cleaning brushes.Put it this way,15 years later I now understand why that was.If I coulddnt have got through that first year of hell I wouldnt have had the stomach to handle the job.Weve had apprentices through the years and they all thought it was like the shit you see on 'Top Billing' but when they get past that fantasy they run like hell.Its hard work and you gotta have a lot of love inside you.Hard Work=Love.Thats my simple lifes equation.The most important stage of this job is the preparation.The horrible stuff like cleaning,sanding,filling ect.The paint techniques,gilding ect is the easy part.Our last apprentice lasted a month.She was a daughter of a SA mining magnate who went to France and did some persons house with her boyfriend.She came back to SA and thought this is what I want to do (worked corporate her whole life) and once we put her through the paces of the proper way to do things,she cracked like an egg and found a lecturing job at UCT.Was very funny.Trust fund babies are quite fragile things and in most cases not a very happy bunch.Ive met a few in my time.
