Did you ask 8am Iu why he charged you so much for

limewashing ↑

I did ask him, and he said "We have to deal with the

Inspectors".

Anyway,

he mentioned having to deal with the Inspectors 633 as a reason why he charged you four timeswhat your own man charged you ?

He said "you can never get it passed, but I will get

it passed, if you pay so much" (Answer repeated).

•

I got Sam Iu. He said "You cannot get anyone to get it passed. If you pay me so much, I will get it passed", the first bill was $70. After, I had a big dispute with hig, and we settled får $45. Perhaps I have got the first bill. This is the bill. (Bill produced).
