The cost of the access road for a new decelopment in Hatton has gone up to £2.2 million. Who got the costings so wrong? 'Unforseen circumstances' doesn't cut it with me - any competant accountant factors these in.

It's usually the lowest bid that gets the contract. Then, once signed, every last little alteration costs the customer a fortune.
I had a friend who had a contract redecorating pubs. If the pub owners didn't make any changes as they went along, he lost money on the job. Wanna bet that he never lost money?
