A bit of a odd story but basically in summer 2007 a gardener came to do some work at our house, well quite a lot of work that he did about half of and then disappeared into thin air. We did try and contact him a few times but he never returned any calls. This morning he shoved a bill for the quoted (but not completed) work through the door. My first feeling on this was to tell him to feck off. Now my feeling is that he did some of the work and maybe I should pay him some of the bill but I wasnt 100% happy with the work he did and we have had to pay someone else to complete the work. I will throw this open to the PH experts, what do you think we should do?

Thanks for the advice guys
I think I will be writing him a letter with a reasonable offer to pay for the work he did do and see what happens from there, I dont want to cause too much of a problem as he does know where I live but I will not be paying the full amount on the invoice.
