Not today as it's grim but this was Saturday walking down to the yard.

It was grim in Yorkshire today we were working not that far from York, a place called Market Weighton. Nice to have a local job in the pi$$ing rain all day!

Yes Ratty, and what a feck up it was. The management company who have run the site supplied all the parts we were there to fit it, to be fair they are usually very good, but someone got this one wrong.

 

We needed 2" guide rails, we got inch n a quarter, we needed the biscuit on top of the chamber the right way round, guess what?, we needed the main contractor not to move the control panel cabinet and bury the ducting.

 

Never mind, I did get to cut 300mm off a 110mm rising main before I realised the compression joint was 90mm.

 

7 hrs n 550 miles later we achieved feck all. I'd made my mind up I wasn't going back tomorrow, so I'm having a little sweet number, it's down the smoke though.
