  1. Good girl for the tea and stoke the fire up. Stays in all night with little effort since I put in a new baffle! Dog walk and a few other routine jobs. Daughters birthday too, I cannot get across today so will have to do it one aft next week. Got her a new vacuum. Police, Turnover. (I know these are right but cannot get it to 'read', enlighten me please)
  2. Awake early this morning and in bed late tonight after some drink. And I've the wind! I'll be in her good Grace then....
  3. Why am I awake so early? She bobbed for the tea, I'm wondering in what order to do jobs! Rugby on the box this aft and she is of to watch To Kill A Mockingbird with her mum and sister so away from 11 until 5! I read the book back in the late 70's but cannot remember it! Have a good day all. Update on the job front, I took the high paying gig selling big chippers and stuff! Awe, Toe, Barn.
  4. Going for Yorkshires finest while I peruse the papers! Be good and safe please! Off to hers later, still ensuring her mum is okay and daughter with bust ankle is sorted. Been a while since I've been at mine over a weekend. Going to get a call about the high paying sales job - hope I dont get it tbh - decided I dont need the stress etc. Already sorted with a position anyhow. Spoke to Tom last night, he is living his dream in America with the drag and drive community but is now skint again! His rear tyres have got about 2mm in them and were fresh! Daughters birthday on Sunday, got her a vacuum cleaner. Kurd, Sand, Weigh. Messenger_creation_8AC40207-77B0-4666-A1B9-5BAA751F6392.mp4
  5. Cheers Chaps for your support. Bit of a thick head this morning! Will go for a run in the toy car for fits and giggles today, going to get Yorkshire finest and back to bed to digest the Telegraph! Boo, Peep, Rise.
  6. But then, I was always honest in sales too. You cannot bullshine for 27 years! From Lands End to John O'Groats and Dover to top north West, never sold a machine I was ashamed off. Never not answered the phone to the owner, never shied away from issues but have been honest enough to defend dealers and GreenMech when necessary.
  7. Business support role. Workshop, fleet management, machine knowledge and just honest to the teams....and the management!
  8. Having a drink tonight, probably a lot too. Too many decisions that I dont to make. I thought interview went well but do I need the grief of that position and responsibilities, targets blah blah blah. I've probably got 10 years left on this earth so why waste it stressed!
  9. Got a drive south today for job interview. Got decent shirt and trousers ready and will leave plenty of time for traffic. Will give it my best shot! Fought, Knocks.

    Jokes???

    Been an avid listener of the programme for years! Epic use of the English language!
  11. Dog has got low level steroids to start and hyperallergenic diet with histamine if needed. He is an ace dog, obviously nervous but just sat in waiting room after walk about town (country dog), let vet do his thing, then went home without whimper or complaint! Housework, garage and nervous wait for job interview details. Also looking at what Tom is doing at DnD, boost problems could knacker his engine which is a fresh engine, built with donated parts and donated love from mates. Grey and still here atm. Be good folks! Pet, Eek, Hash.
  12. Lengthen it for a start and add helper springs/roll bars! Leave it single cab but add storage for personal kelter that doesn't fit in the cab! Make a bolster frame for forwarding if you wish but a trayback or dropside is more than adequate for chips (with greedy boards) or carrying timber. A trayback (aussie style) with pins would be light too!
  13. Awake early as Caz on the early shift, I stayed at hers to take farm dog to vets. Woody is a great GSD thar has a wonderful temperament but suffers with very sore skin. Poor lad will rub himself raw at times. Tried different diets and various pills but it has come back again, going to ask vets and antihistamines and low dose steroids with a strict diet. Then home to fit new alternator to toy car and do stuff there. Be good all of you! Teak, Ache.
  14. Did more Lasagne yesterday, made my own bechemal sauce, preferred the stuff in a jam jar though! Made a vat of pea and ham soup with yellow split peas. She right rated the soup but it is very windy and I dont need that level of fibre in my diet!
  15. Diane Keaton. Actress, 79.
